3 0

Answer:

d. 0.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Having at least 1 girl out of 3 children means that there can be 1, 2 or 3 girls out of the 3 children.

So having at lest 1 girl out of 3 children is the same as saying that all 3 children are not boys.

The probability that all 3 children are boys would be

chance that child 1 is a boy * chance that child 2 is a boy * chance that child 3 is a boy = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.125

And the probability that NOT all 3 children are boys would be

100% - probability that all 3 children are boys = 1 - 0.125 = 0.875

Is X-13=x+1 true or false
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following equation provided in the exercise:

x-13=x+1

You need to solve for the variable "x".

In order to solve for "x" you can folllow the steps shown below:

1. You must apply the Addition property of equality and add 13 to both sides of the equation. Then:

x-13+(13)=x+1+(13)\\\\x=x+14

2. Finally you need to apply the Subtraction property of equality and subtract "x" from both sides of the equation. So you get:

x-(x)=x+14-(x)\\\\0=14\ (FALSE)

Therefore, as you can observe, the given equation has no solutions.

E) Natasha's parents want to support Natasha by saving $5000 for her college. They searched up for some investment options and c
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Amount she would have in 2 years at a simple interest of is

$5000 + ($5000 x 0.048 x 2) = $5480

Amount she would have in 2 years at a 4.1 % / year compounded semi- annually is :

$5000 x ( 1 +0.041/2)^4 = $5422.78

the first option yields a higher value in two years when compared with the second option. Thus, the first option is the best one to choose

Step-by-step explanation:

Future value with simple interest = principal + interest

Interest = principal x interest rate x time

0.048 x 5000 x 2 = 480

future value = $480 + 5000 = $5480

The formula for calculating future value with compounding:

FV = P (1 + r)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

m = number of compounding

N = number of years

5000 x ( 1 + 0.041 / 2)^(2 x 2) = $5422.78

A college is hosting an invention camp for middle school students. One of the 1,200 students who attend will receive a laptop at
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: Randomly assign the 1,200 students to <u>6 equal-sized</u> groups. Then select one of the groups and place their names in the bin. Randomly select the winner from the bin.

Step-by-step explanation:

     First, let us see how many bins we will need in total.

1,200 students / 200 notecards per bin = 6 bins

     Now, the first two options do not give all students a fair chance of winning. They are not our answer.

     The last two have a different number of groups. Looking at the calculation we did earlier, we will need 6 equal-sized groups. This means our answer is the last option.
