<span>a) This is the sum of the probabilities of winning in 1, 2 or 3 boxes. 0.02 + (0.98*0.02) + (0.98*0.98*0.02) = 0.0588 b) Exactly three boxes requires the first two to lose. (0.98*0.98*0.02) = 0.0192 c) This is the complement of answer for a). 1-.0588 = .9412</span>

Show both decimal places (5.06).

a. the cost of a call for six minutes is 0.70.

b.the cost of a 14-minute call is 2.62.

c.the cost of a 9 ½2-minute call is 1.66.

<h3>How to find the cost of each call ?</h3>

given that

rate schedule for an m-minute call from any of its pay phones 0.70.

c(m) = 0.70 when m<=6

c(m) = 0.70+ 0.24(m-6) when m>6 & m is an integer

c(m) = 0.70+0.24((m-6)+1) when m>6 & m is not an integer.

a. to find the cost of a call for six minutes.

already given that c(m) =0.70 when m=6.

Therefore, the cost of a call for six minutes is 0.70.

b. to find the cost of a 14-minute call.

according to given information

c(14) = 0.70 + 0.24(m - 6) \\ c(14) = 0.70 + 0.24(14 \: - 6)  \\c(14) = 0.70 + (0.24 \times 14) - (0.24 \times 6) \\c(14) = 0.70 + (3.36 - 1.44) \\ c(14) = 0.70 + 1.92 \\ c(14) = 2.62

Therefore,the cost of a 14-minute call is 2.62.

c.to find the cost of a 9 ½2-minute call

according to given information

c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 0.70 + 0.24((9 \frac{1}{2} 2 - 6) + 1) \\ c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 0.70 + 0.24((9 - 6) + 1) \\ c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 0.70 + 0.24(3+ 1) \\ c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 0.70 + 0.24(4) \\ c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 0.70 + 0.96 \\ c(9  \frac{1}{2} 2) = 1.66

Therefore,the cost of a 9 ½2-minute call is 1.66.

How many students were asked? How do you know?<br><br><br> Find the median for these data.
kkurt [141]

Answer:

a=10 students because there are 10 answers.

b=5

Step-by-step explanation:

a=10 students because there are 10 answers.

b, you need to list the numbers all out and rearrange them from smallest to largest.

0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 13, 15

The median means the middle which is 3 and 7

Because we have two numbers, we need to find the middle number of 3 and 7 which is <u><em>5</em></u>
