Answer:

0.00673

Step-by-step explanation:

As each of the 10000 leaflets has equal chance on landing into 1 of the 2000 blocks, this means each leaflet has a probability of 1/2000 to land on the 1st block, 1/2000 to land on the 2nd lock, 1/2000 to land on the 3rd block, and so on.

The probability that a particular block will receive no leaflet is chance of each leaflets to land on the other 1999 blocks, which has a chance of 1999/2000. For all 10000 leaflets to happen like this independently, then the total probability is

\left(\frac{1999}{2000}\right)^{10000} = 0.00673

What is the answer to this.. 8(4n+13)=6n ...i need help
ollegr [7]
8(4n + 13) = 6n
Use distributive property so :8 (4n) = 32n and 8(13) = 104
32n + 104 = 6n
Subtract 32n from each side and you will get:
104 = 26n
then you divide each side by 26 and your answer will be:
n = 4

ipn [44]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B + G = 300 (million)

G = B - 38 (million)

B + B - 38 = 300

2B - 38 = 300

2B = 300 + 38

2B = 338

B = 338/2

B = 169 million <=== Beyonce

G = B - 38

G = 169 - 38

G = 131 million <==== Guns N Roses

Simplify sqrt 244x + sqrt 36x - sqrt 25x
Morgarella [4.7K]
First simplify the square roots: 2 \sqrt{61x}+6 \sqrt{x}-5 \sqrt{x}
Then simplify the last two terms: 2 \sqrt{61x}+\sqrt{x}
Since 61 is prime, you can't take a rational root out of it.
