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

Evaluate A2 for A = -4
vekshin1
Hello there!

Evaluate a²  for a = -4

The first step we need to do is replace a by -4

So we have (-4)²

Now what you have realize is that we need to multiply -4 by itself twice.

So it should looks like this:

-4 * -4

The rules says that when we have minus * minus, the answer is positive.

So we have -4 * -4 = 16

Answer: 16

I hope this helps!

If gas costs $3.15 per gallon, how many whole gallons of gas could you buy with $27.00?
Volgvan

Answer: 8 whole gallons.

Step-by-step explanation: If you have only $27.00 and you need to buy gas, but each gallon is $3.15, then you just need to divide your total amount ($27.00) by your cost per gallon ($3.15), and you will get about 8.6 gallons, however this question asks for how many WHOLE gallons you can get, so all you need to do is round down to fit your budget, leaving money for only 8 whole gallons.

WORK: ($27.00) / ($3.15) = 8.6 gallons
