Fourteen is 28% of B) 50

Why, you ask? Let's see -

Let the unknown number be n, for 'number'.

Let's put the unknown n next to 28%

.28n% = 14

(Think, what times .28 equals 14? Look below to find out! ↓ )

Let's now do the opposite of the actual equation - divide the two known numbers by each other -

.28 ÷ 14 = 50

When in doubt, check your answer:

To check this, we would do the opposite - Multiplication

Multiply .28 by 50 to get 14 (At least you should get 14)

.28 × 50 DOES EQUAL 14! We were right! :D

BlueSky Air has the best on-time arrival rate with 80% of its flights arriving on time. A test is conducted by randomly selectin
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

0.211 = 21.1% probability that 2 flights of BlueSky Air arrive late

Step-by-step explanation:

For each flight, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they arrive late, or they do not. The probability of a flight arriving late is independent of any other flight. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

BlueSky Air has the best on-time arrival rate with 80% of its flights arriving on time.

This means that 100 - 80 = 20% are late, which means that p = 0.2

Randomly selecting 16 BlueSky Air flights

This means that n = 16

What is the probability that 2 flights of BlueSky Air arrive late?

This is P(X = 2).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{16,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.211

0.211 = 21.1% probability that 2 flights of BlueSky Air arrive late

How do the points of a figure move in a translation?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: В. Same distance and same direction

Step-by-step explanation:

A translation is a  rigid transformation that maps each point of the original figure to a new position by the same distance and in the same direction.

It does not change the size or shape of the image.

Thus the correct statement relates to translation is "Same distance and same direction"

Hence, the correct option is B.
