Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  survey showed that 72​% of adults need correction​ (eyeglasses, contacts,​ surgery, etc.) for their eyesight

X - number of people who need correction for their eyesight

X is binomial since each event is independent and there are only two outcmes.

X (18, 0.72)

Required probability = the probability that no more than 1 of them need correction for their eyesight.

=P(X=0)+P(X=1)=0.00000296+0.000137

=0.00014

Yes 1 is a significantly low number as probability is almost zero.

Explain why a change from 20 to 40 is a 100% increase, but a change from 40 to 20 is a 50% decrease.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Because 20 has to be doubled to become 40. While 40 is twice as much as 20 so you just divide 40 by 20 to get 50%.

Explanation:

20 x 20 = 40 = 100%

40 / 20 = 50%
