If he ate 4 of them, but it means he ate 2/5 muffins,
4 muffins = 2/5 muffins
You substitute x muffins for how much muffins she baked in all -
2/5* x muffins = 4
2/5 multiply by 2/5 to cross it out. Do the same to the other side.
x= 4 *5/2
x = 10 muffins
So there were 10 muffins in all

25% of American households have only dogs (one or more dogs) 15% of American households have only cats (one or more cats) 10% of

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

a) P=0.2503

b) P=0.2759

c) P=0.3874

d) P=0.2051

Step-by-step explanation:

We have this information:

25% of American households have only dogs (one or more dogs)

15% of American households have only cats (one or more cats)

10% of American households have dogs and cats (one or more of each)

50% of American households do not have any dogs or cats.

The sample is n=10

a) Probability that exactly 3 have only dogs (p=0.25)

$P(x=3)=\binom{10}{3}0.25^30.75^7=120*0.01563*0.13348=0.25028$

b) Probability that exactly 2 has only cats (p=0.15)

$P(x=2)=\binom{10}{2}0.15^20.85^8=45*0.0225*0.27249=0.2759$

c) Probability that exactly 1 has cats and dogs (p=0.1)

$P(x=1)=\binom{10}{1}0.10^10.90^0=10*0.1*0.38742=0.38742$

d) Probability that exactly 4 has neither cats or dogs (p=0.5)

$P(x=4)=\binom{10}{4}0.50^40.50^6=210*0.0625*0.01563=0.20508$

A fair spinner has 9 equal sections: 2 red, 3 blue and 4 green.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds is 0.9506

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sections = 9

Number of red sections = 2

Number of blue sections = 3

Number of green sections = 4

Probability of getting two consecutive reds = $\frac{2}{9} \times \frac{2}{9}=\frac{4}{81}$

So,The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds = $1- \frac{4}{81}=\frac{77}{81}=0.9506$

Hence The Probability of not getting two consecutive reds is 0.9506
