Answer:

The probability that at most 1 car will require major engine repair next year is P=0.3392.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be modeled as a binomial random variable, with n=22 and p=0.1.

The probability that exavtly k cars will require major engine repair next year is:

P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}

Then, the probability that at most 1 car will require major engine repair next year is:

P(x\leq1)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{22}{0} p^{0}(1-p)^{22}=1*1*0.0985=0.0985\\\\\\P(x=1) = \dbinom{22}{1} p^{1}(1-p)^{21}=22*0.1*0.1094=0.2407\\\\\\P(x\leq1)=0.0985+0.2407\\\\P(x\leq1)=0.3392

vesna_86 [32]
Thinking about the graph of y, the rate of change is zero whenever there is an extremum.

First, differentiate y.

y'=6x^2+6x-12

Next, find the zeros of y' by factoring.

6(x^2+x-2)=0 \\ x = -2, x = 1

Now, we substitute these x-values into the original equation to find the coordinates.

Find the value of x.
pychu [463]

Knowing that all triangles angles add up to 180*:

24* + x + ? = 180*

Knowing the straight line is 180*:

180* - 122* = 58*

The equation then is:

24* + x + 58* = 180*

Then solve for X:

(82* + x) - 82* = (180*) - 82*

<u>x = 98* or C</u>

I think the answer is 52% because I got it correct on i-Ready. I really hope this helps because I hate that when you fail you have to redo a lesson. 

Have a great day and let me know if this is the right answer.
