Answer:

7 pizzas and 9 cans of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 7 pizzas because if you add the 25 people plus her parents (That would be two more people) is 27. Then you have to multiply 27×2 that would equal 54. So, now you know you need 54 slices but what you is the amount of pizzas needed. The next step would be to divide 54÷8 that would equal 6.75 but you can't buy 6.75 pizzas, and you can't buy 6 pizzas because than you would leave people outside. You will need to buy 7 pizzas. It is better to have left overs than leaving people outside.

For the amount of cans would be 9 because if you add again 25 people plus her parents it would be 27. Then you multiply 27×1 that is obviously 27. The next step would be to divide 27÷3 and it would equal 9. And that is how you get your answer.

34​% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program. You randomly select 10 college students and a
finlep [7]

Answer:

a) There is a 18.73% probability that exactly two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

b) There is a 71.62% probability that more than two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

c) There is a 82% probability that between two and five students, inclusive, use credit cards because of the rewards program.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two possible outcomes. Either the student use credit cards because of the rewards program, or they use for other reason. So, we can solve this problem by the binomial distribution.

Binomial probability

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}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

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

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

And \pi is the probability of X happening.

In this problem, we have that:

10 student are sampled, so n = 10

34% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program, so \pi = 0.34

(a) exactly​ two

This is P(X = 2).

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

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

There is a 18.73% probability that exactly two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

(b) more than​ two

This is P(X > 2).

Either a value is larger than two, or it is smaller of equal. The sum of the decimal probabilities must be 1. So:

P(X \leq 2) + P(X > 2) = 1

P(X > 2) = 1 - P(X \leq 2)

In which

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

So

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

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.34)^{0}.(0.66)^{10} = 0.0157

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.34)^{1}.(0.66)^{9} = 0.0808

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0157 + 0.0808 + 0.1873 = 0.2838

P(X > 2) = 1 - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.2838 = 0.7162

There is a 71.62% probability that more than two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

(c) between two and five inclusive

This is:

P = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

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

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.34)^{3}.(0.66)^{7} = 0.2573

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.34)^{4}.(0.66)^{6} = 0.2320

P(X = 5) = C_{10,5}.(0.34)^{5}.(0.66)^{5} = 0.1434

P = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.1873 + 0.2573 + 0.2320 + 0.1434 = 0.82

There is a 82% probability that between two and five students, inclusive, use credit cards because of the rewards program.

7. Which property of polynomials says that the sum of two polynomials is also a polynomial?
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Closure property

Step-by-step explanation:

The closure property of polynomials for addition says that, if we add any two polynomials , the result is also a polynomial.

For is

{x}^{2}  + 2

is a polynomial.

x - 2

is also a polynomial.

The sum of the two polynomials is

{x}^{2}  + 2  + x - 2 =  {x}^{2} + x

The result:

{x}^{2}  + x

is also a polynomial.
