Answer:

Probability that none of the 20 children in such a classroom would be unvaccinated is 0.055.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a classroom of 20 children in one such area where 13.5% of children are unvaccinated.

If there are no siblings in the classroom, we are willing to consider the vaccination status of the 2020 unrelated children to be independent.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,......

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 20 children

            r = number of success = none of the 20 children

            p = probability of success which in our case is probability that

                   children are unvaccinated, i.e; p = 13.5%

<u><em>Let X = Number of children that are unvaccinated</em></u>

So, X ~ Binom(n = 20, p = 0.135)

Now, Probability that none of the 20 children in such a classroom would be unvaccinated is given by = P(X = 0)

           P(X = 0)  =  \binom{20}{0} \times 0.135^{0} \times (1-0.135)^{20-0}

                          =  1\times 1 \times 0.865^{20}

                          =  0.055

<em>Hence, the probability that none of the 20 children in such a classroom would be unvaccinated is 0.055.</em>

There are approximately 3.2
gladu [14]
So, using the number 3,200,000 deaths per year, you want to divide it until it reaches deaths per minute.
3,200,000 divided by 365 (for days)
8767.123 divided by 24 (for hours)
365.297 divided by 60 (for minutes)
and so you get 
6.088 deaths per minute

Hope this helped.

The electric bill in May was $248.00. In June the bill was $265.00. What is the percent of increase rounded to the nearest hundr
natali 33 [55]
1) May: 248$ and june 265$. The difference is 17$ and then you divide the difference with the old price: 17/ 248 = 6,85% 
2) Same method, the difference is 59$ so 27,44%' 
3) The difference is 9,5$ so you answer is 63,3% 
<span>4) The difference is 10$ divided by the original price: 10/24 = 41,66%</span>

On Saturday, many tickets for a hockey game were sold. Children and adult tickets were sold in the ratio of 4:7. There are 88 ti
Illusion [34]

Answer:

49 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is pretty straight forward

So we have the ratio 4:7

We know there were 88 tickets in total but we don’t know the exact amount of adult and kids

So we can Add up the ratio

4+7=11

Now we can divide 88 by 11

you’ll get 7

So by doing this we know there are 7 groups of the ratio for child to adults 4:7

So we just multiply the 7 to each

4*7

7*7

you’ll get 28:49

Now we know there are 28 kid tickets and 49 adult tickets

We know this is correct becuase if you add up the ratio, it’ll be 88

Which is the same as the amount fo people at the hockey game
