PolarNik [594]

Answer: 2730

---------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

A shortcut way is to start at 15 and count down til you reach three values. So that means you'll have 15, 14, 13 which multiplies out to...

15*14*13 = 2730

Or you can use the nPr formula, with n = 15 and r = 2, to get the same answer

nPr = (n!)/((n-r)!)
15P3 = (15!)/((15-3)!)
15P3 = (15!)/(12!)
15P3 = (15*14*13*12!)/(12!)
15P3 = 15*14*13
15P3 = 2730

Which expression is equivalent to n2 + 26n + 88 for all values of n?

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Option B is correct.

The expression which is equivalent to $n^2+26n+88$ is; $(n+22)(n+4)$

Explanation:

Given the equation: $n^2+26n+88$ for all values of n.

The quadratic equation in this form; $ax^2+bx+c =0$

First find two numbers that multiply to give ac and add to give b.

From the given equation;

a =1 , b = 26 and c =88

then,

the two number that multiply to give ac =88 is, 22 or 4

and they add up to give b=26 (i.e 22+4)

Now, rewrite the middle term i.e 26n with 22n and 4n , we have

$n^2+22n+4n+88=0$

Now, factor the first two terms and last two terms,

$n(n+22)+4(n+22)$

we see that $(n+22)$ is common to both terms so, we have;

$(n+22)(n+4)$

Therefore, the expression $(n+22)(n+4)$ is equivalent to $n^2+26n+88$

Check:

(n+4)(n+22) = $n\cdot n+ 22n+4n+88$ = $n^2+26n+88$ [ True]

A new restaurant with 134 seats is being planned. Studies show that 62% of the customers demand a smoke-free area. How many se

zzz [600]

Answer: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of seats planned in new restaurant =134

The percentage of customers demand a smoke-free area = 62%

It can also be written as $62\%=\dfrac{62}{100}=0.62$

The mean of this binomial distribution will be :-

$\mu=np\\\\\mu=(134)(0.62)=83.08$

Standard deviation:-

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}\\\\\Rightarrow\sigma=\sqrt{134(0.62)(0.38)}\approx5.6$

Now, the number of seats should be in the non-smoking area in order to be very sure of having enough seating there :-

$\mu+3\sigma=83.08+3(5.6)=99.88\approx100$
