Answer:

Here, we have:

P(5 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C5 x (0.85)^5 x (1 - 0.85)^3 = 0.084

P(6 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C6 x (0.85)^6 x (1 - 0.85)^2 = 0.238

P(7 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C7 x (0.85)^7  x (1 - 0.85)^1  = 0.385

P(8 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C8 x (0.85)^8 x (1 - 0.85)^0 = 0.272

Add up those above, then the probability that it will snow AT LEAST five of those days in February:

P = 0.084+ 0.238 + 0. 385 + 0.272 = 0.979

Hope this helps!

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1 Factoring 4y2-12y+9

The first term is, 4y2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -12y its coefficient is -12 .
The last term, "the constant", is +9

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • 9 = 36

Step-2 : Find two factors of 36 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -12 .

-36 + -1 = -37
-18 + -2 = -20
-12 + -3 = -15
-9 + -4 = -13
-6 + -6 = -12 That's it
