Given:
The three lengths in the options.
To find:
Which three lengths could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle?
Solution:
If the sum of two smaller sides is greater than the largest side, then the three sides can form a triangle otherwise the triangle is not possible.
In option A, the three sides are 4 cm, 8 cm, 13 cm. Here, the largest side is 13 cm.
Sum of two smaller sides is:
So, the triangle is not possible.
In option B, the three sides are 13 cm, 11 cm, 23 cm. Here, the largest side is 23 cm.
Sum of two smaller sides is:
So, the triangle is possible.
In option C, the three sides are 5 cm, 18 cm, 12 cm. Here, the largest side is 18 cm.
Sum of two smaller sides is:
So, the triangle is not possible.
In option D, the three sides are 25 cm, 8 cm, 16 cm. Here, the largest side is 25 cm.
Sum of two smaller sides is:
So, the triangle is not possible.
Therefore, the correct option is B. The three lengths 13 cm, 11 cm, 23 cm could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Answer:
The probability that there exist 60 or more defected children is
Looking at the value for this probability we see that it is not so small to the point that the observation of this kind would be a rare occurrence
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
in every 1000 children a particular genetic defect occurs to 1
The number of sample selected is
The probability of observing the defect is mathematically evaluated as
The probability of not observing the defect is mathematically evaluated as
The mean of this probability is mathematically represented as
Substituting values
The standard deviation of this probability is mathematically represented as
Substituting values
the probability of detecting defects can be represented in as normal distribution like
in standardizing the normal distribution the normal area used to approximate is the right of 59.5 instead of 60 because x= 60 is part of the observation
The z -score is obtained mathematically as
The area to the left of z = 1.35 on the standardized normal distribution curve is 0.9099 obtained from the z-table shown z value to the left of the standardized normal curve
Note: We are looking for the area to the right i.e 60 or more
The total area under the curve is 1
So
