Hi there!

Sometimes, like you said, you might don't get the exact answer when you justified your answer. In this case, you need to take the nearest number. So if you got 11 then 12 is the nearest number, just go for it.

Or go back and start over and see if you didn't miss anything.


I hope this helps!

Investing is a game of chance. Suppose there is a 36% chance that a risky stock investment will end up in a total loss of your i
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: P(x ≥ 1) = 0.893

Step-by-step explanation:

We would assume a binomial distribution for the outcome of the investment. The formula is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - r) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 36% = 36/100 = 0.36

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.36

q = 0.64

n = 5

Therefore,

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x = 0)

P(x = 0) = 5C0 × 0.36^0 × 0.64^(5 - 0)

P(x = 0) = 1 × 1 × 0.107

P(x = 0) = 0.107

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.107 = 0.893

I need help with this math problem
cricket20 [7]
F(x) = 2(x + 3), now if we distribute the 2, we get 2x + 6.

we know the lbs of apple is "x", and therefore, the lbs of orange will be the constant 3.

2x will then stand for the price for "x" lbs of apples.

and 2*3 will stand for the price of "3" lbs of oranges, which is 6 bucks.

since the 2 is multiplying the lbs quantity, it must then be the price, so both cost 2 bucks each per pound.

Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is parallel to y = 3x+6 and passes through the point (-10, 2.5)
TiliK225 [7]

1) Line should be parallel to y = 3x+6, so slope of this line should be =3.

y=mx +b

y=3x +b

Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-10, 2.5).

2.5 = 3*(-10)+b

b=2.5+30=32.5

y=3x + 32.5

2) The line should be perpendicular to y = -4x -2, so its slope is going to be negative reciprocal m= 1/4.

Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-16, -11).

y=(1/4)x +b

-11=(1/4)*(-16) + b

-11 = -4 +b

b = -7

y=(1/4)x - 7
