Answer:

The probability that in a given day the store receives four or less bad checks is 0.70.

The probability that in a given day the store receives more than 3 bad checks is 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided shows the number of bad checks received by the management of a grocery store for a period of 200 days.

The probability distribution and the cumulative probability distribution are shown in the table attached below.

Let the number of bad checks received in a day be represented by <em>X</em>.

Compute the probability that in a given day the store receives four or less bad checks as follows:

P (X ≤ 4) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + P (X = 3) + P (X = 4)

              =0.04+0.06+0.10+0.30+0.20\\\\=0.70

Thus, the probability that in a given day the store receives four or less bad checks is 0.70.

Compute the probability that in a given day the store receives more than 3 bad checks as follows:

P (X > 3) = 1 - P (X ≤ 3)

              = 1 - [P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + P (X = 3)]

              =1-[0.04+0.06+0.10+0.30]\\=1-0.50\\=0.50

Thus, the probability that in a given day the store receives more than 3 bad checks is 0.50.

9. A box of cereal is packaged and sold at a local
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

288 Cubic Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the cereal takes up 80% of the total volume of the box, you would take 80% of the total volume.

First, do Base x Width x Height for the volume of the box.

10 inches x 3 inches x 1 foot      (1 foot is 12 inches)

10 x 3 x 12 = 360

Now, take 80% of 360 cubic inches.

80% is 0.8 times a number

0.8 x 360 = 288

288 Cubic Inches

Please help my teacher wont help

Answer: Choice B

They traveled 250 miles in 4 hours. Their speed was 62.5 mph.

=============================================================

Explanation:

Start at point X. Draw a horizontal line straight across until you reach the y axis. You should arrive at y = 250. This tells us that they traveled 250 miles.

Go back to point X. Draw a vertical line until you reach the x axis. You should reach x = 4. This indicates 4 hours.

Pairing up the two values together means they traveled 250 miles in 4 hours. Divide the distance over time to get the speed

speed = distance/time = 250/4 = 62.5 miles per hour

--------

Side note: unfortunately your teacher chose the label uppercase X for the point, which may be a bit confusing since it could clash with the lowercase x along the horizontal axis.

Another note: the speed represents the slope of the line
