32 percent of the customers of a fast food chain order the Whopper, French fries and a drink. A random sample of 10 cash registe

weqwewe [10]

Answer: 0.0023

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the binomial variable that represents the number of receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered.

probability of success p = 32% = 0.32

Sample size : n= 10

Binomial probability function :

$P(X=x)= \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Now, the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered :

$P(X=8)=\ ^{10}C_8(0.32)^8(1-0.32)^2\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{8!2!}(0.32)^8(0.68)^2\\\\=5\times9(0.0000508414176684)\\\\=0.00228786379508\approx0.0023$

hence, the required probability = 0.0023

what is the common number to be subtracted from each term of the ratio 11:8 to get the new ratio 2:1.?

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

5 should be subtracted from each term

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{11-x}{8-x}=\frac{2}{1}$

Cross multiply,

1 * (11 - x) = 2*(8-x)

11 -x = 2*8 - 2*x

11 - x = 16 - 2x

Subtract 11 from both sides,

-x = 16 - 2x - 11

-x = 5 - 2x

Add 2x to both sides

-x +2x = 5 - 2 + 2x

x = 5

[FIRST TO ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST] Here is a rectangle ABCD. The length of the rectangle is increased by 10%. The width of the re

erastovalidia [21]

New length = 30x110% = 33cm
new width = 20x105% = 21cm

original perimeter = 30x2 + 20x2
= 60 + 40 = 100
new perimeter = 33x2 + 21x2
= 66 + 42 = 108

increase in perimeter = 108-100 = 8
percentage increase = 8/100 x 100% = 8%
