Answer:

a.  0.6588

b. 0.3978

c. 0. 279

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question the success and failure are given the number of outcomes is fixed so binomial distribution can be applied.

Here success=  p = 12 % or 12/100 = 0.12

failure = q= 1-p = 1-0.12 = 0.88

n= 10

Using binomial probability distribution

a. Probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1 is calculated as:

P (x=0,1) = 0.12 ⁰(0.88)¹⁰10 C0  + 0.12 (0.88)⁹ 10 C1=  1* 0.279 * 1  + 0.12 ( 0.3165) 10 =  0. 279 + 0.3978=  0.6588

b. Probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos is calculated as

P (x=1) =  0.12 (0.88)⁹ 10 C1=  0.12 ( 0.3165) 10 =  0.3978

c. Probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos is

P (x=0) = 0.12 ⁰(0.88)¹⁰10 C0  =  1* 0.279 * 1   =  0. 279

A biker travels the 120 mi from New York , NY to Wilmington, DE in 8 hours. A bus, a truck, and a rider on a horse take the same
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

First, remember the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time.

We know that the distance is 120mi.

A) For the biker we know that:

Time  = 8hours.

Speed = Distance/Time = 120mi/8h = 15 mi/h.

B) For the bus we know that:

Time = 2 hours.

Speed = Distance/Time = 120mi/2h = 60 mi/h.

C) For the truck we know that:

Time = 2.5 hours.

Speed = Distance/Time = 120mi/2.5h = 48 mi/h.

D) For the rider on a horse we know that:

Time = 18.75 hours.

Speed = Distance/Time = 120mi/18.75h = 6.4 mi/h.

E) The equation for the speed is:

Speed = Distance/Time.

You can see that time is in the denominator, this means that if for a fixed distance, the time increases, then the denominator increases, which would imply that the speed decreases.

Then the speed is inversely proportional to the time when the distance is fixed.
