We are to find the probability of 16 or more books being sold on a given day. So all the categories listing the sale of more than 16 books will be counted for this problem.

From the given table we can see that there are 2 such categories:

1) 16 - 20
2) 21 - 25

To find the probability of 16 or more books sold , we need to add the probability of both these categories. Probability of selling 16 - 20 books is 0.201 and probability of selling 21 - 25 books is unknown. The given distribution is a probability distribution. So sum of probabilities of all categories must be equal to 1. So, the probability of selling 21-25 books is 0.019 only then the probabilities sum up to 1.

Thus, 
The probability that 16 or more books are sold on a give day = 0.201 + 0.019 = 0.220

A triangle has side lengths of 14, 23, and 27. Is it a right angle ?
shusha [124]

Answer:

No, it is not

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to check if the lenghts given is that of a right angle triangle

For a right angle triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides

The hypotenuse represents the longest side

So 27^2 = 14^2 + 23^2

The difference between these is 4, and as such the triangle is not a right angled

What's a integer numbers<br>​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of integers consists of zero ( ), the positive natural numbers ( , , , …), also called whole numbers or counting numbers , and their additive inverses (the negative integers , i.e., −1, −2, −3, …). The set of integers is often denoted by a boldface Z ( ) or blackboard bold mathbb (Unicode U+2124 ℤ) standing for the German word Zahlen ( , numbers ).

Answer...........................
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

9.9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P e ^(rt)

Where A is the amount in the account

P is the amount invested

R is the interest rate

t is the time

P = 8500

r =7% = .07

A = 17000

Substituting into the equation

17000=8500 e^(.07t)

Divide each side by 8500

17000/8500=8500/8500 e^(.07t)

2 = e^(.07t)

Take the natural log of each side

ln (2) = ln e^(.07t)

ln(2) = .07t

Divide each side by .07

ln(2)/.07 = .07t/.07

ln(2)/.07 = t

9.902102579=t

Rounding to one decimal place
