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

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Well, I'm not the smartest person, nor do I exactly know what you mean, but I have a wild guess that the least you could rotate it is 100 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the fact that it's sides are all equal, you could compare this to a square, which also has equal sides. Its angles are equal, too, so you could measure it's angles (100 degrees) and turn it that exact amount,

I hope this helps you, like I said, I don't exactly know what you are talking about, I am not studying that sort of thing yet.

Can you pls solve this???
Molodets [167]
Since the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the interior opposite angles, angle 5 = 90 + angle 1.

Given that angle 5 = 147, 147 = 90 + x.
x = 57 degrees.

So, angle 1 is 57 degrees.
