Mathematics

Answer:

The probability that at least one is a boy is 0.525

Step-by-step explanation:

P(Baby being a girl) = 0.475

Now, if A is any arbitrary event . Then:

as we know P(A)+ P(not A) = 1

⇒ P(A not happening)  = 1 - P(A event happening)

Also,  P( baby not being a girl) = P(baby being a boy)

So,  P(baby being a boy)  = 1 - P( baby being a  girl)

                                          = 1 - 0.475   = 0.525

Hence,  the probability that at least one is a boy is 0.525

I don’t understand this problem
ikadub [295]

Hello! the answer is c

First of all let's eliminate the answers that do not make sense. For A. numbers are NOT irrational because they are a fraction. Numbers are also not irrational because they are a repeating number. C and D are both correct as fractions and terminating decimals are both rational numbers.

34/3≈11.33333333

By using a certain formula you can convert repeating decimals to a fraction. But most people know that .3333333 is 1/3. This gives us 11 1/3 as our answer. So what does it match? It is not a terminating decimal. It repeats but can be written as a fraction. Therefore our answer is C) Rational, because it is a fraction.

I hope this helps!

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q, and p is 25 when q is 3, determine p
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

p = 9 when q = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

p is inversely proportional to the square of q

This means that:

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

In which k is a constant multiplier.

p is 25 when q is 3

We use this to find k.

p = \frac{k}{q^2}

25 = \frac{k}{3^2}

k = 25*9 = 225

So

p = \frac{225}{q^2}

Determine p when q is equal to 5.

p = \frac{225}{q^2} = \frac{225}{5^2} = 9

p = 9 when q = 5.

Why is (5+2) to the second power is not equal to 5 to the second power plus 2 to the second power is not equal
Olin [163]
Because 5 +2 is 7 and seven to the second power is 49. On the other hand 5 squared is 25 and 2 to the second power is 4 when you ad them together you get 29 you are taking to completely different numbers to the power of two and that’s why they aren’t equal
