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

Most adults would not erase all of their personal information online if they could. A software firm survey of 480 randomly selec

Westkost [7]

Answer:

-7.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write the null hypothesis (H0) and alternative hypothesis (Ha) from the claim statement

P = population proportion of adults who would erase all of their personal information online if they could

H_{0}:P=0.5

H1 P< 0.5

Let's write the given information:

n = sample size = 480

sample proportion = $\hat p = 0.35$

formula of z test statistic for one sample proportion test is as follows:

$Z=\frac{\hat p-P}{\sqrt{\frac{P\times(1-P)}{n}}}$

plug the above values in the above formula we get

$Z =\frac{0.35-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.5)}{480}}}=Z=-7.85584$

So that the test statistic value is -7.90 (Rounded up to two decimal places)

Answer:

6x²y²

Step-by-step explanation:

6: 1 2 3 6

18: 1 2 3 6 9 18

36: 1 2 3 4 6 9 12 18 36

the common factor for 6 18 and 36 are

1 2 3 6

x² = x × x

y³ = y × y × y

x³ = x × x × x

y³ = y × y × y

x³ = x × x × x

y² = y × y

the common factor are for x and y are

x² y²

Multiply the GCF of the numerical part 6 and the GCF of the variable part x² y² to get 6x² y²
