Answer:

a) 0.778

b) 0.9222

c) 0.6826

d) 0.3174

e) 2 drivers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sample size, n = 5

P = 40% = 0.4

a) Probability that none of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication.

P(x=0) = ^nC_x P^x (1-P)^n^-^x

P(x=0) = ^5C_0  (0.4)^0 (1-0.4)^5^-^0

P(x=0) = ^5C_0 (0.4)^0 (0.60)^5

P(x=0) = 0.778

b) Probability that at least one of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication would be:

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1)

= 1 - P(X = 0)

= 1 - ^5C_0 (0.4)^0 * (0.6)^5

= 1 - 0.0778

= 0.9222

c) The probability that at most two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.

P(x≤2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

^5C_0  (0.4)^0  (0.6)^5 + ^5C_1  (0.4)^1  (0.6)^4 + ^5C_2  (0.4)^2  (0.6)^3

= 0.6826

d) Probability that more than two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.

P(x>2) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2)

= 1 - [^5C_0  (0.4)^0  (0.6)^5 + ^5C_1  (0.4)^1  (0.6)^4 + ^5C_2 * (0.4)^2  (0.6)^3]

= 1 - 0.6826

= 0.3174

e) Expected number of intoxicated drivers.

To find this, use:

Sample size multiplied by sample proportion

n * p

= 5 * 0.40

= 2

Expected number of intoxicated drivers would be 2

What is the factored form of 125x6 – 8?
NeTakaya

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

125 = 5 *5 * 5 = 5³

8 = 2 * 2 *2 = 2³

125x⁶ - 8 = 5³(x²)³ - 2³

               = (5x²)³ - 2³     { a³ - b³ = (a -b)(a² + ab + b²)

               = (5x² - 2) ([5x²]² + 5x²*2 + 2²)

                 = (5x² - 2)(25x⁴ + 10x² + 4)

Hint: (5x²)² = 5² * (x²)² = 25* x²ˣ² = 25x⁴

Talja [164]

Answer:

31 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To at least buy the Air-Pods she will need to work at least 31 hours. You can either round at the beginning or end, I'll demonstrate rounding at the end.  Divide $278.10 by $9.00, getting 30.9. You would have to round up to insure you have enough money, getting 31 hours
