Answer:

the probability that at the end, at least 5 people stayed the entire time = 0.352

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, 3 of the people are sure to stay the whole time. So, we'll deduct 3 from 6.which leaves us with 3 that are only 2/5 or 0.4 sure that they will stay the whole time.

Thus, what we need to compute to fulfill the probability that at the end, at least 5 people stayed the entire time of which we know 3 will stay, so for the remaining 3,we'll compute;

P[≥2] which is x~bin(3,0.4)

Thus;

P(≥2) = (C(3,2) x 0.4² x 0.6) + (C(3,3) x 0.4³)

P(≥2) = 0.288 + 0.064

P(≥2) = 0.352

Determine and state the coordinates of the center and the length of the radius of a circle whose equation is
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:  center = (-3, 2)   radius = √23

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The equation of a circle is: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where center = (h, k) and radius = r

Complete the square for both x and y:

x^2+6x+\bigg(\dfrac{6}{2}\bigg)^2+y^2-4y+\bigg(\dfrac{-4}{2}\bigg)^2 = 10 +\bigg(\dfrac{6}{2}\bigg)^2+\bigg(\dfrac{-4}{2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=23\\\\\\\rightarrow (h,k)=(-3,2)\\\\\rightarrow r^2=23\quad \rightarrow r=\sqrt{23}

Set up an equation when n is the number and solve:
 10 </= 4(2n + 3)
 10 </= 8n + 12
-12             - 12
-2 = 8n
/8   /8
<u><em>n = >/= -1/4
</em></u>The number is less than or equal to <em><u>-1/4</u></em>. 
Hope this helps!

What is the square root of 4
atroni [7]
Square root of a number is 2 numbers that multiply to get 4 that are the same
first find the factors

4=2 times 2
then find the doubles and write only one from each pair
√4=2

so if you had a number like 36 then
36=2 times 2 times 3 times 3
the doubles are 2 and 3 so
√36=2 times 3=6


square root of 4 can be 2 or -2
