Answer:

0.00391

Step-by-step explanation:

67% of adults have health insurance.

Adults that do not have health insurance = 100 - 67 = 33% = 0.33

Number of adults selected at random = 5

Probability that 5 adults selected at random all do not have insurance = 0.33^5

= 0.00391

Answer: P = 0.0039135

To percentage

P = 0.0039135× 100%

P = 0.39%

Therefore the probability that the 5 adults selected at random from the town all do not have health insurance is

P = 0.0039 or 0.39%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Percentage of adult with health insurance = 67%

Percentage of adult without health insurance = 100% - 67% = 33%

The probability that 5 adults selected at random don't have health insurance is P.

For each selection the chances of selecting an adult without health insurance is f' = 0.33

f' = fraction of adults without health insurance.

For the five selection, the probability of selecting adults without health insurance five times is

P = (f')^5 = (0.33)^5

P = 0.0039135

To percentage

P = 0.0039135× 100%

P = 0.39%

Therefore the probability that the 5 adults selected at random from the town all do not have health insurance is

P = 0.0039 or 0.39%

Two trains leave a town at the same time heading in opposite directions. One train is traveling 12 mph faster than the
klemol [59]

Answer:

I'm going to paint you a picture in words of what this looks like on paper.  We have a train leaving from a point on your paper heading straight west.  We have another train leaving from the same point on your paper heading straight east.  This is the "opposite directions" that your problem gives you.  

Now let's make a table:

                distance       =        rate      *       time

Train 1

Train 2

We will fill in this table from the info in the problem then refer back to our drawing.  It says that one train is traveling 12 mph faster than the other train.  We don't know how fast "the other train" is going, so let's call that rate r.  If the first train is travelin 12 mph faster, that rate is r + 12.  Let's put that into the table

              distance        =        rate        *        time

Train 1                                        r

Train 2                                    (r + 12)

Then it says "after 2 hours", so the time for both trains is 2 hours:

         

              distance        =        rate        *        time

Train 1                                        r           *          2

Train 2                                  (r + 12)       *          2

Since distance = rate * time, the distance (or length of the arrow pointing straight west) for Train 1 is 2r.  The distance (or length of the arrow pointing straight east) for Train 2 is 2(r + 12) which is 2r + 24.  The distance between them (which is also the length of the whole entire arrow) is 232.  Thus:

2r + 2r + 24 = 232 and

4r = 208 so

r = 52

This means that Train 1 is traveling 52 mph and Train 2 is traveling 12 miles per hour faster than that at 64 mph

Evaluate twenty-five minus three x for x equals zero, one, two, three, and four. Which of the following correctly describes the
laiz [17]

Answer:

You take turns plugging in each number for your answers. I’ll list them below.

6(0) - (0)2 = 0

6(1) - (1)2 = 4

6(2) - (2)2 = 8

6(3) - (3)2 = 12

6(4) - (4)2 = 16

6(5) - (5)2 = 20

6(6) - (6)2 = 24

The pattern I’ve noticed is every time you increase the value from the previous meaning for x, the solution increases by 4. I hope this helps and let me know if I’m right.

Answer:

15 rentals

Step-by-step explanation:

You can (and may be expected to) set up an equation that equates the total cost at one store to the total cost at the other store. When you work through the solution of this equation, you find that the "break even" number of rentals is the ratio of the difference in fixed cost (setup fee) to the difference in per-use cost (rental charge).

Here, that ratio is ...

(15.00 -7.50)/(2.25 -1.75) = 7.50/0.50 = 15

15 rentals will make the total costs the same.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:     \dfrac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that probability for any event = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Given : Charlotte has 6 cherry candies, 3 grape candies, and 3 lime candies.

I..e Total pieces of candies she has = 6+3+3=  12

Now , If Charlotte randomly pulls one piece of candy out of the bag, what is the probability that it will be cherry is given by :-

\text{P(cherry)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of cherries}}{\text{Total candies}}\\\\=\dfrac{6}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}

Hence, the  probability that it will be cherry is \dfrac{1}{2} .
