Answer:

0.033

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ (1−p)ⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, p = 0.5, q = 0.5, and n = 11.

We need to find P when r is 0, 1, and 2, then add up the results to get the total probability.

r = 0:

P = ₁₁C₀ (0.5)⁰ (0.5)¹¹⁻⁰

P ≈ 0.0005

r = 1:

P = ₁₁C₁ (0.5)¹ (0.5)¹¹⁻¹

P ≈ 0.0054

r = 2:

P = ₁₁C₂ (0.5)² (0.5)¹¹⁻²

P ≈ 0.0269

Therefore, the total probability is:

P = 0.0005 + 0.0054 + 0.0269

P = 0.0328

Round to the thousandths place, the probability is 0.033.

Liam makes soap sculptures of sea turtles. Each sculpture weighs 3\8 pounds he ships them in a wooden box that weighs 2 pounds t
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

8 turtles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of Liam's sea turtle sculpture weighs 3\8 pounds and he ships them in a wooden box that weighs 2 pounds.

The weight of the box filled with the sea turtles is 5 pounds.

This means that the weight of the sea turtles in the wooden box is:

5 - 2 = 3 pounds

To find the number of sea turtles in the box, we simply divide the total weight of the turtles in the box by the weight of each turtle. That is:

\frac{3}{\frac{3}{8} } = 8 turtles

There are 8 turtles in the box.
