Sean is correct, because he adds 0 to -100, which equals to -100

<em />I dont think Candice is correct however, since you cannot repeat the numbers
(and adding negative numbers is incorrect im assuming)

hope this helps

Factoring trinomials
Tcecarenko [31]

c^22c^2 + 13c +21 \\4c^2 + 13(2)c + 42\\(2c + 6)(2c+7)\\(c+3)(2c+7)


This is a way to factoring trinomials (there exist different equivalent methods).

Multiply the trinomial but the term accompanying  c^2. This is the second line. Then, you could take the square of the 4c^2, ant try to create a factor () () that will correspond to the expression in the second line. That is, we want 4c^2 + 13(2) c + 42 = (2c + ?) (2c + ?)

In ? we put the corresponding numbers that, if we multiply them we will obtain 42, and if we add them we will obtain 13. This numbers are 6 and 7. Then, we have (2c + 6) (2c +7)

The last step is divide by the number that we multipy in the first step.

10.5% of the population is 65 or older. Find the probability that the following number of persons selected at random from 25 peo
julia-pushkina [17]

Given:

The sample size n=25

Probability of population is 65 or older is 10.5%.

This date follows the binomial distribution,

\begin{gathered} n=25,p=0.105 \\ X\rightarrow B(n=25,p=0.105) \end{gathered}

To find the probability that at most 2 are 65 or older,

\begin{gathered} P(X=x)=^nC_x(p)^x(1-p)^{n-x} \\ P(0\leq X\leq2)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) \\ =^{25}C_0(0.105)^0(1-0.105)^{25-0}+^{25}C_1(0.105)^1(1-0.105)^{25-1}+^{25}C_2(0.105)^2(1-0.105)^{25-2} \\ =0.0625+0.1832+0.2579 \\ =0.5036 \\ \approx0.504 \end{gathered}

Answer: Probability is 0.504 .

A livestock company reports that the mean weight of a group of young steers is 1143 pounds with a standard deviation of 88 pound
malfutka [58]

Answer:

<em>a) P(x<1200)=74.14%</em>

<em>b) P(1100<X<1250)=57.54%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Normal Distribution</u>

The normal distribution, also known as the bell curve, is a distribution that occurs naturally in many situations of life. We use the model N(\mu,\sigma) to understand the behavior of some real-life variables. Where \mu is the mean value and \sigma is the standard deviation.

In our case, we have

\mu=1143,\ \sigma=88

And are required to find the percentage of steers whose weigh lie within a given range. We must use some sort of table or digital means to compute the values because the normal distribution cannot be calculated directly by a formula. We use the NORMDIST (or NORM.DIST) formula for Excel which gives us the left tail of the area behind the bell curve, i.e. the cumulative percentage for a give value of X. The formula has the form

NORM.DIST(x,mean,standard_dev,cumulative)

a) X<1200

The formula is used with the following parameters

NORM.DIST(1200,1143,88,true)

and we get

P(X

b) We need to compute P(1100<X<1250). To do this, we calculate both left tails and the subtract them

NORM.DIST(1100,1143,88,true)=0.3125

NORM.DIST(1250,1143,88,true)=0.8880

P(1100

\boxed{P(1100
