Answer:

1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the students receive different versions of the math namely A, B, C and D.

So, the probability that a student receives version A = \frac{1}{4}.

Thus, the probability that the student does not receive version A = 1-\frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}.

So, the possibilities that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A are,

1) 3 receives version A and 2 does not receive version A

2) 4 receives version A and 1 does not receive version A

3) All 5 students receive version A

Then the probability that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is given by,

\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}

= (\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})^2+(\frac{1}{4})^4\times (\frac{3}{4})+(\frac{1}{4})^5

= (\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})[\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{1}{4})^2]

= (\frac{3}{4^4})[1+\frac{1}{16}]

= (\frac{3}{256})[\frac{17}{16}]

= 0.01171875 × 1.0625

= 0.01245

Thus, the probability that at least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is 0.0124

So, in percent the probability is 0.0124 × 100 = 1.24%

To the nearest tenth, the required probability is 1.2%.

The total amount of spending per​ year, in​ billions, on pets in a certain country x years after 2000 is given by the following
Kamila [148]

Answer:

40.4502 billion dollars

51.3432 billion dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total amount spent in billions in pets x years after year, 2000 ;

P(x)=2.1786x + 25.2

Amount spent in 2007 ;

x = 2007 - 2000 = 7 years

Put x = 7 in the equation :

P(7)=2.1786(7) + 25.2 = 40.4502

Amount spent in 2012 :

x = 2012 - 2000 = 12 years

Put x = 12 in the equation :

P(12) = 2.1786(12) + 25.2 = 51.3432

The amount spent in billik dollars on pets in :

2007 = $404502 billion

2012 = $51.3432 billion

ankoles [38]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

15.) -7x + 6 (x - 8/2) - 2(x + 3) + 10

-7x + 6 (x - 4) - 2(x + 3) + 10

-7x + 6x - 24 - 2x - 6 + 10

Bring like terms together

-7x + 6x - 2x - 24 - 6 + 10

-3x - 20

16.) B, C, D

B. 3 (x + 2) + 4x

3x + 6 + 4x = 7x + 6

C. -2 + 4(x + 3)

-2 + 4x + 12 = 4x + 10

D. 3x + 5(x - 1)

3x + 5x - 5

8x - 5

17.) A, B, D

A. 1/5(x - 50)

1/5x - 10

B. 1/6(-x + 12)

-1/6x + 2

D. 1/2(x + 16)

1/2x + 8

This scatter plot shows the number of baskets made and the time in minutes that has passed.
irina1246 [14]

Scatter plots are used to relate variables using scattered dots.

The best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets

From the graph, we can see that the number of baskets made in 14 minutes is 12.

Also, from the graph; as the minutes increases, the number of baskets either remain the same or increases.

This means that, for 16 minutes, the number of baskets would either be 12 (same as 14 minutes) or greater.

The closest to 12 baskets in the option is 14.

Hence, the best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets
