20% = 1/5
40% = 2/5

1/5 x 2/5 = 2/25
2/25 = 8%

There is an 8% chance that it will rain on both Thursday and Friday.

student randomly receive 1 of 4 versions(A, B, C, D) of a math test. What is the probability that at least 3 of the 5 student te

alexdok [17]

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%.

Write a verbal expression for 3n - 8.

Alchen [17]

(B) 8 less than the product of 3 and n

Here, we are given an equation 3n - 8

Let us consider each of the options one by one

(A) the product of 3, n and 8 will be written as 24n. Hence this isn't the correct answer.

(B) 8 less than the product of 3 and n will be written as 3n - 8. This matches our equation and hence is the correct answer.

(C) n minus 8 times 3 will be written as 24 - n. Hence, this is also incorrect.

(D) 3 times n less than 8 will be written as 8 - 3n. Thus, this is also eliminated.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

20liters of mixture contain milk nad water in the ratio 5:3 if 4liters of the mixture are replaced by 4 liters of milk find the

Finger [1]

Answer:

the new ratio milk/water is 14:6 or 7:3

Step-by-step explanation:

milk/water=5/3

milk +water=5+3=8

ratio of milk=5/8 and ratio of water=3/8

if 4 liter removed from mixture then: 20=4= 16 liter

the amount of milk in 16 liter=16*5/8=10 liter of milk

the amount of water in 16 liter=16*3/8= 6 liter

add 4 liter of milk to the mixture: 10+4=14 liter of milk and 6 liter of water

the new ratio milk/water is 14:6 or 7:3

What is the answer to this quation

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

g(t)=t^2 - t

f(x) = (1 + x)

g(f(x)) = f(x)^2 - f(x)

g(f(x)) = (x + 1)^2 - x - 1

g(f(0)) = (0 +1)^2 - x - 1

g(f(0)) = 1 - 1 - 1 = -1

================================

f(x) = 1 + x

f(g(t)) = 1 + g(t)

f(g(t)) = 1 + t^2 - t

f(g(0)) = 1 + 0 - 0

f(g(0)) = 1

The answer I'm getting is 0.
