Jimmy collects nickels and dimes. Right now, he has a total of 40 coins in his piggy bank. If there are seven times as many dime
Colt1911 [192]
Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40

then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n

we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40

then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40

then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5

therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels

The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately 1/33 according to the Centers for Disease Contr
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution,

X \sim Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of American births resulting in a defect.

The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately <em>p</em> = 1/33.

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 5 American births are selected.

It is assumed that the births are independent, i.e. a birth can be defective or not is independent of the other births.

In this experiment the success is defined as a defective birth.

The random variable <em>X</em> satisfies all criteria of a Binomial distribution.

The criteria are:

  • Number of observations is constant
  • Independent trials
  • Each trial has only two outcomes: Success and Failure
  • Same probability of success for each trial

Thus, the appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution, Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).

Help!!! I just need Help on number 6 please!!!!!!!! ASAP!!!
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{12} =3.46 (2 decimal places)

If you want to arrange the tiles into a square, you will need 3.46 in each row/column.

This is physically impossible, hence you round it down to 3.

(If you round it up, you won't have enough tiles since 4*4=16)

Thus, the square area will be 3*3=9

Tiles left: 12-9=3
