Hey there! :D

Since she walks 3/4 a mile a day, we can multiply that by 4.

3/4= .75

4*.75= 3

She walked 3 miles in 4 days.

I hope this helps!

The answer is 3 because 3/4 * 4 =3
———————————————————
3/4 * 4/1
3 times 4 equals 12 and 4 times 1 is 4 which means the answer is at this point 12/4 which can be simplified to 3 because 4 goes into 12, 3 times.

Hope this helps:)

Answer:

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vessels are destroyed and then not replaced, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

Fleet of 18 means that $N = 18$

9 are carrying nuclear weapons, which means that $k = 9$

9 are destroyed, which means that $n = 9$

What is the probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed?

This is:

$P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

In which

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 0) = h(0,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,0}*C_{9,9}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.000021$

$P(X = 1) = h(1,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,1}*C_{9,8}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.001666$

Then

$P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.000021 + 0.001666 = 0.001687$

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.
