Answer: Our required probability is 0.067.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of days in a year = 365

Number of years = 10

So, Number of days in 10 years = 365 × 10 = 3650

Number of unprovoked shark bites in Florida = 246

so, Probability that there will be at least one unprovoked shark bite on a given day is given by

\dfrac{246}{3650}\\\\=0.067

Hence, our required probability is 0.067.

e-lub [12.9K]
Let the number of minutes be = x.

Cost per minute = 11 cents = 0.11

Phone Bill = Monthly fee  +    0.11* x 

Substituting from the question

20.82 = 3 + 0.11x

3 + 0.11x = 20.82

0.11x = 20.82 - 3

0.11x = 17.82

x = 17.82/0.11

x = 162

Solve the equation for y<br> Y minus 5 equals 1/3 (x plus 12)
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

ok so this problem you are basically just rearranging it. you're going to want y by itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

let's start with the original equation: 5-y=1/3x +12

so first you have to move the five over, so you subtract 5 from both sides. -y=1/3x+12-5

then you subtract the 5 from the twelve since they're like terms: -y=1/3x+7

and finally you have to move the negative over. when you move the negative think of it like dividing negative one from both sides, everything on the other side has to get the negative.

so we're left with y=-1/3x-7

I hope this helps!
