Answer:

8 cycles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make this problem easier by finding the Least Common Denominator.

In this case, the LCD of this is 10, so we can turn 4/5 into 8/10.

Simply divide 8/10 by 1/10, and you have the answer: 8 cycles.

Solve for x -(2x+5)+14=22
Gala2k [10]

Hey there!☺

Answer:\boxed{x=\frac{-13}{2}}

Explanation:

-(2x+5)+14=22 Equation

−(2x+5)+14=22  Simplify both sides

−2x + −5 + 14 = 22 Distribute

(−2x) + (−5+14) = 22 Combine Like Terms

-2x + 9 = 22

-2x + 9 - 9 = 22 - 9 Subtract 9 from both sides

-2x = 13

-2x/-2 = 13/-2

-13/2 Add the negative to 13

x = -13/2

Hope this helps!

Gracie has 5 quarters 4 nickels and 1 penny in her pocket. She selects a coin at random. What is the probability of selecting a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5+4+1 = 10. If you have 4 nickels out of 10 coins, it means there is a 4/10 chance of selecting one, but to simplify, 2 is the greatest common factor, so you would divide each number.

4/2 = 2.

10/2 = 5.

The answer is 2/5.

Each letter of the word "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is placed into a bag and drawn at 3 times, replacing the letter aft
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

P(X ≥ 1) = 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The word "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" has 34 letters in which 'i' appears 7 times in the word.

Then; the probability of success = 7/34 = 0.20588

Using Binomial distribution to determine the probability; we have:

P(X = x)  = ^nC_x  \ \beta^x   \  (1 - \beta)^{n-x}

where;

x = 0,1,2,...n    and    0  <  β   <   1

and x represents the  number of successes.

However; since the letter is drawn thrice; the probability that the letter "i" is drawn at least once can be computed as:

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X< 1)

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X =0)

P(X \ge 1) =  1 - \bigg [ {^3C__0} (0.21)^0 (1-0.21)^{3-0} \bigg]

P(X \ge 1) =  1 - \bigg [ 1 \times 1 (0.79)^{3} \bigg]

P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.50

P(X ≥ 1) = 0.50
