Probability is the mathematics of chance. In other words, it is the fraction or percentage of a certain event successfully happening. For this problem, you want to determine the probability of selecting 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 girls. The solution is as follows:
P = nCr p^r q^n-r
where
n is number of total events (n = 14)
r is the number of events that could happen (9, 10, 11, 12 ,13 and 14)
p is the probability of an event being a girl (p = 50% or 0.5)
q is the probability of either an event being a boy (q = 1-p = 0.5)
nCr is a combination formula which is n!/(r!(n-r)!)
P = [14C9* (.5)^9 * (0.5)^5]+ [14C10* (.5)^10 * (0.5)^4]+[14C11* (.5)^11 * (0.5)^3]+[14C12* (.5)^12 * (0.5)^2]+[14C13* (.5)^13 * (0.5)^1]+[14C14* (.5)^14 * (0.5)^0]
P = 0.211 or 21.1%
I believe the answer is D
Answer:
B. 23x-10
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 2 = 8x + 5.
-2 = -5x + 8x + 5
-2 = 3x +5
-7 = 3x
-7/3 = -2.3
Answer:
130 milliliters.
Step-by-step explanation:
a drug has a ratio of 115mg:5ml. This is equivalent to 23mg:1ml. 3g=3000mg, so we divide 3000 by 23 to get 130.434783. That is how many milliliters are needed. We round it to get 130 mL.
