51 accepted

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, if 6 are accepted out of 100, that's 6% or 0.06. To find how many are accepted out of 850, multiply 850 by 0.06.

The ribbon was 3 1/4 inches wide and had an area of 19 1/2 square inches. What is the length of the ribbon? Please Help Will Giv
miv72 [106K]
Hello!

The formula for finding area is l × w

If the area is 19 ½ inches and it was 3 ¼ inches wide, then the length will be 19 ½ ÷ 3 ¼ (Area ÷ Width)

19  \frac{1}{2} \div 3  \frac{1}{4}

Change both to improper fraction

19  \frac{1}{2} =   \frac{39}{2}

3  \frac{1}{4} =  \frac{13}{4}

\frac{39}{2} \div  \frac{13}{4}

Keep 39/2
Change ÷ to ×
Flip 13/4 = 4/13

\frac{39}{2} \times  \frac{4}{13} =  \frac{156}{26} = 6

Which expression matches the situation?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The expression that matches the situation is 90.00 - 3x ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ You went to the mall with $90.00

→ That means the total money with you  = $90.00

∴ The total money = 90.00 dollars

∵ You bought three shirts that cost x dollars each

∴ The cost of a shirt = $x

∴ The number of shirts = 3

→ Find the total cost of the three shirts

∴ The cost of the shirts = 3 × x

∴ The cost of the shirts = 3x dollars

∵ The money left = the total money - the cost of the shirts

→ Substitute the value of total money and the cost of the shirts

∴ The amount of money left = 90.00 - 3x

∴ You have left with 90.00 - 3x dollars

∴ The expression matches the situation is 90.00 - 3x dollars

Because all airline passengers do not show up for their reserved seat, an airline sells 125 tickets for a flight that holds only
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: a) 0.9961, b) 0.9886

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that does not show up = 0.10

Probability that show up = 0.90

Here, we use "Binomial distribution":

n = 125 and p = 0.90

Number of passengers that hold in a flight = 120

a) What is the probability that every passenger who shows up can take the flight?

P(X\leq 120)=\sum_{x=0}^{120}^{125}C_x(0.90)^x(0.10)^{125-x}=0.9961

(b) What is the probability that the flight departs with empty seats?

P(X\leq 119)=\sum _{x=0}^{119}^{125}C_x(0.90)^x)(0.10)^{125-x}=0.9886

Hence, a) 0.9961, b) 0.9886
