Suppose a baseball team has 14 players on the roster who are not members of the pitching staff. Of those 14 players, assume that

three have recently taken a performance-enhancing drug. Suppose the league decides to randomly test five members of the team. What is the probability that at least one of the tested players is found to have taken a performance-enhancing drug

Answer: Our required probability would be 0.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of players = 14

Number of players have recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 3

Number of players have not recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 14-3=11

Number of members chosen randomly = 5

We need to find the probability that at least one of the tested players is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug.

P(Atleast 1) = 1 - P(none is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug)

So, P(X≥1)=1-P(X=0)

P(X\geq 1)=1-^5C_0(\dfrac{11}{14})^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=1-(0.786)^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=0.70

Hence, our required probability would be 0.70.

I need the answer quick I have a time limit ( I only get an hour to complete the assignment heh )
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

C (the third table, from the second picture).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of the graph.

Two conspicuous points are (0, -3) and (2, 1).

The slope is: (1 - -3) / (2 - 0) = (1 + 3) / 2 = 4 / 2 = 2.

A: In the table, the y-values increase by 2, while the x-values increase by 4. 2 / 4 = 1 / 2 = 0.5. The slope is not the same as the graph.

B: In the table, the y-values decrease by 2, while the x-values increase by 4. -2 / 4 = -1 / 2 = -0.5. The slope is not the same as the graph.

C: In the table, the y-values increase by 4, while the x-values increase by 2. 4 / 2 = 2 / 1 = 2. The slope is the same as the graph, so C is your answer.

D: In the table, the y-values decrease by 4, while the x-values increase by 2. -4 / 2 = -2 / 1 = -2. The slope is not the same as the graph.

Hope this helps!

How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle has a measure of 15 degrees? (Show work!!)
ad-work [718]
The answer is 24 sides
because the total amount of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360.
so if each exterior angle has a measure of 15:
360 \div 15 = 24
