Answer:
1 A the first store.
2. B The second store.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The store with the dearest towel is The First one ( $20 compared with $18).
2. The equation for the cost in the first store is P = 20n + 25.
The cost in the second store is given by P = 18n + 35.
For 15 towels first store charges:
20 * 15 + 25 = $325.
Second store charges:
18 * 15 + 35 = $305.

33 0.02 0.66 21.78
34 0.06 2.04 69.36
35 0.1 3.5 122.5

1 36.86 1360.9
We are supposed to find mean and standard deviation
Mean =
Standard deviation =
9(3+5) is equivalent because factoring a 9 out of both 27 and 45 leaves us with 9(3+5).
Answer:
- P(≥1 working) = 0.9936
- She raises her odds of completing the exam without failure by a factor of 13.5, from 11.5 : 1 to 155.25 : 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Assuming the failure is in the calculator, not the operator, and the failures are independent, the probability of finishing with at least one working calculator is the complement of the probability that both will fail. That is ...
... P(≥1 working) = 1 - P(both fail) = 1 - P(fail)² = 1 - (1 - 0.92)² = 0.9936
2. The odds in favor of finishing an exam starting with only one calculator are 0.92 : 0.08 = 11.5 : 1.
If two calculators are brought to the exam, the odds in favor of at least one working calculator are 0.9936 : 0.0064 = 155.25 : 1.
This odds ratio is 155.25/11.5 = 13.5 times as good as the odds with only one calculator.

My assessment is that there is significant gain from bringing a backup. (Personally, I might investigate why the probability of failure is so high. I have not had such bad luck with calculators, which makes me wonder if operator error is involved.)
