The probability of there being zero males is given by:
P(zero\ males)=4C0\times0.5^{0}\times0.5^{4}=\frac{1}{16}
Similarly the probability of there being zero females is also 1/16.
The probability there will be at least 1 male and 1 female is therefore:
1-(\frac{1}{16}+\frac{1}{16})=\frac{7}{8}
The answer is: 7/8.

Find DY divided by DX by implicit differentiation y=sinxy 
amm1812

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = sin(xy)\\\frac{d}{dx}y=cos(xy)(\frac{d}{dx}(xy))\\  \frac{d}{dx}y = cos(xy)(y + x*\frac{d}{dx}y)\\ write \: \frac{d}{dx}y \: as\:y'\\y' = cos(xy)(y+xy')\\y' = ycos(xy) + xy'cos(xy) \\y'-xy'cos(xy) = ycos(xy)\\y'(1-xcos(xy)) = ycos(xy)\\\\y' = \frac{ycos(xy)}{1-xcos(xy)}

The elephants at the zoo eat 3 2/3 buckets of bananas each day. The zookeeper bought 7 1/3 buckets of bananas. How many days wil
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: 2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:

= 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day

The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:

= 22/3 buckets

To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:

= 22/3 ÷ 11/3

= 22/3 * 3/11

= 66/33

= 2 days

<em>If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </em>

Yumi and Juan pick up litter along the highway at the same rate. Yumi picks up litter for 3 miles and takes two hours longer tha
Harlamova29_29 [7]

3/(x+2) = 2/x

multiply both fractions by x(x+2) to cancel out the bottoms

so it becomes 3x = 2x+4

ow subtract 2X from both sides and you get

x = 4

so it took Juan 4 hours

 it took Yumi 2 hours more so 4+2 = 6 hours
