You convert the denominator into a common number. That is 12. You then add 4/12 + 3/12 = 7/12

Get a common factor which would be 12.... the equation is now 4/12 + 3/12 which is 7/12

Use proper probability notation. Identify function and label inputs when using technology.

Answer:

0.1349

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size, n = 500

20% of 500 ; 0.2 * 500 = 100

p = 0.18 ; n = 500 ; 1 - p = 0.82

P(x ≥ 100) ;

Using the binomial probability relation :

P(x =x) = nCx * p(x)^x * (1 - p)^(n - x

P(x ≥ 100) = 500C100 * 0.18^100 * 0.82^400

P(x ≥ 100) = 0.1349

The population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by1 P(t)=1.394(1.006)t, where t is the number of years since th

Answer:

At the start of 2014, the population was growing at 8.34 million people per year.

At the start of 2015, the population was growing at 8.39 million people per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how fast was the population growing at the start of 2014 and at the start of 2015 we need to take the derivative of the function with respect to t.

The derivative shows by how much the function (the population, in this case) is changing when the variable you're deriving with respect to (time) increases one unit (one year).

We know that the population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by $P(t)=1.394(1.006)^t$

To find the derivative you need to:

$\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=\\\\\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \left(a\cdot f\right)'=a\cdot f\:'\\\\1.394\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.006^t\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:derivative\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(a^x\right)=a^x\ln \left(a\right)\\\\1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\ln \left(1.006\right)\\\\\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=(1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t$

To find the population growing at the start of 2014 we say t = 0

$P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(0)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^0\\P(0)' = 0.00833901 \:Billion/year$

To find the population growing at the start of 2015 we say t = 1

$P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(1)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^1\\P(1)' = 0.00838904 \:Billion/year$
