Answer:

The probability of Javier volunteers for less than three a month is 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the questions,

The probability of Javier to attend exactly 5 events :-

P ( x = 5 ) = 25% = \frac{1}{4}

The probability of Javier to attend exactly 4 events :-

P ( x = 4 ) = \frac{1}{4}

The probability of Javier to attend exactly 3 events :-

P ( x = 3 ) = \frac{1}{4}

The probability of Javier to attend exactly 2 events :-

P ( x = 2 ) = \frac{3}{20}

The probability of Javier to attend exactly 1 events :-

P ( x = 1 ) = \frac{1}{20}

The probability of Javier to attend no events :-

P ( x = 0 ) = \frac{1}{20}

Now we have to calculate the probability of Javier volunteers for less than three P ( x < 3 ).

P ( x < 3 ) = P ( x = 0 ) + P ( x = 1 ) + P ( x = 2 )

P ( x < 3 ) = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{20} + \frac{3}{20}   = \frac{1 + 1 + 3}{20}  = \frac{5}{20}  = \frac{1}{4}   = 0.25 = 25 %.

The deepest point of the lake is -922, so to get to the surface of the lake you would need to add 922 feet.

The deepest point of the lake is 11,542 feet above sea level.


To find the surface of the lake add 922 to 11,542.

11542 + 922 = 12,464 feet

At the movies, you order 3 boxes of popcorn and a bottle of water. The cost of the bottle of water is $1.75. Your total cost is
maksim [4K]

3w = $9.25 would be the equation in this case. In order to solve it, you must divide $9.25 by 3. $9.25 / 3 = $3.83 (repeating bar over the second 3). The cost of one box of popcorn is $3.83.

Hello! :)

What is the probability of choosing a pen from the first box? It is 5/10 = 1/2.

 

What is the probability of selecting a crayon from the second box? It is 5/8.

 

The probability of picking a pen from the first box and a crayon from the second box is 5/8 x 1/2 = 5/16.

Hope this helped and I hope I answered in time!

Good luck!
