Answer: Therefore, Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of population = 132000

Number of voting districts = 11

According to question,  no district is to have a population that is more than 10 percent greater than the population of any other district.

Let the number of population that the least populated district could have be 'x'.

So, it becomes,

x+10(1.1x)=132000\\\\x+11x=13200\\\\12x=132000\\\\x=\dfrac{132000}{12}\\\\x=11000

Hence, there are 11000 population that the least populated district could have.

Therefore, Option 'D' is correct.

Glen Davis is shooting free throws. Making or missing free throws doesn't change the probability that he will make his next one,
Serjik [45]

Answer:

0.00457 or 0.457%

Step-by-step explanation:

Glen Davis makes a free throw 74% of the time, meaning he misses 26% of the time. Four him to miss four in a row, it would require him to miss his first throw and his second throw and his third throw and his fourth throw. I highlight and because it is a helpful tip to remember that AND situations require multiplication while OR situations require addition.

So in this question we multiply the probabilities of him missing.

P(MMMM) = \frac{26}{100}* \frac{26}{100} *\frac{26}{100}* \frac{26}{100}  = 0.00457

This answer has been rounded off to three significant figures
