Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would assume a binomial distribution for the handedness of the population. Let x be a random variable representing the type of handedness in the population. The probability of success, p is that a randomly chosen person is left handed only. Then probability of failure is that a chosen person is not left handed only(right handed only or both).

p = 12/100 = 0.12

number of success, x = 20

n = 200

the probability that there are at least 20 left-handers is expressed as P(x ≥ 20)

From the binomial probability calculator,

P(x ≥ 20) = 0.84

Answer:

175<=12.5x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

She starts with 40 points already so you add in those 40 then since she gets 12.5 points per visit that is your x, so you set that as greater than or equal to 175

If anyone’s good with geometry, help me out please. I would really appreciate it.
lakkis [162]

Answer: X=2, PR=40

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the two triangles are equal/congruent

------------------------

solve for x

10x+5=25

10x=20

x=2

--------------------

solve for y

33=7y-2

35=7y

y=5

------------------

solve for PR

PR=8y

PR=8(5)

PR=40

Hope this helps!! :)

How many hours is 3200 seconds <br><br> 3200 s =_____hrs
dezoksy [38]

Dividing by 3,600

1

Determine the number of seconds you have. This information should be given, or it should be a figure you calculated yourself.

For example, you might be converting 2,400 seconds into hours.

ivide the number of seconds by 3,600. Note that there are 3,600 seconds in one hour.[1] So, if you have more than 3,600 seconds, your conversion will be greater than  hour. If you have less than 3,600 seconds, your conversion will be a fraction of an hour.

3

Convert your decimal to minutes. This step is helpful if you are working with a number of seconds equal to less than an hour, so that you can gauge how long a certain decimal is. To convert the decimal to minutes, multiply it by 60.[2]

3200 seconds = 0.88888889 Hours

(rounded to 8 digits)
