Answer: 0.1 OR 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it: There's 1/2 bag of oranges, and you wanna know what number of oranges used in the juice. Take 1/2, and divided it by 5. You get 0.1, then you should turn it into a fraction, giving you 1/10.

Answer:

$(a)\ P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$(b)\ P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

$(c)\ P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 8$ --- 8 friends

$p = 15\%$ --- proportion that one-time fling

This question is an illustration of binomial probability, and it is represented as:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x* p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

Solving (a): P(x = 0) --- None has done one time fling

$P(x = 0) = ^8C_0* (15\%)^0 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-0}$

$P(x = 0) = 1* 1 * (1 - 0.15)^{8}$

$P(x = 0) = 0.85^8$

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

Solving (b): $P(x \ge 1)$

To do this, we make use of compliment rule:

$P(x = 0) + P(x \ge 1) =1$

Rewrite as:

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - P(x = 0)$

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - 0.2725$

$P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

Solving (c): $P(x\le 2)$ --- Not more than 2 has one time fling

This is calculated as:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

We have:

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$P(x = 1) = ^8C_1* (15\%)^1 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-1}$

$P(x = 1) = 8* (0.15) * (1 - 0.15)^7$

$P(x = 1) = 0.3847$

$P(x = 2) = ^8C_2* (15\%)^2 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-2}$

$P(x = 2) = 28* (0.15)^2 * (1-0.15)^6$

$P(x = 2) = 0.2376$

So:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.2725 + 0.3847 + 0.2376$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$

Given g(x)=3x+6 on what interval is the function negative

iris [78.8K]

Step-by-step explanation:

A number that is negative is less than 0, so

$3x + 6 < 0$

$3x < - 6$

$x < - 2$

So this function is negative, when x is less than -2

Stolb23 [73]

A) The strata to be used in this survey by the employer is; <em><u>Type of Staff</u></em>

B) <em>Stratified Random Sampling</em> will be preferred because the opinions of <em><u>the staffs on the tipping policy</u></em> may be the same within each type but differ across the different <u><em>types of staffs.</em></u>

A stratified random sampling is a type of sampling that divides a population into groups known as strata.

Now, from the question, we see that after adding a 20% to the cost of food and beverages, that the additional revenue will be distributed equally among the kitchen and server staffs.

This means the strata here will be the type of staff because the opinions of the staffs on the tipping policy may be the within each type but differ across both types of staffs.
