Answer:

20 ounces of cleaner

Step-by-step explanation:

Water 48 oz is 60% of unknown total. 60% = 3/5. Create equation and solve

48= 3x/5. 240= 3x. 80 = x

Total of water, bleach and cleaner is 80 ounces

60% + 15% = 75%

100% - 75%= 25% cleaner

.25 × 80 = 20 ounces

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use sine:

$sine=\dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

We have a measure of the angle and length of the opposite:

$\alpha=28^o,\ opposite=350\ ft$

$\sin28^o\approx0.4695$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{350}{x}=0.4695$

$\dfrac{350}{x}=\dfrac{4695}{10000}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$4695x=3500000$ <em>divide both sides by 4695</em>

$x=\dfrac{3500000}{4695}\to x\approx745.5$

In a certain college, 33% of the physics majors belong to ethnic minorities. Of 8 students are selected at random from the physi

Answer: 0.0187

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution formula for probability :-

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , n is the total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

Given : The probability that the physics majors belong to ethnic minorities =0.33

Number of students selected : n= 8

Now, the probability that more than 5 belong to an ethnic minority :-

$P(x>5)=P(6)+P(7)+P(8)\\\\=^8C_6(0.33)^6(0.67)^{2}+^8C_7(0.33)^7(0.67)^{1}+^8C_8(0.33)^8(0.67)^{0}\\\\=(\dfrac{8!}{6!2!})(0.33)^6(0.67)^{2}+(8)(0.33)^7(0.67)^{1}+(0.33)^8(0.67)^{0}\\\\=0.0186577086013\approx0.0187$
