Answer:

a) P=0.2503

b) P=0.2759

c) P=0.3874

d) P=0.2051

Step-by-step explanation:

We have this information:

25% of American households have only dogs (one or more dogs)

15% of American households have only cats (one or more cats)

10% of American households have dogs and cats (one or more of each)

50% of American households do not have any dogs or cats.

The sample is n=10

a) Probability that exactly 3 have only dogs (p=0.25)

P(x=3)=\binom{10}{3}0.25^30.75^7=120*0.01563*0.13348=0.25028

b) Probability that exactly 2 has only cats (p=0.15)

P(x=2)=\binom{10}{2}0.15^20.85^8=45*0.0225*0.27249=0.2759

c) Probability that exactly 1 has cats and dogs (p=0.1)

P(x=1)=\binom{10}{1}0.10^10.90^0=10*0.1*0.38742=0.38742

d) Probability that exactly 4 has neither cats or dogs (p=0.5)

P(x=4)=\binom{10}{4}0.50^40.50^6=210*0.0625*0.01563=0.20508

Which of the following quantities are inversely proportional? WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 25 POINTS
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

I believe the answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse proportion occurs when one value increases and the other decreases

D is the answer because as each cat eats the same amount of dry cat food, there is less dry cat food in the bag; so this is why D best answers the question.

Hope this helps!
