Answer: 0.1061

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An insurance company found that 9% of drivers were involved in a car accident last year.

Thus, the probability of drivers involved in car accident last year = 0.09

The formula of binomial distribution :-

P(X=x)^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

If seven (n=7) drivers are randomly selected then , the probability that exactly two (x=2) of them were involved in a car accident last year is given by :-

P(X=2)=^7C_2(0.09)^2(1-0.09)^{7-2}\\\\=\dfrac{7!}{2!5!}(0.09)^2(0.91)^{5}=0.106147867882\approx0.1061

Hence, the required probability :-0.1061

Prove that every integer greater than 7 can be written by using 3's and 5's only. that is, for every n > 7 there exist non-ne
Taya2010 [7]
An integer may be a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 1 greater than a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 2 greater than a multiple of 3.

It is redundant to say an integer is 3 greater than a multiple of 3 (that's just a multiple of 3, we've got it covered).  Same for 4, 5, 6, 7...

Let's consider a number which is a multiple of 3.  Clearly, we can write 3+3+3+3+... until we reach the number.  It can be written as only 3's.

Let's consider a number which is 2 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be a multiple of 3.  That means we can write the number as 5+3+3+3+3+...  Of course, the number must be at least 8.

Let's consider a number which is 1 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be 2 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract another 5, it'll be a multiple of 3.  That means we can write the number as 5+5+3+3+3+3+...  Of course, the number must be at least 13.

That's it.  We considered all the numbers.  We forgot 9, 10, 11, and 12, but these are easy peasy.

Beautiful question.

Guessing you meant by a factor of 3... not 13 since none of the solutions are anywhere close to that.

to compress is to smoosh.
It's the equation of a line. If you smoosh it vertically the line becomes flatter and the slope smaller. 

Essentially g(x) = 3f(x)
3y = 12x + 6
y = (12/3)x + 6/3
y = 4x + 2

Is the relationship between gross box office sales and home video units significant? how can you tell? do you think the linear m
aalyn [17]

The linear model is the best fit for the relationship.

According to the statement

we have given that the relationship between gross box office sales and home video units significant and the linear model is the best fit for the relationship.

And we explain all the given statements.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

Since the p-value of the independent variable, 0.0000, is less than 0.05, we can be 95% confident that there is a significant linear relationship between gross box office and home video units.

And the

linear model is used in different ways according to the context. The most common occurrence is in connection with regression models.

So, the linear model is appropriate for the comparisons.

So, The linear model is the best fit for the relationship.

I need these three solved. I have a lot of math to do. the directions say solve each system of equations using substitution. sho
alekssr [168]

Answer:

5.

x + 2(x + 1) = 8 --> x = 2

y = 2 + 1 = 3

7.

3(9 + 2y) + 5y = 20 --> y = -7/11

x = 9 + 2(-7/11) = 85/11

9.

3(-1 - 2y) + 5y = -1 --> y = -2

x = -1 - 2(-2) = 3
