14 pounds = 316 cups, so you divide both sides by 14 to get

1 pound = 22.57 cups

According to a survey, 29% of people carry at least 1 reusable water bottle. If 5 people are selected randomly, what is the prob

Nitella [24]

Answer:

0.4 is the probability that at least 2 out of 5 will be carrying a reusable water bottle

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

We treat people carrying at least 1 reusable water bottle as a success.

P(people carry at least 1 reusable water bottle) = 29% = 0.29

Then the number of people follows a binomial distribution, where

$P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}$

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 5

We have to evaluate:

$P(x \geq 2) =1- P(x < 2) \\=1 - \binom{5}{0}(0.29)^0(1-0.29)^5 + \binom{5}{1}(0.29)^1(1-0.29)^4\\=1- 0.1804 - 0.3684\\= 0.4512\\\approc 0.4$

0.4 is the probability that at least 2 out of 5 will be carrying a reusable water bottle

if w is inversely proportional to the square of v and w=3 when v=6 find w when v=3. I didn't want to sound desperate, but I just

If v is cut in half, then w is multiplied by (1/(1/2))^2 = 4.

When v=3, w=12.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

{x | x R, x<-12}

Step-by-step explanation:

SO basically think of it as x is a teenager that wants to be alone. so have to figure out how to get everyone on the otehr side of their bedroom door (>)

so you are going to do this

-1/2x>6

/-1/2x /-1/2x

x<6/-1/2

x<6*-2/1

x<-12
