Answer:

Option d: n = 36, p = 0.97, x = 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a soup company puts 12 ounces of soup in each can. The company has determined that 97% of can have the correct amount.

We have to describe a binomial experiment that would determine the probability that a case of 36 cans has all cans that are properly filled.

Let X = <u><em>Number of cans that are properly filled</em></u>

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

P(X = x) = \binom{n}{x} \times p^{x} \times (1-p)^{n-x} ; x = 0,1,2,........

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 36 cans

            x = number of success = all cans are properly filled = 36

            p = probabilitiy of success which in our question is probability that

                  can have the correct amount, i.e. p = 97%

So, X ~ Binom (n = 36, p = 0.97)

Hence, from the options given the correct option which describes a binomial experiment that would determine the probability that a case of 36 cans has all cans that are properly filled is n = 36, p = 0.97, x = 36.

Use an addition property to solve for c.
NeX [460]

Answer:

"C" =14

Step-by-step explanation:

14+(-12)=-12+c

-12+c=14+(-12)

-12+c=14-12

-12+c+12=2+12

c=14

The observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level
Paul [167]

Answer: The the speed of elevators is 22.55.

Explanation:

It is given that observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level in 60 seconds.

The speed is the change in distance with respect to time.

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}

From the given information the total distance is 1353 and the total time is 60 seconds. So by the above formula we get,

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{1353}{60}

\text{Average Speed}=22.55

Therefore, the speed of elevators is 22.55.

you deposit 300 in an account that pays 5 1/2% annual interest compounded cnyinuously find the balance at the end of 5 years
algol [13]
First find the multiplier: 5.5% + 1 = 1.0505.

Then we do amount x (multiplier) to the power of how many years.

300 x (1.0505)^5

The answer is <span>383.79696707. 

We round this to 2dp, making it £393.80

REMEMBER UNITS!!!

Hope this helps xox :)</span>

In parallelogram PQRS, PQ =4x+28, QR=x+31, RS = 10X+4. Which of the
Doss [256]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we know that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent so

4x+28=10x+4

2) subtract 4 on both sides

4x+24=10x

3)subtract 4x on both sides

24=6x

4)divide by 6 on both sides

4=x

5)substitute for x

length of RS =10(4)+4

length of RD=44
