Answer: Choice D. P = i/rt
This is the same as saying P = i/(rt). The parenthesis are preferred in my opinion to indicate we have rt in the denominator and not just r.
======================================
Explanation:
In the original equation, prt is the same as p*r*t. So we multiply p, r and t to get prt.
This can be thought of as p*(rt). To isolate p, we undo the multiplication done to the variable p. We will divide both sides by rt to get
i = prt
i = p*(rt)
i/(rt) = p*(rt)/(rt) ... dividing both sides by rt
i/(rt) = p
p = i/(rt)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three places and three people.
Times them together for the total outcomes:
1/3 x 1/3= 1/9
The answer is 8/17 because you have to change the fractions to improper fractions then change the division sign to a multiplication sign. Then change the second fraction by flipping the two numbers then multiply and reduce.
Answer: C & D
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
A binomial experiment must satisfy ALL four of the following:
- A fixed number of trials
- Each trial is independent of the others
- There are only two outcomes (Success & Fail)
- The probability of each outcome remains constant from trial to trial.
A) When the spinner is spun three times, X is the sum of the numbers the spinner lands on.
→ #3 is not satisfied <em>(#4 is also not satisfied)</em>
B) When the spinner is spun multiple times ...
→ #1 is not satisfied
C) When the spinner is spun four times, X is the number of times the spinner does not land on an odd number.
→ Satisfies ALL FOUR
- A fixed number of trials = 4
- Each trial is independent of the others = each spin is separate
- There are only two outcomes = Not Odd & Odd
- The probability of each outcome remains constant from trial to trial = P(X = not odd) = 0.50 for each spin
D) When the spinner is spun five times, X is the number of times the spinner lands on 1.
→ Satisfies ALL FOUR
- A fixed number of trials = 5
- Each trial is independent of the others = each spin is separate
- There are only two outcomes = 1 & Not 1
- The probability of each outcome remains constant from trial to trial = P(X = 1) = 0.17 for each spin
