You must earn 243 points to have earned 93% of all possible points.

We first multiply each percentage on the previous tests by 150:

0.88*150 = 132
0.94*150 = 141
0.9*150 = 135

The total number of points possible is given by adding up the possible points for the three previous tests and the 250 for the last test:
150+150+150+250 = 700

93% of the 700 points would be 0.93(700) = 651 points.

Now we have 132+141+135+x (last test) = 651
408 + x = 651

Subtract 408 from both sides:
408+x-408 = 651-408
x = 243

Answer:

You must earn 243 points to have earned 93% of all possible points.

We first multiply each percentage on the previous tests by 150:

0.88*150 = 132

0.94*150 = 141

0.9*150 = 135

The total number of points possible is given by adding up the possible points for the three previous tests and the 250 for the last test:

150+150+150+250 = 700

93% of the 700 points would be 0.93(700) = 651 points.

Now we have 132+141+135+x (last test) = 651

408 + x = 651

Subtract 408 from both sides:

408+x-408 = 651-408

x = 243

Step-by-step explanation:

You must earn 243 points to have earned 93% of all possible points.

We first multiply each percentage on the previous tests by 150:

0.88*150 = 132

0.94*150 = 141

0.9*150 = 135

The total number of points possible is given by adding up the possible points for the three previous tests and the 250 for the last test:

150+150+150+250 = 700

93% of the 700 points would be 0.93(700) = 651 points.

Now we have 132+141+135+x (last test) = 651

408 + x = 651

Subtract 408 from both sides:

408+x-408 = 651-408

x = 243

(14.14) larry reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria. so he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking. if eggs do
melomori [17]

we know that

The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.

The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.

If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella

then

the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.

Therefore

for all 5 to not have salmonella


= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776

= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places


REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella


Therefore

the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40

= 0.60


the answer is

0.60 or 60%
