Answer:

80 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that there are 60 min in an 1 hour

hence in 1 1/2 hrs, there will be:

60 x 1-1/2

= 60 x (3/2)

= 90 min

It is given that mike reads 60 pages in 1 1/2 hrs (i.e 90 min), hence

90 min--------> 60 pages

1 min -------> 60/90 pages

120 min -------> (60/90) x 120 = 80 pages

Answer: (A) 80 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

60 pages to 1 and ½ hours

x pages to 120 minutes

Change 1 and ½ hourst to minutes

1 and ½ hours= 90 minutes

60 pages = 90 minutes

x pages = 120 minutes

x*90=60*120

x=60*120/90

x=80 pages

This depends on how many friends she has. Like if she has 72 friends each will get one of each, but if she has 3 friends than each will get 24 on each. Do you know how many friends she has?

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

$\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}$
