The best way to explain it is to provide a couple of examples.

Example 1: 1.111 x 10³ multiplied by 5

= (1.111 x 5) x 10³

= 5.555 x 10³

Example 2: 6.666 x 10³ multiplied by 5

= (6.666 x 5) x 10³

= 33.330 x 10³

= 3.3330 x 10⁴

Answer: multiply the numbers together and then include 10ⁿ. Convert answer into scientific notation afterward, if needed.

Answer:

D. 0.821

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The combinations formula is important to solve this question:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Desired outcomes

The order is not important. For example, Elisa, Laura and Roze is the same outcome as Roze, Elisa and Laura. This is why we use the combinations formula.

At least 3 girls.

3 girls

3 girls from a set of 5 and 2 boys from a set of 3. So

$C_{5,3}*C_{3,2} = 30$

4 girls

4 girls from a set of 5 and 1 boy from a set of 3. So

$C_{5,4}*C_{3,1} = 15$

5 girls

5 girls from a set of 5

$C_{5,5} = 1$

$D = 30+15+1 = 46$

Total outcomes

5 from a set of 8. So

$T = C_{8,5} = 56$

Probability

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{46}{56} = 0.821$

So the correct answer is:

D. 0.821

Part A:

A component is one voter's vote. An outcome is a vote in favour of our candidate.
Since there are 100 voters, we can stimulate the component by using two randon digits from 00 - 99, where the digits 00 - 54 represents a vote for our candidate and the digits 55 - 99 represents a vote for the underdog.

Part B:

A trial is 100 votes. We can stimulate the trial by randomly picking 100 two-digits numbers from 00 - 99. Whoever gets the majority of the votes wins the trial.

Part C:

The response variable is whether the underdog wants to win or not. To calculate the experimental probability, divide the number of trials in which the simulated underdog wins by the total number of trials.
