-5 might be farther than -4 for but -4 is bigger. Because any number on the left side of the number line closer to zero is bigger.

irina1246 [14]

Answer: The answer is (d) Accurately predicting who will be promoted at work.


Step-by-step explanation:  We are given four options and asked in which of these four, we can use binomial distribution.

Binomial distribution is used in that experiments where there are only two outcomes, either success or failure.

In the given four options, (a), (c) and (d) are incorrect, because the number of outcomes are not fixed there and hence we cannot use binomial distribution.

Only option (b) will serve our purpose, as we are accurately predicting who is getting promoted at work.

Thus, the correct option is (b).

write a system of linear equations that has only one solution. solve the system of equations in two ways.
Iteru [2.4K]
X + 5y = 1 . . . . (1)
8x - 2y = 3 . . . .(2)
Solution 1.
From (1), x = 1 - 5y
substituting for x in (2), we have:
8(1 - 5y) - 2y = 3
8 - 40y - 2y = 3
8 - 42y = 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
x = 1 - 5(5/42) = 1 - 25/42 = 17/42.

Solution 2.
Multiply (1) by 8, to get:
8x + 40y = 8 . . . . . (3)
(3) - (2) = 40y - (-2y) = 8 - 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
substitute for y into (3), to get:
8x + 40(5/42) = 8
8x + 100/21 = 8
8x = 8 - 100/21 = 68/21
x = (68/21)/8 = 17/42

What's greater 5/6 or7/9
Vesna [10]

Answer:

5/6 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

First obtain a common denominator for the fractions. Multiply the denominator of one fraction to the denominator of another and that is the denominator for the new fractions (54). Then multiply the denominator of one fraction to the numerator of the other one to obtain the new numerator. (e.g. 5*9=45 so 5/6 ->45/54) do this to the other fraction and you will see that 7/9 -> 42/54 and 45/54 is greater than 42/54 so 5/6 is greater .
