it cant be a negative number or zero

 so now you are left with 0.5, 2 and 7.9

15.7 - 0.5 = 15.2 ( 15.2/2 = 7.6)  this is possible

15.7 - 2 = 13.7 ( 13.7/2 = 6.85) this is possible

15.7 - 7.9 = 7.8 ( 7.8/2 = 3.9) (7.9/2 = 3.95) since the sides would be shorter than half the base this is not possible to form a triangle


so b can be either 0.5 or 2

13. A smoothie shop has 40 stores, and 55% of the stores are in
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

You could answer this two ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: Set up proportion

x/40=55/100

Cross-multiply and you will get..

2200=100x

x=22

Method 2: Use decimals

As we saw in the first method, 55 percent is equal to 55/100. 55/100 is equal to 0.55.

You can multiply 0.55 and 40 to get the answer as well.

0.55 times 40 is 22.

Hope this explanation helped! ☺️

Twelve percent of U.S. residents are in their forties. Consider a group of nine U.S. residents selected at random. Find the prob
miskamm [114]

Answer:

The probability is 28 % ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, there are only two possible outcomes in every trails ( residents are in their forties or not ),

So, this is a binomial distribution,

Binomial distribution formula,

Probability of success in x trials,

P(x)=^nC_x p^x q^{n-x}

Where, ^nC_x=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

p and q are probability of success and failure respectively and n is the total number of trials.

Let X be the event of resident who are in his or her forties.

Here, p = 12% = 0.12,

⇒ q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88,

n = 9,

Hence, the probability that two or three of the people in the group are in their forties = P(X=2) + P(X=3)

^9C_2 (0.12)^2 (0.88)^{9-2}+^9C_3 (0.12)^3 (0.88)^{9-3}

=36(0.12)^2 (0.88)^7+84(0.12)^3 (0.88)^6

=0.279266611163

\approx 0.28

=28\%
