This is a case of binomial distribution. The formula used in calculations for binomial probability is:

P = nCr p^r (1-p)^(n-r) 

Where,

P = probability

nCr = combinations of r from n possibilities

p = success rate = 40% = 0.40

n = sample size = 10

 

<span>1st: Let us calculate for nCr for r = 8 to 10. Formula is:</span>

nCr = n! / r! (n-r)! 

10C8 = 10! / 8! 2! = 45

10C9 = 10! / 9! 1! = 10

10C10 = 10! / 10! 0! = 1

 

Calculating for probabilities when r = 8 to 10:

P (r=8) = 45 * 0.4^8 (0.6)^2 = 0.0106

P (r=9) = 10 * 0.4^9 (0.6)^1 = 0.0016

P (r=10) = 1 * 0.4^10 (0.6)^0 = 0.0001

 

Total probability that at least 8 were married = 0.0106 + 0.0016 + 0.0001

Total probability that at least 8 were married = 0.0123

Greg is covering a wall with equal-sized tiles that cannot be cut
Kitty [74]

Answer:

C. 36 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wall is 66 inches high by 72 inches wide.

The tiles are

a) 9 inch square = 3 by 3

b) 16 inch square = 4 by 4

c) 36 inch square = 6 by 6

d) 64 inch square = 8 by 8

Factors of 66 = 2 x 3 x 11

Factors of 72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

Now, we can see that in both 66 and 72 , we have 2 x 3 common that is 6.

And square of 6 is 36.

So, the answer is option C.

What is the value of (f+g)(5)if f(x)=7x-2 and g(x)=9x-4?
Arada [10]

Answer:

74

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do it first add f(x)+ g(x) and then plug in x=5.

(f+g) = f(x) + g(x)

= (7x- 2) + (9x-4)

= 7x - 2 + 9x - 4

= 16x - 6

(f + g)(5) = 16(5) - 6

= 80 - 6

= 74
