According to a recent article the average number of babies born with significant hearing loss (deafness) is approximately two pe

r 1,000 babies in a healthy baby nursery. The number climbs to an average of 30 per 1,000 babies in an intensive care nursery. Suppose that 1,000 babies from healthy baby nurseries were randomly surveyed. Find the probability that exactly two babies were born deaf.

Answer:

0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability P that exactly two babies were born deaf can be gotten by the binomial distribution as

P = {n\choose k} \, p^k \,(1-p)^{n-k}


where n is the sample size (the number of babies  randomly surveyed), k is the number of success, i. e., the baby is deaf; and p is the probability of selecting a deaf baby = 2/1000 = 0.002. Therefore

P = {1000\choose 2}\, 0.002^2\, (1-0.002)^{1000-2}


P = 0.27

Maria compared the slope of the function f(x)=(-6x-21) to the slope of the linear function that fits the values in the table bel
raketka [301]

Answer:

b. both functions have a negative slope

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=-6x-21


This function is of the form y=mx+b, where m=-6 is the slope and b=-21 is the y-intercept.


We can also determine the slope of the function in the table using any two points, say (0,7)\:and\:(2,6).


The slope formula is given by,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.


If (x_1,y_1)=(0,7)\:and\:(x_2,y_2)=(2,6), then,

m=\frac{6-7}{2-0}


m=-\frac{1}{2}.


We can see that both functions have a negative slope.


The correct answer is B.

Write an expression for the sequence of operations described below. triple v, then subtract 7 from the result Do not simplify an
oee [108]

Given:

The sequence is defined as "triple v, then subtract 7 from the result".

To find:

The expression for the given sequence.

Solution:

Triple v means 3 times of v, i.e., 3v.

So, the result is 3v.

Then subtract 7 from the result. So, the expression for the sequence is

3v-7

Therefore, the required expression is 3v-7.
