The correct answer is B. The function has a constant rate of change, decreasing for all x at a rate of 6.

In order to find the rate of change, we have to identify the slope. The slope is always the coefficient of x when in slope intercept form. In this case it is -6, which means it decreases at a rate of 6.

Food allergies affect an estimated 7% of children under age 5 in the US. What is the probability that in a kindergarden class of

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Probability of atleast one of 12 student has food allergies ≈ 0.58 ( approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Probability of a children under age 5 has food allergies = 7%

= $\frac{7}{100}$

To find : Probability of atleast one of 12 student has food allergies

Probability of a chindren under age 5 does not have food allergies = $1-\frac{7}{100}$

⇒ prob = $\frac{93}{100}$

now we find Probability of atleast one of 12 student has food allergies this means we have to find prob of 1 student, 2 student, 3 student, till 12 student have allergy out of 12 student of class then add all prob.

But instead of finding all these probability we find probability of student having no allergy.i.e., 0 student then subtract it from 1(total probability)

Probability of 0 student having allergy out of 12 student = $(\frac{93}{100})^{12}$
