Answer:

15.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to find the probabilities and multiple them to get our answer. Our first probability is out of 35 lollipops total how likely is it that Irvin picks a grape.

10/35

But then Irvin gets another lollipop for himself. What is the likelihood he will get a apple lollipop out of the 34 (we removed one to give to his brother).

18/34.

So our final equation is

10/35 x 18/34=0.151 (rounded)

First  choice is  "1 of 10 grape lollipops from 35 lollipops"  
The probablity is 10/35 = 2/7 
Second choice is  "1 of 18 apple lollipops from 34 lollipops"  
So probablity is 18/34 = 9/17 
Between this is  AND so you have to these probablities multiply:
P(A) = 2/7 * 9/17 = 18/119 
P(A) = 18/119 * 100% = 1800/119 %
It is approximaly 15,1 %.

Katyanochek1 [597]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

In a survey, 55% of the voters support a particular referendum. If 40 voters are chosen at random,

find the mean and variance for the number of voters who support the referendum.

Answer:

a) The Mean is 22

b) Variance is 9.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

55% of the voters support a particular referendum p = 0.55

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45

sample size n = 40

a)

Mean = sample size n × p

Mean = 40 × 0.55

Mean = 22

Therefore the Mean is 22

b)

Variance = n × p × q

so we substitute

Variance = 40 × 0.55 × 0.45

Variance = 9.9

Therefore the Variance is 9.9

In a company, it takes 4 employees 4 days to complete a task. It would take 2 employees 8 days to complete the same task.
Triss [41]
The concept that can be used in order to answer this item is that of man-days. The total number of man-days required to do the job should always be constant. 

This can be illustrated by the givens above.
Scenario 1: 
     N1 = (4 employees)(4 days) = 16 man-days

Scenario 2:
    N2 = (2 employees)(8 days) = 16 man-days

The equation for determining the value of e is equal to,
     k = (d)(e)

The answer is the second choice.
