Answer:

The larger ham is the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the better buy, divide both of the prices by their weight to get the price per pound of ham.

5.70/3 = 1.90 per lb

8.75/5 = 1.75 per lb

Therefore the 5 pound of ham is a better buy.

Answer:

The answer is "0.07404893".

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the binomial distribution:

$n = 22\\\\p= 82\%=0.82\\\\q = 1-0.82 = 0.18\\\\$

Calculating the probability for not enough seats:

$=P(X>20)\\\\= P(21) + P(22)\\\\$

$= \binom{22}{21} (0.82)^{21}(0.18)^1+ \binom{22}{22} (0.82)^{22}(0.18)$

$=0 .06134598+ 0.01270295\\\\=0.07404893$

I want to solve it, just walk me through it:). . Assume you are rolling two dice; the first one is red, and the second is green.

dem82 [27]

By rolling two dices, you can have a result in 36 ways because every die has 6 sides. And if we are going to use a formula, it would be 6*6. But since the way which would have the result of 12 is an exemption, there would only now have 35 ways.

5(x + 1) = 4(x + 8)

Reika [66]

5(x + 1) = 4(x + 8)
Use distributive property
5x+5=4x+32
Subtract 4x from both sides
x+5=32
Subtract 5 from both sides
Final Answer: x=27
