Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 13%.

Since four unrelated people in the United States are selected at random, we can say that each person is independent of the other to have B+ blood group.

Let X be the number of persons who have blood group B+ in the group of 4 persons.

X is Binomial with p = 0.13

a) P(X = 4) = $(0.13)^4 = 0.000286$

b) P(x =0) = $(1-0.13)^4 = 0.572898$

c) $P(X\geq 10 = 1-P(0) = 0.427102$

d) All having B+ is unusual since probability is very negligible

The points (1,7) and (0,5) fall on a particular line. What is its equation in slope-intercept

choli [55]

Answer:

y = 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope:

5-7/0-1 --> -2/-1 --> (2)

Now use the point-slope form to find the slope-intercept form:

y-7 = 2 ( x - 1)

y - 7 = 2x - 2 add seven to both sides...

y = 2x + 5

What is the slope of this line? y=4x+6

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The slope is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

So the formula is y=mx+b. M is the slope and b would be your y intercept. So the slope is 4. (I just did this in class)

Nate is exponentially gaining Twitter followers! His current amount of followers is 146. His followers are increasing at a 24% r

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

(a) Growth

$(b)\ y = 146(1.24)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a= 146$ -- current

$r = 24\%$ --- rate

Solving (a): Growth or decay

The question says his followers increases each day by 24%.

Increment means growth.

Hence, it is a growth problem

Solving (b): Equation to represent the scenario.

Since the rate represents growth, the equation is:

$y = a(1 + r)^x$

Substitute: $a= 146$ and $r = 24\%$

$y = 146 * (1 + 24\%)^x$

$y = 146 * (1 + 0.24)^x$

$y = 146 * (1.24)^x$

$y = 146(1.24)^x$

An architect is sketching a blueprint of a patio for a new fence. On the blueprint, C is the midpoint of segment AD. Point B is

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The length of AD is 32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportional distances

When distances are proportions of others, we can express all of them as relative fractions until we reach some known distance and solve for the desired length

Let's call x the length of AD. Given C is the midpoint of AD, then

$\displaystyle AC=CD=\frac{x}{2}$

Given B is the midpoint of AC, then

$\displaystyle AB=BC=\frac{AC}{2}=\frac{x}{4}$

If we know BC=8 feet

$\displaystyle \frac{x}{4}=8\ feet$

$\displaystyle x=32\ feet$

The length of AD is 32 feet

What is 11 out of 25 as a percentage

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Ok, I'm not giving you the answer. Instead, I'm going to give you the way to solve it. Then, you can do it yourself, message it to me, and I will check it.
Do .11 x 25. Remember to add the decimal back in.
