So we need to cover 5.5% into a decimal.

0.055 = 5.5%

The house value is 120,000.
So

(1.055x) * (120,000)=

So

f(x)=1.055x * 120,000

f(x) = 120,000(1.055)x

Answer:

The probability that 8 mice are required is 0.2428.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A scientist inoculates mice, one at a time, with a disease germ until he finds 3 that have contracted the disease. If the probability of contracting the disease is two sevenths.

To find : What is the probability that 8 mice are required? The probability that that 8 mice are required is nothing ?

Solution :

Applying binomial distribution,

$P(X=r)=^nC_r p^rq^{n-r}$

Where, p is the probability of success $p=\frac{2}{7}$

q is the probability of failure q=1-p, $q=1-\frac{2}{7}=\frac{5}{7}$

n is total number of trials n=8

r=3

Substitute the values,

$P(X=3)=^8C_3 (\frac{2}{7})^3 (\frac{5}{7})^{8-3}$

$P(X=3)=\frac{8!}{3!5!}\times \frac{8}{343}\times (\frac{5}{7})^{5}$

$P(X=3)=\frac{8\times 7\times 6}{3\times 2\times 1}\times \frac{8}{343}\times \frac{3125}{16807}$

$P(X=3)=0.2428$

Therefore, the probability that 8 mice are required is 0.2428.

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).

Virty [35]

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{(1-3)^2+(9-6)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-2)^2+3^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{13}\implies d\approx 3.6056\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{d=3.6}$
