2. Eight cards are marked : (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10), such that each card has
exactly one of theses numbers. A card is picked without looking.
Determine the probability of choosing a number greater than 5. (decimal)
A .625
B 1.75
C .50
D .60
The answer is C.
Answer:
40 miles a day
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference in fixed charge is $20; the difference in mileage charge is $0.50 per mile. So it will take $20/$0.50 = 40 miles for the extra mileage cost to eat up the savings in fixed cost. At that mileage, both companies will charge the same amount:
A: 90 + 0.30·40 = 102
B: 70 + 0.80·40 = 102
The answer to that is y = -6
Answer:
B. binomial with n = 5 and p = 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that James reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria.
So he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking.
If eggs do or don't contain salmonella independently of each other, then
probability for any one egg to contain salmonella bacteria is the constant 1/6.
Also there are only two outcomes, either bacteria present or not.
Hence the number of contaminated eggs when James uses 5 chosen at random has the distribution is Binomial
Here n = no of trials = no of eggs he uses = 5
Probability = 1/6
So option B is right.
“To use proportions to solve ratio word problems, we need to follow these steps:
Identify the known ratio and the unknown ratio.
Set up the proportion.
Cross-multiply and solve.
Check the answer by plugging the result into the unknown ratio.”
I hope this helps.
