<h3>Answer: Comelia is correct</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

We're told that "Christopher  says that all Rational (Q) numbers are Whole (W)", which makes Christopher not correct. Some rational numbers are whole numbers. For instance, the number 7 = 7/1 is rational and it's a whole number as well.

However something like 1/2 is rational, but it's not a whole number. A whole number doesn't have any fractional or decimal part to it. It can be thought of the number of something.

Comelia is correct because all whole numbers are rational. If x is some whole number, then x = x/1 is rational as well. Replace x with any whole number you want. Her statement does not work in reverse as shown above.

When drawing a Venn diagram, the circle for "whole numbers" will be entirely inside the circle for "rational numbers", and not the other way around.

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The probability that exactly two have flaws is P (x=2) = 0.2376

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

Success= p= 0.15

Failure = q= 0.85

total number= n= 8

Number chosen = x= 2

Applying the binomial distribution

P (x=x) = nCx p^x(q)^n-x

P (x=2) = 8C2 0.15 ²(0.85)^8

P (x=2) = 0.2376

The success is chosen about which we want to find the probability. Here we want to find the probability that exactly two have flaws so success would be having flaws therefore p = 0.15

A cake has a circumference of 25 1/7 inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 22/7 to approximate pi
Novosadov [1.4K]
To calculate for area given the circumference we proceed as follows:
C=2πr
where:
r=radius
thus given that C=25 1/7 in=176/7
thus plugging in our formula to solve for r we get:
176/7=2πr
thus
r=4.002~4.00 in
hence the area will be:
A=πr²
A=π×(4²)
A=50 2/7 in²
