42/2 = 21 ....> first factor is 2
21/3 = 7 ......> second factor is 3
7/7 = 1 ......> third factor is 7

This means that:
42=2*3*7
Therefore, the prime factors of 42 are: 2,3 and 7

Suppose that 50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference. A group of 12 young adul
ddd [48]

Answer:

a) 0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

b) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

c) 0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

Step-by-step explanation:

For each young adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they prefer McDonalds, or they prefer burger king. The probability of an adult prefering McDonalds is independent from other adults. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

50% of all young adults prefer McDonald's to Burger King when asked to state a preference.

This means that p = 0.5

12 young adults were randomly selected

This means that n = 12

(a) What is the probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's?

P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 8) = C_{12,8}.(0.5)^{8}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.121

P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.054

P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.016

P(X = 11) = C_{12,11}.(0.5)^{11}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.003

P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.5)^{12}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.000

P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) = 0.121 + 0.054 + 0.016 + 0.003 + 0.000 = 0.194

0.194 = 19.4% probability that more than 7 preferred McDonald's

(b) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's?

P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.054

P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.121

P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.193

P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.5)^{6}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.226

P(X = 7) = C_{12,7}.(0.5)^{7}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.193

P(3 \leq X \leq 7) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.054 + 0.121 + 0.193 + 0.226 + 0.193 = 0.787

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred McDonald's

(c) What is the probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King?

Since p = 1-p = 0.5, this is the same as b) above.

So

0.787 = 78.7% probability that between 3 and 7 (inclusive) preferred Burger King

Help asap! Please! A 40 cm tomato plant cast a 25cm shadow. How tall is the corn stalk if it's shadow is 280cm long?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

448

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  a proportion question. Keep the heights on one side of the proportion and the shadow length on the other.

height ratio  shadow ratio

40 cm / x = 25 / 280             Cross multiply

25x = 40 * 280                      Combine

25x = 11200                            Divide by 25

x = 11200/25

x = 448 cm

The height of the corn plant is 448 cm
