. Tommy gives baseball cards to four of his friends. He gives Kiana 3 cards less than he gives Gary.

Licemer1 [7]

We need to write system of equations for this problem. Reading text we write 1 equation by 1.
first lets name our variables
x - Kiana cards
y - Gary cards
z - Monty cards
m - Willa cards

x = y-3 which we can write as y = x+3
z = x + 7
m = 2z
x + y + z + m = 74

I think easiest way to solve this is to express all variables in last equation and solve for x.
x + x+3 + x + 7+ 2x + 14= 74
5x = 50
x = 10
now we just calculate cards given to each friend

y = 13
z = 17
m = 34

At a Noodles & Company restaurant, the probability that a customer will order a nonalcoholic beverage is .51.

Answer:

$P(x\geq 7)=0.1886$

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable x, that said the number of customer that will order a nonalcoholic beverage in a sample of n customers follows a binomial distribution. Because we have n identical and independent events with a probability p of success and (1-p) of fail.

So, the probability that x customers will order a nonalcoholic beverage is:

$P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}$

Where n is the size of the sample and p is the probability that a customer order a nonalcoholic beverage, so replacing the values, we get:

$P(x)=\frac{10!}{x!(10-x)!}*0.51^{x}*(1-0.51)^{10-x}$

Now, the probability that at least 7 will order a nonalcoholic beverage is equal to:

$P(x\geq 7)=P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)$

Where:

$P(7)=\frac{10!}{7!(10-7)!}*0.51^{7}*(1-0.51)^{10-7}=0.1267\\P(8)=\frac{10!}{8!(10-8)!}*0.51^{8}*(1-0.51)^{10-8}=0.0494\\P(9)=\frac{10!}{9!(10-9)!}*0.51^{9}*(1-0.51)^{10-9}=0.0114\\P(10)=\frac{10!}{10!(10-10)!}*0.51^{10}*(1-0.51)^{10-10}=0.0011$
