The owner of a small deli is trying to decide whether to discontinue selling magazines. He suspects that only 9.6% of his custom

ers buy a magazine and he thinks that he might be able to use the display space to sell something more profitable. Before making a final decision, he decides that for one day he will keep track of the number of customers that buy a magazine. Assuming his suspicion that 9.6% of his customers buy a magazine is correct, what is the probability that exactly 2 out of the first 10 customers buy a magazine

Answer:

The probability that exactly 2 out of the first 10 customers buy a magazine

=

1.92%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Proportion of customers who buy a magazine = 9.6%

If 2 out of the first 10 customers buy a magazine, the proportion is given as  2/10 or 20%.

Therefore, the probability that exactly 2 out of the first 10 customers will buy a magazine is equal to the proportion of customers who buy a magazine multiplied by the proportion of the first 10 customers who buy a magazine

= 9.6% * 20%

= 1.92%

how many ways are there to pick a sequence of two different letters of the alphabet that appear in the word Crab
Darina [25.2K]

Using permutations, it is found that there are 12 ways to pick a sequence of two different letters of the alphabet that appear in the word Crab .

The order in which the letters appears is important, as for example, ab is a difference sequence than ba, hence the <em>permutation formula</em> is used.

Permutation formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by:

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

In this problem, 2 letters are picked from a set of 4, hence:

P_{(4,2)} = \frac{4!}{2!} = 12

There are 12 ways to pick a sequence of two different letters of the alphabet that appear in the word Crab .

Solve this system of linear equations. separate x and y values with a comma.
posledela

Answer:

1, 1

(x is equal to 1 and y is equal to 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System:</u>

{ -9x + 2y= -7

{ -12x + 3y= -9​

<u>Getting a single x value:</u>

[Given] -9x + 2y= -7

[Add 9x + 7 to both sides & then flip the equation] 9x = 2y + 7

[Divide both sides of the equation by 9] x = \frac{2}{9}y + \frac{7}{9}

<u>Solving for y by plugging-in our x:</u>

[Equation] -12x + 3y= -9​

[Plug-in] -12(\frac{2}{9}y + \frac{7}{9}) + 3(\frac{2}{9}y + \frac{7}{9}) = -9​

[Distribute -12 and 3]  \frac{-24y}{9} + \frac{-84}{9} + \frac{6y}{9} + \frac{21}{9} = -9​

[Multiply both sides of the equation by 9] -24y -84 + 6y + 21 = -81

[Combine like terms & add 63 to both sides] -18y = -18

[Divide both sides by -18] y = 1

<u>Solve for x by plugging-in y,</u>

[Given] -9x + 2y= -7

[Plug-in] -9x + 2(1) = -7

[Multiply] -9x + 2 = -7

[Subtract 2 from both sides] -9x = -9

[Divide both sides by -9] x = 1

Have a nice day!
