Answer:

0.999

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 1 correct means, 1 correct, 2 correct, 3 correct ... until 10 correct. That would be a long process to calculate.

<em>Instead we use the complement rule to calculate.</em>

<em>P(x\geq1)=1-P(x</em>

<em />

<em>So we need to find P(x<1). So this is getting 0 answers correct, or 10 incorrect.</em>

<em />

In true false question, probablity of correct is 1/2 and incorrect is 1/2, hence,

Probability of 10 incorrect is (1/2)^10

Thus,

P(x\geq1)=1-(\frac{1}{2})^{10}=0.999

So the answer is 0.999 (rounded to nearest thousandth)

You read 50 pages in an hour your sister reads 40 pages in an hour how many more pages did you read than your sister reads in 1/
Elena-2011 [213]

To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.


50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.


Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.

An angle measures 90° less than the measure of a supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Vanyuwa [196]
Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees more than the other, you can formulate an equation 180=(100+x)+x80=2x so, x=40 the other angle is 100 degrees more. So, the angle lengths are 40 and 140 degrees.
