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)

Click on the value for m that makes this inequality true
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

To solve this inequality you need to get m by itself

3m+10<30 (First subtract 10 from each side)

3m<20 (10-10=0, 30-10=20) (Then divide each side by 3)

m< 20/3 or 6.666666

So your answer is any that is less than 6.66666

Your answer would be 5

5

Hope this helps ;)
