True [87]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

consider k the numbe of correct answers

P(k) = kC8×(0,2)^k×(0,8)^(8-k)

example:

The probability of having 2 correct answers = 2C8×(0,2)^2×(0,8)^(6) = 0.294

the probability that the number x or correct answer is fewer than 4​ =

p(0) + p(1) + p(2) + p(3) = 0.944

About how much difference in average leaf width would you find in two forests whose average annual rainfalls are near 1500 mm bu
goblinko [34]

Answer:

4.80 mm to 2 d.p

Step-by-step explanation:

w = f(r)

f'(r) = (dw/dr) = (0.0218 mm/mm)

So, for a small difference in rainfall of 220 mm, what is the corresponding small difference in width of leaves in the two forests given.

One definition of a derivative or a rate of change is that it is the ratio of very small differences in the dependent variable to very small differences in the independent variable.

Mathematically,

(dw/dr) = (Δw/Δr) for very small Δw and Δr.

0.0218 = (Δw/220)

Δw = 0.0218 × 220 = 4.796 mm = 4.80 mm to 2 d.p

Hope this Helps!!!

1. Which would be a more helpful for solving the system: adding the two equations or subtracting
ira [324]

Answer:

1) Subtracting one from the other

2) x = 0.375 and y = 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1 :

\frac{2x+1}{2y}=7\\\\

Equation 2:

\frac{6x-1}{2y}=5

To solve these equations by the Elimination method we multiply equation 1 with 6 and multiply equation 2 with 2 so now,

\frac{2x+1}{2y} =7\\\\2x+1=14y\\\\Multiplying\ Equation\ 1\  with\ 6\\\\12x+6=84y

Now for the second equation:

\frac{6x-1}{2y}=5\\\\6x-1=10y\\\\Multiplying\ equation\ 2\ with\ 2 \\\\12x-2=20y

Now subtracting equation 2 from equation 1

12x+6=84y\\\\12x-2=20y\\\\Subtracting\ leads\ to\\12x-12x+6-(-2)=84y-20y\\0+8=64y\\8=64y\\8/64=y\\0.125=y

now insert this value of y into any equation

lets insert it into equation 1

\frac{2x+1}{2y} =7\\\\2x+1=14y\\2x+1=14(0.125)\\2x+1=1.75\\2x=1.75-1\\2x=0.75\\x=0.75/2\\x-0.375

Atown uses positive numbers to track increases in population and negative numbers to track decreases in population.
amid [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-60

Step-by-step explanation:

Increase in population is given by positive sign

Change in population in 5 years = -300

Decrease in population is represented by negative sign

Change in population in 1 year = -300\5

                                                = -60

Town's population faces a decrease of 60 residents each year.
