Hello!

To find this out, turn 3/8 into decimal form, (0.375).

Now, turn each percent into standard form. (Also decimal form)

26% = 0.26, 27% = 0.27, 37% = 0.37, and 38% = 0.38.

The decimal closest to 0.375 is 37%.

Hope this helped! ♥♥

2. Think of the top and middle shelves as two lines cut by a transversal. What type of angles are

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Angles 1 and 5 are corresponding angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the different types of angles formed by a transversal:

1. Corresponding angles are angles that lie on the <em>same side</em> of the transversal line. Angles 1, 3, 5, 6, 9, and 11 are corresponding angles because they are all on the left side of the transversal (the line that cuts through the other lines). Angles 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 are corresponding angles because they are all on the right side of the transversal.

2. Alternate interior angles are angles that are nonadjacent angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal and in between the horizontal lines. Here the alternate interior angles are 3 and 6, 4 and 5, 7 and 10, and 8 and 9.

3. Alternate exterior angles are those that are nonadjacent and lie on the outside of the horizontal lines. In this diagram, angles 1 and 12 and angles 2 and 11 are alternate exterior.

4. Same-side interior angles are angles that lie on the same side of the transversal and in between the horizontal lines. The same-side interior angles in this diagram are angles 3 and 5, 7 and 9, 4 and 6, and 8 and 10.

Complete question :

An FBI survey shows that about 30% (i.e., 0.3) of all property crimes go solved. Suppose that in New York City 15 such crimes are committed and they are each deemed independent of each other.

a. What is the probability that exactly 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved? b. What is the probability that at most 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved? c. What is the probability that more than 11 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

Answer:

0.17

0.29686

0.000092

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Probability of success (p) = 0.3

Number of cases (n) = 15

1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

Usung binomial distribution formula :

a. What is the probability that exactly 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P(x = 3)

Recall:

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

P(x = 3) = 15C3 * 0.3^3 * 0.7^12

P(x = 3) = 455 *

P(x = 3) = 0.17

B.) What is the probability that at most 3 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P( X ≤ 3) = P(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3)

To save computation time, we can using the binomial probability calculator :

P( X ≤ 3) : 0.00474 + 0.03052 + 0.09156 + 0.17004 = 0.29686

c. What is the probability that more than 11 of these 15 crimes will be solved?

P( X > 11) = P(x = 12) + p(x = 13) + p(x = 14) + p(x = 15)

P( X > 11) = 0.000092
