This is a binomial probability situation, since a dog either is adopted or is not adopted. The chances of a dog's being adopted in 0.20. Here we're speaking of 9 visits. Thus, n=9, p=0.20.
One way of doing this problem is to calculate the probability that ONE dog will be adopted, and then that that TWO dogs will be adopted, and so on, up to NINE dogs. Add together these nine probabilities to get your answer.
But a better (faster) approach would be to calculate the probability that ZERO dogs will be adopted, and then to subtract this from 1.000.
Using my TI-84Plus calculator, I figured that P(0 dogs will be adopted) is binompdf(9,0.20,0), or 0.134. Subtracting this from 1.000, we get 0.866 (answer to this problem).
Based on the measurements of the pool and the path of uniform width, the area of the width and length of the path can be found to be 28.8 meters.
<h3>How to find the width and length?</h3>
First, find the area of the pool:
= Length x Width
= 10 x 26
= 260 meters ²
The area of the path can therefore be found to be:
= Total area of pool and path combined - Area of pool
= 1,092 - 260
= 832 meters²
Seeing as the path has uniform width, that means that the width is the same and the length so the width and length of the pool is:
= √area of the path
= √832
= 28.8
In conclusion, the width and length of the path are 28.8 meters.

C is the answer because the X factors can’t repeat
To find out how many hours it rained, divide the total rise in the river by the amount it rose every hour.

First convert the mixed number into an improper fraction. We do this by multiplying the denominator to the whole number, adding it to the numerator, which becomes our new numerator, and we keep the denominator the same:

When dividing fractions we flip(the reciprocal) the one we're dividing by and multiply:

Multiply the numerators and denominators together:

Simplify by dividing:

So it rained for 10 hours.
