In the given question, most of the information's are of immense importance. based on these information's, the required answer to the question can be found. It is already given that the car releases 19.6 pounds of carbon dioxide for 1 gallon of gasoline. The amount of carbon dioxide released for 14.5 gallons of gasoline needs to be found.
So
Amount of carbon dioxide released by
1 gallon of gasoline = 19.6 pounds
Then
Amount of carbon dioxide released by
14.5 gallons of gasoline = (19.6 * 14.5) pounds
                                       = 284.2 pounds
So an estimated 284.2 pounds of carbon dioxide will be released by 14.5 gallons of gasoline.

At a 20th high school reunion, all the classmates were asked the number of children they had. The probability of having a partic
finlep [7]

Answer:

a) We need to check two conditions:

1) \sum_{i=1}^n P_i = 1

0.05+0.14+0.34+0.24+0.11+0.07+0.02+0.02+0.01= 1

2) P_i \geq 0 , \forall i=1,2,...,n

So we satisfy the two conditions so then we have a probability distribution

b) P(C \geq 1)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(C \geq 1)= 1-P(C

c) P(C=0) = 0.05

d) For this case we see that the result from part b use the probability calculated from part c using the complement rule.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following probability distribution given:

C    0        1        2         3       4       5        6       7        8      

P  0.05   0.14   0.34   0.24  0.11  0.07  0.02  0.02  0.01

And we assume the following questions:

a) Verify that this is a probability distribution

We need to check two conditions:

1) \sum_{i=1}^n P_i = 1

0.05+0.14+0.34+0.24+0.11+0.07+0.02+0.02+0.01= 1

2) P_i \geq 0 , \forall i=1,2,...,n

So we satisfy the two conditions so then we have a probability distribution

b) What is the probability one randonmly chosen classmate has at least one child

For this case we want this probability:

P(C \geq 1)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(C \geq 1)= 1-P(C

c) What is the probability one randonmly chosen classmate has no children

For this case we want this probability:

P(C=0) = 0.05

d) Look at the answers for parts b and c and explain their relationship

For this case we see that the result from part b use the probability calculated from part c using the complement rule.
