The taxiFair in Gotham city is $2.40 for the first half mile additional mileage Charged at the rate of $.20 for each additional
1 answer:
Answer:
3.3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You have $10
Since you want to give $2 as tip, you actually have $10 - $2 = $8 [for mileage]
First half mile (0.5mi) is $2.40, so you will have remaining:
$8 - $2.40 = $5.6
Now,$0.20 is charged for 0.1 mile, how much can you go with $5.6?
We set up ratio and solve for the distance we can go with 5.6 (let this distance be x):
That is 2.8 miles with this
Remember, you have already taken into account 0.5 miles at the beginning, so total miles would be:
0.5 + 2.8 = 3.3 miles
With the tipping conditions and $10 budget, you can ride 3.3 miles

Answer:
P(X ≥ 1) = 0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The word "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" has 34 letters in which 'i' appears 7 times in the word.
Then; the probability of success = 7/34 = 0.20588
Using Binomial distribution to determine the probability; we have:
where;
x = 0,1,2,...n and 0 < β < 1
and x represents the number of successes.
However; since the letter is drawn thrice; the probability that the letter "i" is drawn at least once can be computed as:
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X< 1)
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X =0)
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.50
P(X ≥ 1) = 0.50
