Answer:

I would use the pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning behind using the pound is, if you are using fractions per say to get a side by side ration when you are doing 16 ounces to 1 pound you would want to have a unit rate.

750 ounces 16 ounces

------------------- -----------------

x pounds 1 pound

Do you see how much easier it is to convert from ounces to pounds when you have a unit rate? Now once you see how many times you had to multiply 16 to get 750 you can easily multiply that number by 1!

Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 61% use them in meetings or classes. If 8 adult smartphone user

Answer:

0.1147

Step-by-step explanation:

When adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 61% use them in meetings or classes, then

the probability of using the smartphone is $p=0.61;$

the probability of not using the smartphone is $q=1-p=1-0.61=0.39.$

If 8 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, the probability that exactly 3 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes can be calculated using binomial distribution as

$C^8_3\cdot p^3\cdot q^{8-3}=C^8_3\cdot (0.61)^3\cdot (0.39)^5$
