Skyler's age is 72 and Kori's age is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: From the given details, form equations. Let the age of Skyler be x and that of Kori be 96 - x (since their sum is 96).
  • Step 2: Considering their ages 8 years ago, form equations.

⇒ (x - 8) = 4 (96 - x - 8)

⇒ (x - 8) = 4 (88 - x)

⇒ (x - 8) = 352 - 4x

⇒ 5x = 360

⇒ x = 72

  • Step 3: Calculate Kori's age

⇒ 96 - x = 24

One day, eleven babies are born at a hospital. Assuming each baby has an equal chance of being a boy or girl, what is the probab
Andrews [41]
You only need to consider the situations where 10 or 11 of the babies are girls, then subtract those probabilities from 1.  This will give probability that any other number up to 9 of the babies are girls.

Use binomial theorem.
P(x=k) = (nCk) p^k (1-p)^{n-k}

n = 11
k = 10,11
p = 1/2

P(x=10) = 11 (\frac{1}{2})^{11} = \frac{11}{2048} \\  \\ P(x=11) = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{11} = \frac{1}{2048} \\  \\ P(x \leq 9) = 1 - \frac{11}{2048} - \frac{1}{2048} \\  \\ P(x \leq 9)=\frac{2036}{2048} = \frac{509}{512}
