The workers' union at a particular university is quite strong. About 96% of all workers employed by the university belong to the

workers' union. Recently, the workers went on strike, and now a local TV station plans to interview 4 workers (chosen at random) at the university to get their opinions on the strike. What is the probability that exactly 3 of the workers interviewed are union members?

Answer: 0.14155776

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The proportion of workers employed by the university belong to the workers' union=0.96

Let x be a binomial variable that represents that worker belongs to the workers' union.

Sample size : n= 4

P(x=3)=^4C_3(0.96)^3(0.04)^1\\\\=(4)(0.96)^3(0.04)=0.14155776

[Binomial probability formula : P(X=x)=^nC_x(p)^x(1-p)^{n-x}]

Hence, the probability that exactly 3 of the workers interviewed are union members =0.14155776

Mel works as a delivery person for Amazon. The graph shows a linear model for his delivery times on
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Point slope form: -9 = m(3)

Slope intercept form: y = -3x + 30

At x = 0, his delivery time was 30 minutes. It decreased by 3 minutes per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 points to calculate the line.

(3, 21) x1 y1

(6, 12) x2 y2

First, we need to calculate the slope.

m =

m =

m = -3

Point slope form is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

So for our case:

-9 = m(3)

And slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b

We need to solve for the y intercept (b)

y = -3x + b --- enter the slope

21 = -3(3) + b --- enter in any point on the line for x and y

21 = -9 + b

b = 30 --- solve for b

Now our slope intercept form of the line is:

y = -3x + 30

At x = 0, his delivery time was 30 minutes. It decreased by 3 minutes per day.
