Answer:

16.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

If at least 7 are female, that means either 7 or 8 are female.

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

Here, n = 8, p = 0.65, and r = 7 or 8.

P = ₈C₇ (0.65)⁷ (0.35)⁸⁻⁷ + ₈C₈ (0.65)⁸ (0.35)⁸⁻⁸

P = (8) (0.65)⁷ (0.35)¹ + (1) (0.65)⁸ (0.35)⁰

P = 8 (0.65)⁷ (0.35) + (0.65)⁸

P = 0.169

Given m||n, find the value of x.<br> m<br> t<br> (5x-5)<br> (6x-27)
almond37 [142]

Step-by-step explanation:

due to the laws of symmetry of the angles of 2 crossing lines (and parallel lines are simply repeating and mirroring these angles), both angles must be equal.

5x - 5 = 6x - 27

-5 = x - 27

x = 22

What is the measure of KPN?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

angle KPN=95 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

angle KPN = angle JPO (because they are vertically opposite angles)

Now,

angle JPO+angle LOP=180 degree(being co interior angles)

angle JPO + 85 =180

angle JPO =180-85

angle JPO =95

since angle JPO is equal to KPN ,angle KPN is 95 degree
