Answer:

0.7429

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  Of the 721 students at the college, 299 of them apply for loans when entering graduate school.

So p = proportion of students applying for loans = \frac{299}{721} =0.415

Each student is independent of the other and there are two outcomes

Hence out of 45 students the no of students who apply for loans say X is binomial with n =45 and p = 0.415

the probability that more than 16 of them apply for loans

=P(X>16)\\= \Sigma_{x=17} ^{45}  P(x)\\=\Sigma_{x=17} ^{45}(45Cx (0.415)^x (0.585)^{25-x} )

=0.7429

1/4x +4 = 1/2 solve with explanation
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

<h3>x = -14</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

1/4x +4 = 1/2

Solving for x

Subtract 4 from both sides

1/4x +4 - 4 = 1/2 - 4

1/4 x  = (1-8)/2

1/4 x = -7/2

Cross multiply

2x = -7*4

2x = -28

x = -28/2

x = -14

Hence the value of x is -14
