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

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

696 large bags of flour were packed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let large bags of flour be 'y'

Let small bags of flour be 'x'. That is x=2040 (according to the question)

(3 \times x) + (5 \times y) = 9600

(3 \times 2040) + ( 5 \times y) = 9600

(6120) + (5 \times x) = 9600

(5 \times x) = 9600 - 6120

(5 \times x) = 3480

x = 3480  \div 5

x = 696

andreyandreev [35.5K]

your options are Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. With the compass point still on B, draw two arcs that intersects the circle with center A.

Use a straightedge to join the four points where the circles intersect.

Draw and label the points where the circles with centers A and B intersect and where the circles with centers A and C intersect.

Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. Using this compass width, put the compass point on A and draw another circle.
