This is a binomial experiment and you'll use the binomial probability distribution because:
- There are two choices for each birth. Either you get a girl or you get a boy. So there are two outcomes to each trial. This is where the "bi" comes from in "binomial" (bi means 2).
- Each birth is independent of any other birth. The probability of getting a girl is the same for each trial. In this case, the probability is p = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
- There are fixed number of trials. In this case, there are 5 births so n = 5 is the number of trials.
Since all of those conditions above are met, this means we have a binomial experiment.
Some textbooks may split up item #2 into two parts, but I chose to place them together since they are similar ideas.
Answer:
$57.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you want to do is convert 24% to a decimal. To do this you just need to take the current decimal place and move it 2 places to the left. Since this percentage is a whole number the decimal is just after the 4.
(0.24)
Multiply that decimal by the number you want to find the percentage of
$240 * .24 = $57.60
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x - 5 = -3
add 5 to both sides
-2x = 2
divide both sides by -2
x = -1
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3 is in the tens place representing the number 30.
