Answer:

0.8333%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that there is only one possible shortest route, the probability that a randomly selected route is given by one divided by the permutation of the order of five different sites:

P=\frac{1}{\frac{5!}{(5-5)!}}=\frac{1}{5*4*3*2*1}\\ P=0.008333=0.8333\%

There is a 1 in 120 chance, or 0.8333% chance that a randomly selected route is the shortest possible route.

Emily Dickinson's poetry was rescued for posterity by
LiRa [457]
Emily Dickinson's poetry was rescued for posterity by her sister (c). Emily Dickinson lived during the American Civil War, but she lived in her father's house in Amherst, Massachusetts. This area was not affected by the Civil War. She was fairly isolated as a poet and, as a result, the events of the Civil War did not play a major role in her poetry. She wrote mainly about the events in her direct environment, with no direct sense of the time in which she lived. Her world consisted of her own home and the surrounding countryside.

MAXImum [283]

The number of batches Nathaniel can make is 16.5 batches.

Nathaniel plans to make use of less than 40 cups of flour and he has already used 6 cups of flour. In order to determine how many batches he can make, we have to determine the number of cups of flour he can use. The cups of flour would be divided by the amount of flour that can be used to make a batch of muffins.

Maximum amount of flour Nathaniel can use = 39 - 6 = 33

Number of batches he can make = 33 / 2 = 16.5 batches
