Answer:

5 & 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y = 3 -> x = 3+y

x+y = 13 = 3+y+y -> 3+2*y = 13

2*y = 10 -> y = 5

-> x = 3+y = 8

One day, eleven babies are born at a hospital. Assuming each baby has an equal chance of being a boy or girl, what is the probab
Andrews [41]
You only need to consider the situations where 10 or 11 of the babies are girls, then subtract those probabilities from 1.  This will give probability that any other number up to 9 of the babies are girls.

Use binomial theorem.
P(x=k) = (nCk) p^k (1-p)^{n-k}

n = 11
k = 10,11
p = 1/2

P(x=10) = 11 (\frac{1}{2})^{11} = \frac{11}{2048} \\  \\ P(x=11) = 1(\frac{1}{2})^{11} = \frac{1}{2048} \\  \\ P(x \leq 9) = 1 - \frac{11}{2048} - \frac{1}{2048} \\  \\ P(x \leq 9)=\frac{2036}{2048} = \frac{509}{512}

Hi! When I type into the calculator and multiply 0.12 and 100 it comes out as 13.2, why is that?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

because it is a decimal so it multiplies 100 by the decimal which is a smaller number, almost like how when you divide it becomes a smaller number.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps:)
