Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The total probability of an experiment is always 1.

There are 25 kids, so Probability of 20 or fewer kids ADDED to the probability of atleast 21 kids will be equal to 1 !!

Given Probability of 20 or fewer kids liking pizza is 57%

Hence Probability of atleast 21 kids liking pizza will be 1 - 57%

$1-0.57=0.43$

So, probability that at least 21 kids in the group like pizza is 43%

Answer choice A is right.

What is the true solution to the equation below?

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The solution is:

$x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$lne^{lnx}+lne^{lnx}^{^2}=2ln8$

$\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)}\right)+\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)\cdot \:2}\right)=2\ln \left(8\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \:log_a\left(a^b\right)=b$

$\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)}\right)=\ln \left(x\right),\:\space\ln \left(e^{\ln \left(x\right)2}\right)=\ln \left(x\right)2$

$\ln \left(x\right)+\ln \left(x\right)\cdot \:2=2\ln \left(8\right)$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:\ln \left(x\right)+2\ln \left(x\right)=3\ln \left(x\right)$

$3\ln \left(x\right)=2\ln \left(8\right)$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3$

$\frac{3\ln \left(x\right)}{3}=\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}$

$\ln \left(x\right)=\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}.....A$

Solving the right side of the equation A.

$\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}$

As

$\ln \left(8\right):\quad 3\ln \left(2\right)$

Because

$\ln \left(8\right)$

$\mathrm{Rewrite\:}8\mathrm{\:in\:power-base\:form:}\quad 8=2^3$

⇒ $\ln \left(2^3\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \log _a\left(x^b\right)=b\cdot \log _a\left(x\right)$

$\ln \left(2^3\right)=3\ln \left(2\right)$

So

$\frac{2\ln \left(8\right)}{3}=\frac{2\cdot \:3\ln \left(2\right)}{3}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:3=6$

$=\frac{6\ln \left(2\right)}{3}$

$\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{6}{3}=2$

$=2\ln \left(2\right)$

So, equation A becomes

$\ln \left(x\right)=2\ln \left(2\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule}:\quad \:a\log _c\left(b\right)=\log _c\left(b^a\right)$

$=\ln \left(2^2\right)$

$=\ln \left(4\right)$

$\ln \left(x\right)=\ln \left(4\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:log\:rule:\:\:If}\:\log _b\left(f\left(x\right)\right)=\log _b\left(g\left(x\right)\right)\:\mathrm{then}\:f\left(x\right)=g\left(x\right)$

$x=4$

Therefore, the solution is

$x=4$

Mrac [35]

Answer:

Strength and direction of the relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A study finds a correlation coefficient of r = .32. This number gives you information about which of the following?

Group of answer choices Type of relationship and importance Statistical validity and external validity Statistical significance and effect size Strength and direction of the relationship.

We know that correlation coefficient represented by r is a measure of association between two variables. r can lie between -1 and 1. While negative correlation suggests inverse relationship positive a positive association.

0 correlation means the two variables are independent.

If nearer to 0, it represents weak correlation and nearer to 1 than 0 represents strong correlation.

Here r =0.32 a weak positive correlation

r represents

Strength and direction of the relationship.
