Answer:

x≥4

Step-by-step explanation

24+4x≥40. Subtract 24 from both sides to get 4x≥16. Divide both sides by 4 to get x≥4.

Answer:

<em>it requires more than or equal to 4 tanks</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

An elephant needs to drink at least 40 gallons of water each day. A drinking tank contains 4 gallons of water. The elephant has already consumed 24 gallons of water. How many more tanks x of water does the elephant need to drink? Write your answer as an inequality.

An elephant drinks 40 gallons of water

a tank contains 4 gallon of water

lets convert the 40 gallons of water to tanks,t

40/4=10t

the elephant has consumed 24 gallons already

it means it has consumed 24/4=6t

x=more tanks need to drink

xt+6t≥10t..................1

xt≥10t-6t

x≥4

it requires more than or equal to 4 tanks

Answer:

The required probability is 0.55404.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The number of typographical errors on a page of the first booklet is a Poisson random variable with mean 0.2. The number of typographical errors on a page of second booklet is a Poisson random variable with mean 0.3.

Average error for 7 pages booklet and 5 pages booklet series is:

λ = 0.2×7 + 0.3×5 = 2.9

According to Poisson distribution: {\displaystyle P(k{\text{ events in interval}})={\frac {\lambda ^{k}e^{-\lambda }}{k!}}}

Where \lambda is average number of events.

The probability of more than 2 typographical errors in the two booklets in total is:

P(k > 2)= 1 - {P(k = 0) + P(k = 1) + P(k = 2)}

Substitute the respective values in the above formula.

P(k > 2)= 1 - ({\frac {2.9 ^{0}e^{-2.9}}{0!}} + \frac {2.9 ^{1}e^{-2.9}}{1!}} + \frac {2.9 ^{2}e^{-2.9}}{2!}})

P(k > 2)= 1 - (0.44596)

P(k > 2)=0.55404

Hence, the required probability is 0.55404.
