B) x - 22 ≥ 28 ; x ≥ 50

C) x - 22 > 28 ; x > 50

D) x + 22 ≥ 28 ; x ≥ 72

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

spent 22 ---> x - 22.

at least 28 left ---> (x - 22) >= 28

SOLVE:

x - 22 >= 28

x >= 50

Answer:

B) x - 22 ≥ 28 ; x ≥ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original amount in the bank = x dollars,

After spending $ 22,

Remaining amount = ( x - 22 ) dollars,

∵ Remaining amount must be at least $ 28,

⇒ x - 22 ≥ 28

Which is the required inequality,

Add 22 both sides,

x -22 + 22 ≥ 28 + 22

x ≥ 50

Hence, option B is correct.

According to government data, 20% of employed women have never been married. If 10 employed women are selected at random, what i
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

a) P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

b) P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)

P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107

P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

And replacing we got:

P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678

c) For this case we want this probability:

P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302

P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268

P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 8) = 0.677

And replacing we got:

P(X\geq 8)=0.0000779

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Bin (n=10 ,p=0.2)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable "number of women that have never been married" , on this case we now that the distribution of the random variable is:  

X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.2)  

Part a

We want to find this probability:

P(X=2)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107

P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268

P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302

And replacing we got:

P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302

P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268

P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 8) = 0.677

Gianna is preparing for the upcoming tennis season. According to her schedule, she can complete at most 10 workouts this week. I
Strike441 [17]
The whole number of minutes that Gianna complete each week as a function of x and y:
45x+30y
Since the above number is greater than 450 minutes, we get the inequality:
45x+30y\geq450
Also, "she can complete at most 10 workouts this week" so we deduce the inequality:
\\x+y\leq10
Therefore, the system of inequalities is the following:
45x+30y\geq450
\\x+y\leq10
The above system has many solutions, for example :

Which number line represents the solution set for the inequality 3(8 – 4x) < 6(x – 5)?
MrMuchimi

The solution to the inequality is x > 3

The number line that represent the solution set will be:

<em>A number line from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. An open circle is at 3 and a bold line starts at 3 and is pointing to the right</em>. The correct option is the second option

<h3>Linear Inequalities </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the number line that represents the solution set for the given inequality

The given inequality is

3(8 – 4x) < 6(x – 5)

First, we will solve the inequality

3(8 – 4x) < 6(x – 5)

Clear the brackets

24 - 12x < 6x - 30

Collect like terms

24 + 30 < 6x + 12x

54 < 18x

Divide both sides by 18

3 < x

∴ x > 3

Hence, the number line that represent the solution set will be:

<em>A number line from negative 5 to 5 in increments of 1. An open circle is at 3 and a bold line starts at 3 and is pointing to the right</em>. The correct option is the second option
