Answer:

0.6535

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that during a one-hour period twenty-five customers buy gasoline at this station.

Let X be the no of persons out of these 25 who pay by cash.

X has two outcomes and each trial is independent of other.

Hence X is binomial (n=25, p=0.40)

Required probability

= P(X\geq 10)\\=P(10)+P(11)+...+P(25)\\=\Sigma_{10}^{25}  25Cr (0.4)^r (1-0.4)^{25-r}

=0.6535

No it isn't because it wasn't an expression. An algebraic expression is a mathematical phrase that can contain ordinary numbers, variables (like x or y) and operators (like add,subtract,multiply, and divide)

Theorem: the sum of any two even integers equals 4k for some integer k. "proof: suppose m and n are any two even integers. by de
icang [17]

Remark

The proof is only true if m and n are equal. Make it more general.

m = 2k

n = 2v

m + n = 2k + 2v = 2(k + v).

k and v can be equal but many times they are not. From that simple equation you cannot do anything for sure but divide by 2.

There are 4 combinations

m is divisible by 4 and n is not. The result will not be divisible by 4.

m is not divisible by 4 but n is. The result will not be divisible by 4.

But are divisible by 4 then the sum will be as well. Here's the really odd result

If both are even and not divisible by 4 then their sum is divisible by 4
