Answer: A) 18

Step-by-step explanation: Let's subtract 59.87 - 42.1....

59.87 - 42.1 = 17.7

As you can see there no options representing 17.7, therefore, we have to round it up the nearest ones.

17.7 rounded to the nearest ones is 18.

I hope this helps!

Solve for x:5x/2=330/4

bezimeni [28]

First we have to get x by itself, so we multiply two on each side,

then we get 5x=660/4, I like to simplify here, so I would change it to 5x=165, then we divide each side by 5

x=33

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it contains a golden sheet of paper, or it does not. The probability of a container containing a golden sheet of paper is independent of other containers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper containers.

This means that $p = 0.3$

14 of these containers of paper.

This means that $n = 14$

What is the probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper?

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{14} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{13} = 0.0407$

$P(X = 2) = C_{14,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.1134$

$P(X = 3) = C_{14,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.1943$

$P(X = 4) = C_{14,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.2290$

$P(X = 5) = C_{14,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{9} = 0.1963$

$P(X = 6) = C_{14,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.1262$

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0068 + 0.0407 + 0.1134 + 0.1943 + 0.2290 + 0.1963 + 0.1262 = 0.9067$

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper
