Answer:
The probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats is 0.3115.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a baseball player has a batting average of 0.25 and we have to find the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats.
Let X = <u><em>Number of hits made by a baseball player</em></u>
The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 7 at-bats
             r = number of success = exactly 2 hits
             p = probability of success which in our question is batting average 
                    of a baseball player, i.e; p = 0.25
SO, X ~ Binom(n = 7, p = 0.25)
Now, the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats is given by = P(X = 2)
           P(X = 2) =   
 
                         =   
 
                         =  <u>0.3115</u>
 
        
             
        
        
        
Start by proving to them that the number 0.57 can be converted into a fraction . A whole number can't exactly be put in to a fraction. 0.57 can be converted to 14.25/25. This information means that 0.57 IS a rational number. Hope this convinced them!

Answer:
    8 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides on one side of the angle bisector are proportional to those on the other side. In the attached figure, that means
   AC/AB = CD/BD = 2/3
The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths, so is ...
   25 = AB + BC + AC
   25 = AB + 5 + (2/3)AB . . . . . . substituting AC = 2/3·AB. BC = 2+3 = 5.
   20 = 5/3·AB
   12 = AB
   AC = 2/3·12 = 8
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
The sum of ratio units is 2+3 = 5, so each one must stand for 25/5 = 5 units of length. 
That is, the total of lengths on one side of the angle bisector (AC+CD) is 2·5 = 10 units, and the total of lengths on the other side (AB+BD) is 3·5 = 15 units. Since 2 of the 10 units are in the segment being divided (CD), the other 8 must be in that side of the triangle (AC). 
Likewise, 3 of the 15 units are in the segment being divided (BD), so the other 12 units are in that side of the triangle (AB).
The remaining sides of the triangle are AB=12 and AC=8.
