Answer: 0.0386

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The probability hat the frozen chickens contain enough salmonella bacteria to cause illness if improperly cooked : p= 0.30

Sample size : n = 12

Let x = Number of contaminated chickens

Here , two outcomes for any chicken (either contaminated or not) , so it follows binomial distribution.

Binomial probability formula:

P(X=x)  = \ ^nC_x p^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The probability that the consumer will have more than 6 contaminated chickens :-

P(X>6)=P(X=7)+P(X=8)+P(X=9)+P(X=10)+P(X=11)+P(X=12)\\\\=^{12}C_6(0.3)^6(0.7)^6+^{12}C_7(0.3)^7(0.7)^5+^{12}C_8(0.3)^8(0.7)^4+^{12}C_9(0.3)^9(0.7)^3+^{12}C_{10}(0.3)^{10}(0.7)^2+^{12}C_{11}(0.3)^{11}(0.7)^1+^{12}C_0(0.3)^{12}(0.7)^0

=0.03860084306\approx0.0386<em>  (simplified)</em>

<em />

Hence, the required probability = 0.0386

An item sells for $30 and is on sale for 15% off and the sales tax is 8.2%. What is the final cost to the nearest cent?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

$27.59

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First we calculate the sales tax:

30 x .15 = 4.5

30 - 4.5 = 25.5

2) Now we calculate sales tax

25.5 x .082 = 2.09

25.5 + 2.09 = $27.59

5. Amy deposited $7,000 in a bank account earning 3.5% interest, compounded
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = $7,000

Interest = 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035

To find the future value, we would use the compound interest formula;

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where;

A is the future value.

P is the principal or starting amount.

r is annual interest rate.

n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year.

t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

A = 7000(1 + \frac{0.035}{n})^{nt}
