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

Write the equation of a line that includes the point (22, 12) and
STatiana [176]

Let's start with y = 4x + b (since 4 is the slope);

We need to find what number should be put instead of b;

Then, let's see what needs to be done;

Plug in the y and x values from the coordinate (22,12) into y=4x+b;

12 = 4(22) + b

Solve;

12 = 88 + b

12 - 88 = b

b = -76

Remember the equation y = 4x + b? Put the -76 instead of b:

y = 4x + -76

or: y = 4x - 76

That is the equation.

To make it standard form, put x and y both in the left side, with x first then y:

-4x + y = -76

What is the perimeter of this shape?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

87 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Two of the sides here are unknown. The one on the leftmost side is equal to 9, since on the other side it also has a length of 9 feet. The section on the top right has a length of 30-9-9=12 units. Adding all of these values together now, you get a total perimeter of:

30+9+12+9+9+9+9=87 feet

Hope this helps!
