Answer:
If we want our ratio to stay the same (3 to 5), we'll need to pair a set of 3 blue tacks with every set of 5 red tacks. In a group of 50, we can make 10 groups of 5 red tacks, so we'll also need 10 groups of 3 blue tacks, which gives us a total of 30 blue tacks
Answer:
-8 -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it is the most reasonable
Answer:
4 boys, 3 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
brothers of John ⇒ x
sisters of John ⇒ y
John has as many brothers as sisters:
- x = y
brothers of Emily ⇒ x + 1 (Emily have the same amount of brother as John, plus one (John))
sisters of Emily ⇒ y -1 (Emily have the same amount of sister as John, minus one (herself))
Emily has twice as many brothers as sisters:
- 2 (y-1) = x+ 1
Now we have a system of 2 equations and 2 variables
x=y (I)
2y - 2 = x + 1 (II)
____________
Replace x in equation II
2y - 2 = y + 1
2y - y = 2 + 1
y = 3
____________
Replace y in equation I
x = y = 3
That mean that John have 3 brothers plus himself, there is 4 boys in the family and John have 3 sister, so there is 3 girls in the family
Answer:
a. Mean = 20
Sd = 4
b. Probability of X = 20 = 0.1960
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
n = 25
p = 80% = 0.8
mean = np
= 0.8 * 25
= 20
standard deviation = √np(1-p)
= √25*0.8(1-0.8)
=√4
= 2
probability that exactly 20 favours ban
it follows a binomial distribution
= 25C20 × 0.8²⁰ × 0.2⁵
= 53130 × 0.01153 × 0.00032
= 0.1960
Probability of X = 20 = 0.1960
