To find the fraction for each day, we can divide the fraction for 5 days by 5. It will be written as
each day = 5 days ÷ 5

Now input the numbers
each day = 5/6 ÷ 5

transform to multiplication
each day = 5/6 × 1/5
each day = 5/30

simplify
each day = (5:5)/(30:5)
each day = 1/6

A real estate agent has 14 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a
Ratling [72]

Answer:

91.02% probability of selling more than 4 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is sold, or it is not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. 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.

In this problem we have that:

n = 14, p = 0.5

Compute the probability of selling more than 4 properties in one week.

Either you sell 4 or less properties in one week, or you sell more. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

P(X \leq 4)  + P(X > 4) = 1

We want to find P(X > 4). So

P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4)

In which

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

So

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

P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{14} = 0.000061

P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{13} = 0.000854

P(X = 2) = C_{14,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0056

P(X = 3) = C_{14,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0222

P(X = 4) = C_{14,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0611

So

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.000061 + 0.000854 + 0.0056 + 0.0222 + 0.0611 = 0.0898

Finally

P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4) = 1 - 0.0898 = 0.9102

91.02% probability of selling more than 4 properties in one week.

You are going on a road trip over a distance of 3000 kilometers with three friends. The car consumes 66 liters of gas per 100 ki
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Each person should chip in $0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost =3000km(66/100)(1.20/L)

                   =45.46 × 1.20

                     =$54.55

Cost per person = ($54.55/66)

                            =$0.83 person

Each person should chip in $0.83
