Answer:
Approximately 0.51
Step-by-step explanation:
binomial(16 + 7, 16) 2^(-(16 + 7)) = ((16 + 7)!)/(16! 7! 2^(16 + 7)) = 245157/8388608 ≈ 0.02922 ≈ 1/34.22
(assuming children are independent and male and female are equally likely)
| probability
less than 16 boys | 0.9534
16 or less boys | 0.9827
more than 16 boys | 0.01734
16 or more boys | 0.04657
fraction of boys | 16/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.695652
fraction of girls | 7/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.304348
expected value | 11.5
standard deviation | 2.398
variance | 5.75
11.5
Answer:
B) 0.85
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, complementary angles add to 90 degrees.
The given angle 58 degrees is complementary to 90-58 = 32 degrees. The two angles 58 and 32 add to 90.
Therefore, cos(32) = 0.848 = 0.85
