Answer:
a) Binomial distribution B(n=12,p=0.01)
b) P=0.007
c) P=0.999924
d) P=0.366
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The distribution of cracked eggs per dozen should be a binomial distribution B(12,0.01), as it can model 12 independent events.
b) To calculate the probability of having a carton of dozen eggs with more than one cracked egg, we will first calculate the probabilities of having zero or one cracked egg.

Then,

c) In this case, the distribution is B(1200,0.01)

d) In this case, the distribution is B(100,0.01)
We can calculate this probability as the probability of having 0 cracked eggs in a batch of 100 eggs.

There are 16 ounces in one pound. So we do 7 divided by 16 to get our answer.
7 / 16 = 0.4375 ≈ 0.4 lbs
7 oz is approximately 0.4 lbs.

Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.
