N x 100 = n%
An example:
<span>12 is 20% of 60. In order to get 12 percent of 60, all you need to do is to divide 12 with 60. To get the percent means to get the parts of 100. To get it in the form of percent, just multiply the quotient by 100. 12/60=.2 x 100 = 20% .</span>
we know that
The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.
The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.
If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella
then
the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.
Therefore
for all 5 to not have salmonella
= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776
= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places
REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella
Therefore
the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40
= 0.60
the answer is
0.60 or 60%
Answer:
$270
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
= 2x ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )
2x - 20 = 6x ( subtract 2x from both sides )
- 20 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )
- 5 = x , that is x = - 5
Answer:
<em>Tick:</em>
<em>- the coefficient of the second term is -5</em>
<em>- the coefficient of the fourth term is -10</em>
Explanation:
The coefficient of an expression is simply the number placed before and multiplying the variable (e.g. 10x ; the coefficient is 10, the variable is x)
Hope this makes sense. Feel free to inquire further if need be!
