Answer:

Pr(all will survive in one year) = 0.35 to 2 decimal places

Pr(at least 8 will survive) = 0.39 to 2 decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a tree surviving one year is 0.9. While not surviving probability is 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

This is obtained from the 90℅ surviving rate for one year planted by the landscaping firm.

Probability that if 10 trees are planted, all will survive for one year is:

0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9 = 0.9^10 = 0.349

Probability that at least 8 will survive in one year can be expressed as

8 survived x 2 not survived +(or) 9 survived x 1 not survived +(or) 10 survived

= [(0.9^8)x(0.1^2) + (0.9^9)x(0.1^1) + (0.9^10)] = 0.391

Step-by-step explanation:

you sell bracelets for $2 each and necklaces for $3 each at a local flea market. You collect$95, selling a total of 37 jewelry i
Alex787 [66]
The system of linear equations that may be used in order to solve this problem is as follows:

x + y = 37
2x + 3y = 95

This is considering that x is the number of bracelets sold and y is the number of necklaces.

The values of x and y in the equation are 16 and 31, respectively.

Thus, the answer is 16 bracelets and 21 necklaces.

Which choice gives the center and radius of the circle represented by the equation?
shutvik [7]
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 is the equation of a circle centered at (h,k) with radius r.

Here h=7, k=-3, and r^2=25\implies r=5. So the answer is (C)

Write $\frac{99}{100}\cdot(0.\overline{4})$ as a fully simplified fraction.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

  • \frac{11}{25}

Explanation:

The expression that must be rewritten as a fully simplified fraction is:

  • \frac{99}{100}\cdot(0.\overline{4})

You must, first, convert     0.\overline{4}    as a fraction.

The line over the decimal 4 means that the digit 4 repeats indefinetly.

To find the fraction that represents this number you follow this procedure:

F=0.\overline 4\\ \\ 10F=4.\overline 4\\ \\ 10F-F=4\\ \\ 9F=4\\ \\ F=4/9

Now, you can mutiply both fractions:

\frac{99}{100}.\frac{4}{9}=\frac{99\times 4}{100\times9}=\frac{11}{25}
