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:

As you can see I keep getting questions wrong.... Can you answer the last question?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

  y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...

  • all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
  • y is a factor of every exponent

The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

__

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.

  (3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)

  -5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3

  14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y

  y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution

______

The rules of exponents we used are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  1/a^b = a^-b
