Answer:

21.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The gecko is 3.5 inches to start with.

If it grows at a rate of 1.2 inches per month for the first 12 months, after 12 months the gecko will be 14.4 inches larger. (Because 12 times 1.2 is 14.4)

So, after 12 months the gecko will be 17.9 inches.

Since the gecko grows at 0.4 inches per month for the next 16 months, and the gecko has grown for 20 months, all we need to do is subtract 12 from 20 (since we already calculated how long it will be after 12 months) and multiply that by 0.4.

Since 20 - 12 is 8, we just multiply 8 by 0.4 to get 3.2. We now add 3.2 to 17.9 to get 21.1 inches.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

coins have 2 sides, tails and heads, so for it to land on tails is a 1/2 chance. Dice have 6 sides and 1,3,5 are all odd so its a 3/6 chance. Simplify 3/6 to 1/2 and multiply by 1/2 to get 1/4. im not sure, its my guess.

A homeowner finds that there is a 0.15 probability that a flashlight does not work when turned on. If she has three flashlights,
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A) 0.386

B).0.325

Step-by-step explanation:

probability p will not work = 0.15

Q probability w5ill work = 0.85

Number of flashlight = 3

Probabilty of at least one=

1- probability of none

But probability of none= 3C0(p)^0(q)^3

= 1*(0.15)^0(0.85)^3

= 1*1*(0.614)

= 0.614

Probability of at least one=1-0.614

= 0.386

Probability of two flashlight work

= 3C1(0.15)^1(0.85)^2

= 3*(0.15)*(0.7225)

= 0.325
