Hi!

To find a decimal you need to divide the numerator, which is 1, and the denominator, which is 4.

1 ÷ 4 will be the equivalent to 0.25.

Therefore, your answer is 0.25

~Hope this helped! :D

Hello there!

To find the decimal of a fraction, you just need to take the numerator or the number on top and divide it by the denominator which is the number at the bottom.

Therefore,

1/4 as a decimal is 0.25

As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!

Suppose approximately 75% of all marketing personnel are extroverts, whereas about 70% of all computer programmers are introvert

Setler [38]

Answer:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1.000$ ---- At least 5 from marketing departments are extroverts

$P(x=15) = 0.013$ ---- All from marketing departments are extroverts

$P(x = 0) = 0.002$ ---------- None from computer programmers are introverts

Step-by-step explanation:

See comment for complete question

The question is an illustration of binomial probability where

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$(a):\ P(x \ge 5)$

$n = 15$ --- marketing personnel

$p = 75\%$ --- proportion that are extroverts

Using the complement rule, we have:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)$

So, we have:

$P(x < 5) =P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4)$

$P(x = 0) = ^{15}C_{0} * (75\%)^0 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 0} = 1 * 1 * (0.25)^{15} = 9.31 * 10^{-10}$

$P(x = 1) = ^{15}C_{1} * (75\%)^1 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 1} = 15* (0.75)^1 * (0.25)^{14} = 4.19 * 10^{-8}$

$P(x = 2) = ^{15}C_{2} * (75\%)^2 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 2} = 105* (0.75)^2 * (0.25)^{13} = 8.80 * 10^{-7}$

$P(x = 3) = ^{15}C_{3} * (75\%)^3 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 3} = 455* (0.75)^2 * (0.25)^{12} = 0.0000153$

$P(x = 4) = ^{15}C_{4} * (75\%)^4 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 4} = 1365 * (0.75)^4 * (0.25)^{11} = 0.000103$

So, we have:

$P(x < 5) = (9.31 * 10^{-10}) + (4.19 * 10^{-8}) + (8.80 * 10^{-7}) + 0.0000153 + 0.000103$

$P(x < 5) = 0.00011922283$

Recall that:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)$

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - 0.00011922283$

$P(x \ge 5) = 0.9998$

$P(x \ge 5) = 1.000$ --- approximated

$(b)\ P(x = 15)$

$n = 15$ --- marketing personnel

$p = 75\%$ --- proportion that are extroverts

So, we have:

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$P(x=15) = ^{15}C_{15} * 0.75^{15} * (1 - 0.75)^{15-15}$

$P(x=15) = 1 * 0.75^{15} * (0.25)^{0$

$P(x=15) = 0.013$

$(c)\ P(x = 0)$

$n=5$ ---------- computer programmers

$p = 70\%$ --- proportion that are introverts

So, we have:

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$P(x = 0) = ^{5}C_0 * (70\%)^0 * (1 - 70\%)^{5-0}$

$P(x = 0) = 1 * 1 * (0.30)^5$

$P(x = 0) = 0.002$

Cara and Jena, working together, can clean the house in 4

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{3}$ hrs/house

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate is the amount of work done per unit of time;

Let Cara's rate = C

Let Jena's rate = J

C + J = 4 ------ i

Now;

Working alone:

Jena takes twice as long as Cara

J = 2C ---- i

How long does it take Cara to clean a house alone

C + J = 4

J = 2C

C + 2C = 4

3C = 4

C = $\frac{4}{3}$ hrs/house
