Complete Question

According to a study done by a university student, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is 0.267 Suppose you sit on a bench in a mall and observe people's habits as they sneeze

(a) What is the probability that among 18 randomly observed individuals exactly 6 do not cover their mouth when sneezing?

Answer:

P(X=6)=(0.162)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=18

Probability P=0.267

No. that do not cover their mouth when sneezing x=6

Generally the equation for The Binomial distribution is mathematically given by

Parameters

B(18,0.267)

Therefore

P(X=x)=(18..x)(0.267)^x(1-0.267)^{18-x}

Where

x=6

Therefore

P(X=6)=(18..6)(0.267)^6(1-0.267)^{18-6}

P(X=6)=(0.162)

makkiz [27]
The toy rocket hits the ground when h(t) = 0.
So, h(t) = 0 = -9t^2 + 81.

Solving the equation,
-9t^2 = -81
Dividing by -9
t^2 = 9
Taking the square root.
t = 3

The answer is 3 seconds.

Use the table for 19-23. write each ratio in the form a/b and then as a decimal. Tell whether each decimal is a terminating or r
stellarik [79]
All you are basically doing is making ratios.
Basketball to football would be 5 to 11 or 5:11 or 5/11.
What you do is in the order you said it (basketball to football) you find that info and make it a ratio. A ratio must be simplified and can be written 3 ways, as shown above.

Hockey to lacrosse would be 6 to 10 and simplified would be 3 to 5.

Try doing 3 and 4 and 5 on your own to help you understand it more:) if you have any questions tell me.

Answer:

32 remainder 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide 162 by 5, we simply do the following:

5 goes into 16 => 3

Multiply 5 by 3 => 3 × 5 = 15

Subtract 15 from 16 => 16 – 15 = 1

Put the 1 before 2 => 12

5 goes into 12 => 2

Multiply 5 by 2 => 5 × 2 = 10

Subtract 10 from 12 => 12 – 10 => 2

In summary,

162 divided by 5 => 32 remainder 2
