0.35 (15+x) = 0.27(15) + 0.5x

X = 8 liters

student randomly receive 1 of 4 versions(A, B, C, D) of a math test. What is the probability that at least 3 of the 5 student te

alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the students receive different versions of the math namely A, B, C and D.

So, the probability that a student receives version A = $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Thus, the probability that the student does not receive version A = $1-\frac{1}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ .

So, the possibilities that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A are,

1) 3 receives version A and 2 does not receive version A

2) 4 receives version A and 1 does not receive version A

3) All 5 students receive version A

Then the probability that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is given by,

$\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}$

= $(\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})^2+(\frac{1}{4})^4\times (\frac{3}{4})+(\frac{1}{4})^5$

= $(\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})[\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{1}{4})^2]$

= $(\frac{3}{4^4})[1+\frac{1}{16}]$

= $(\frac{3}{256})[\frac{17}{16}]$

= 0.01171875 × 1.0625

= 0.01245

Thus, the probability that at least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is 0.0124

So, in percent the probability is 0.0124 × 100 = 1.24%

To the nearest tenth, the required probability is 1.2%.

DESPERATE WILL GIVE BRAINLIST AND THANKS

Answer: What you must do for this case is to graph each of the ordered pairs that you have in the table to obtain the dispersion chart. Note that in your table you have eight ordered pairs, therefore, your scatter chart must have eight pairs.

X+5 divided by 3 is less than or equal to 2

hichkok12 [17]

$\frac{x+5}{3} \leq 2$
times both sides by 3
x+5≤6
minus 5 both sides
x≤1
