Answer:The first issue one most notice is the words “at least” We are trying to find the probability of at least 2 girls.
The five possible outcomes for girls are 0,1,2,3,4. The odds of 1 girl out of 4 is .25 and the odds of 1 boy out of 4 is .25 (same as the odds of 3 out of 4 girls). Therefore the odds of 1 OR 3 girls must be .5 because 1 girl and 3 girls each has a .25 probability. If the probability of (1 OR 3 girls) equals .5, then the probability of 2 girls must be a different number.
The probability of 2 or more girls, is the sum of the probability of 4 girls (.06125)(—-.5 to the 4th power—— ), plus the probability of 3 girls (.25)——(the same as the probability of 1 boy)—- plus the probability of 2 girls. Since we know the probability of zero boys is .0625 (again, .5 to the 4th power) and the probability of 1 boy is .25 (the same as the probability of 3 girls )———then the probability of 2 girls is ((1 minus (the sum of the probability of 0 OR 1 boys) plus the (sum of the probability of 3 or 4 girls)), or 1-((.0625+.25)+(.0625+.25)), or .375. We had to derive the probability of two from the other known probabilities. Therefore .375+.25+.0625=.6875 is the probability of both AT LEAST 2 girls and also NO MORE than 2 boys. Notice this adds up to 1.375 because the probability of the central number 2 (i.e., .375) appears on both sides.

Answer:
A) 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
For this case we know that the total distance to travel is 325 mi. And we know that Aretha travels at the following velocity:
Then we can use the following definition:
Where D is the distance and V the velocity. And solving for t we got:
And replacing we got:
So then we can conclude that after 5 hours at this rate Aretha will arrive to home

Five consecutive integers are:
n, n+1, n+2, n+3, n+4 the sum of which is:
5n+10=265 subtract 10 from both sides
5n=255, divide both sides by 5
n=51
Our fifth number was n+4 so the fifth number is 55
