Answer:

x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}

Step-by-step explanation:

5\ \text{km}=3.1\ \text{miles}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}=\dfrac{3.1}{5}=0.62\ \text{miles}

10\ \text{km}=6.2\ \text{miles}\\\Rightarrow 1\ \text{km}=\dfrac{6.2}{10}=0.62\ \text{miles}

Let y be the distance in miles. So distance in km is given by

x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}.

The equation that shows the approximate distance in kilometers as a function if the distance in miles is x=\dfrac{y}{0.62}.

In a recent survey, 64 % of the community favored building a police substation in their neighborhood. If 14 citizens are chosen,
kozerog [31]

Answer: 0.1840

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability formula :-

P(X)=^nC_x\ p^x(1-p)^{n-x}, here n is the number total of trials , p is the probability of getting success in each trial and P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trial.

Given : The probability of the community favored building a police substation in their neighborhood = 0.64

If 14 citizens are chosen, then the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police substation will be :-

P(8)={14}^C_{8}\ (0.64)^{8}(1-0.64)^{14-8}\\\\=\dfrac{14!}{8!6!}\times(0.64)^8(0.36)^{6}\\\\0.183996740126\approx0.1840

Hence, the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police substation = 0.1840
