Answer:

0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of having at least one girl out of 3 children can be calculated as;

P(1 girl, 2 boys) or P(2 girls, 1 boy) or P(3 girls)

Since the P(b) = P(g) = 1/2

Then the probability at any point in time is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

So we have ;

1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 = 3/8 = 0.375

The equation of line m is 3x−5y=−4.
a_sh-v [17]
I line that is perpendicular is a line with reversed slopes like 2/1 is perpendicular to -1/2. So find the slope by getting the y by itself and reverse it. Remember to switch the signs too! P.S. if you don't know how to get the y by itself just take and subtract 3x from -5y and -4 then divide by 5. Hope I helped!

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes fuel economy values that are known to be good estimates of the fuel economy
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95. So we have T = 1.7531

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7531\frac{0.78}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.34

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 23.29 - 0.34 = 22.95 mpg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 23.29 + 0.34 = 23.63 mpg

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Andrew has three times as many pencils as Noah and five pens he has 17 pens and pencils altogether how many pencils does Noah ha
Novay_Z [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property does not appear to be involved in this question.

Let n represent the number of Noah's pencils. Then Andrew's total is ...

  3n +5 = 17

  3n = 12 . . . . . subtract 5 from both sides

  n = 4 . . . . . .  divide both sides by 3

Noah has 4 pencils.
