You could make a tree diagram
                  H                          T                               ← 1st toss

           H           T               H          T                       ← 2nd toss

     H       T    H      T       H     T    H    T                   ← 3rd toss
etc ,,, then count the combination of favorable outcomes

Using a calculator:
Total number of outcomes is 2^{7} = 128
Probability of getting exactly 3 heads is found using the follow calculator feature: binompdf(7, 0.5, 3) 

ANSWER: Typed into the calculator as follows binompdf(7,0.5,3)×128 = 35

(14.14) larry reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria. so he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking. if eggs do
melomori [17]

we know that

The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.

The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.

If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella

then

the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.

Therefore

for all 5 to not have salmonella


= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776

= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places


REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella


Therefore

the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40

= 0.60


the answer is

0.60 or 60%

Osvoldo has a goal of getting at least 30% of his grams of carbohydrates each day from whole grains. Today, he ate 220 grams of
pochemuha

Answer:

Answer: Osvoldo did not meet his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total carbohydrate ate by Osvoldo = 220 g

carbohydrate from grains = 55 g

Percentage of carbohydrate of grain is

\begin{gathered}=\dfrac{\text { carbohydrate taken from grains}}{\text {Total carbohydrate}} \times 100\\\\= \dfrac{55}{220} \times 100= 25 \%\end{gathered}

=

Total carbohydrate

carbohydrate taken from grains

×100

=

220

55

×100=25%

Goal of getting carbohydrate from grains = at least 30%

but he ate only 25% of carbohydrate

Hence, Osvoldo did not meet his goal as he ate less carbohydrate than his goal.
