This problem can be solved by using the binomial distribution.
p = 30% = 0.3 is the probability that a teacher was laid off.
q = 1 -p = 0.7 is the probability that a teacher was not laid off.
n = 16 is the sample size.
r = 7 is the expected number of teachers who were laid off
The probability that 7 out of 16 teachers were laid off is
₁₆C₇ p⁷q⁽¹⁶⁻⁷⁾ = 11440*(0.3⁷)*(0.7⁹) = 0.101 =10.1%
Answer:
The probability is 0.101 or 10.1%
Answer:
179 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
- Divide both sides by 75.5 to see how many minutes it would take to drive 1 mile. (54 / 75.5) =108/151
- She can drive 1 mile in 108/151 minutes
- Times by 250. (108/151 * 250) 178.8
- 179 to nearest minute
