Divide by 2 and find out.
4/9 / 2
Multiply by its reciprocal:
4/9 * 1/2
Multiply the numerators and denominators together:
4/18
4/18 does not equal 8/18, so 4/9 isn't half of 8/18.
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%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call y the number of patients treated each week
Let's call x the week number.
If the reduction in the number of patients each week is linear then the equation that models this situation will have the following form:
Where m is the slope of the equation and b is the intercept with the x-axis.
If we know two points on the line then we can find the values of m and b.
We know that During week 5 of flu season, the clinic saw 90 patients, then we have the point:
(5, 90)
We know that In week 10 of flu season, the clinic saw 60 patients, then we have the point:
(10, 60).
Then we can find m and b using the followings formulas:
and 
In this case: 
and 
Then:
And
Finally the function that shows the number of patients seen each week at the clinic is:
I have no idea, do you mean y=mx+n cause if so it's already in that form instead that fact that the 7 is supposed to be a y
Answer:
y = 7x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
