Answer:
Russell family's sprinkler: 40 hours
Gonzales family's sprinkler: 20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the amount of time the Russell family's sprinkler was on by X, and the Gonzales family's sprinkler by Y.
We can then formulate the equations:
X + Y = 60
X*35 + Y*40 = 2200
We can solve this system multiplying the first equation by 35, and then subtracting the result from the second equation:
35*X + 35*Y = 2100
5*Y = 100
Y = 20
from the first equation:
X + 20 = 60
X = 40
Russell family's sprinkler: 40 hours
Gonzales family's sprinkler: 20 hours
Answer: 5 minutes

Answer:
0.156
Step-by-step explanation:
Using binomial probability formula, we have :
P( a out of n ) =ⁿCₐ x pᵃ x qⁿ⁻ᵃ ------------------------------------------------- (1)
Where n = total number of sample
a = number of success
p = probability of success
q = probability of failure
n-a = number of failures
From the question:
n =10 , a = 7, p=0.54, q = 1-p = 0.46
Substituting into equation (1) we have:
P (7 out of 10) = ¹⁰C₇ x (0.54)⁷x (0.46)¹⁰⁻⁷
= 0.1563
≈ 0.156
Answer:
5/11
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 250 red out of 550 total
250 / 550 = 5/11
