Part B is not clear and the clear one is;
P(X ≥ 6)
Answer:
A) 0.238
B) 0.478
C) 0.114
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;
P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)
A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;
p = 0.54
10 random adults are selected. Thus;
P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)
P(X = 5) = 0.238
B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)
From online binomial probability calculator, we have;
P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478
C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)
Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;
P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114
8/10 or 4/5 is what makes up the remaining oceans
Answer:
It is A
Step-by-step explanation:
The guy below is wrong because I got a 100 on the quiz on Edge.
Given:
The table of values of an exponential function.
To find:
The missing values in the exponential function.
Solution:
The general exponential function is defined as:
...(i)
Where, a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.
First point from the given table is (1,10). It means, the equation (i) must be true for (1,10).
...(ii)
Second point from the given table is (2,20). It means, the equation (i) must be true for (2,20).
...(iii)
Dividing (iii) by (ii), we get


Putting
in (ii), we get



Putting
in (i), we get

The required exponential function for the given table of values is
. So, the missing values are 2 and x, where 2 is in the base and x is in the power.
Call the notebooks x, and the pencils y.
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 and 5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>Then just solve as simultaneous equations: </span>
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 </span>
<span>5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>5(3x + 4y = 8.5) </span>
<span>3(5x + 8y = 14.5) </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>Think: DASS (Different Add, Similar Subtract). 15x appears in both equations so subtract one equation from the other. Eassier to subtract (15x + 20y = 42.5) from (15x + 24y = 43.5) </span>
<span>(15x + 24y = 43.5) - (15x + 20y = 42.5) = (4y = 1) which means y = 0.25. </span>
<span>Then substitue into equation : </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 5 + 42.5 </span>
<span>15x = 42.5 - 5 = 37.5 </span>
<span>15x = 37.5 </span>
<span>x = 2.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>15(2.5) + 24(0.25) </span>
<span>37.5 + 6 = 43.5 </span>
<span>So x (notebooks) are 2.5 ($2.50) each and y (pencils) are 0.25 ($0.25) each.</span>
