Answer:

$14000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Amount earned by employee x = $5250

Time duration = 3weeks

Unknown:

Amount earned in 8 weeks = ?

Solution:

Let us first find the rate of employee x earning;

Rate = $\frac{Amount earned}{Time duration}$

Insert parameters;

Rate = $\frac{5250}{3}$ = $1750/week

So,

In 8 weeks;

Amount earned = rate x time duration

Amount earned = $1750/week x 8weeks

Amount earned = $14000

6 high school seniors choose from among 20 quotes for their yearbook. What is the probability that at least 2 of them choose the

shusha [124]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, we have that:

There are 6 students, hence n = 6.

There are 20 quotes, hence the probability of each being chosen is p = 1/20 = 0.05.

The probability of one quote being chosen at least two times is given by:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1).

Then:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.05)^{0}.(0.95)^{6} = 0.7351$

$P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.05)^{1}.(0.95)^{5} = 0.2321$

Then:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.7351 + 0.2321 = 0.9672.

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.9672 = 0.0328$

0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

There are 6 yellow hexagons 2 red trapezoids and 9 green triangles how many flowers could you make if they were changed 30 yello

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

<h3>a) 5 flowers</h3><h3>b) Trapezoid</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

For one flower, the following shapes are used;

6 yellow hexagons, 2 red trapezoids and 9 green triangles

If we are given 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles, to get the number of flowers we can make, we will find the greatest common factor of 30, 50 and 60

30 = 6*5

50 = (2*5)+40

60 = (9*5)+15

We can see that 5 is common to all the factors. This means that we can make 5 flowers if they were changed to 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles.

Since there are 40 trapezoids left and 15 green triangles left, hence the shape that would have n as left over most is trapezoid (40 left over)
