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%
We are given with the coordinates of one of the points of a line which is
(1,2)
In order to generate an equation of a line, we need at least one other point or the slope of the line. If we are given with the slope of line, we can use the point slope form which is
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
substituting
y - 2 = m(x - 1)
Answer:
use -4y for x in the second equation
-4 y + 5 y = 2
so
y = 2
then x = -4(2) = -8
(-8 , 2)
