Answer:

Tiffany purchase the better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Tiffany paid  = $38

snowflake obsidian = 9 pounds

Tony paid = $19

same type of stone = 3 pounds

solution

Tiffany shopped well in this scenario. Mainly because Tiffany paid less per pound than Tony. This can be calculated by dividing the total amount paid by the amount received by each

so for Tiffany

= $38 ÷ 9

= $4.22 per pound

and for Tony  

=$19 ÷ 3

= $6.33 per pound

so that here Tiffany paid $4.22 per pound and Tony paid $6.33 per pound

so here whole $2.11 more than Tiffany

so that with this Tiffany purchase the better buy.

The Australian sheep dog is a breed renowned for its intelligence and work ethic. It is estimated that 45% of adult Australian s
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Probability of more than 9 adult Australian sheep dogs out of 12 weighing 65 lb or more

P(X > 9) = 0.00788

Step-by-step explanation:

The only assumption required for the question is that all 12 adult dogs sampled must all be Australian sheep dogs.

This is a binomial distribution problem

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = number of adult dogs to be sampled = 12

x = Number of successes required = number of dogs that weigh 65 lb or more

= more than 9; >9

p = probability of success = probability of a dog weighing 65 lb or more = 0.45

q = probability of failure = probability of a dog NOT weighing 65 lb or more = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55

P(X > 9) = P(X=10) + P(X=11) + P(X=12)

Solving each of these probabilities, using the binomial distribution formula

P(X = x) = ¹²Cₓ (0.45)ˣ (0.55)¹²⁻ˣ with x = 10, 11 and 12

P(X > 9) = P(X=10) + P(X=11) + P(X=12)

= 0.00679820806 + 0.00101130368 + 0.00006895252

= 0.00787846427

= 0.00788 to 3 s.f

Hope this Helps!!!

How do you convert 7/6 into a mixed number
Natali [406]
Wel its kinda difficult to say but look on how much times 6 can fit into 7 which is 1 but that will be 6,so in order to become seven you need 1 which is our left over number,so in the end you will get 1 whole and 1/6 and you use the leftover number as your numerator and just leave the 6 as it was.Whoof that was long but its no nearly as long as i explain it.

19 + x/2 = 4<br> How do I do this
GuDViN [60]

Answer: x = -30

Steps:  19 + x/2 = 4

Subtract 19 from both sides: 19 + x/2 - 19 = 4 - 19

Simplify: x/2 = 15

Multiply both sides by two: x/2 (2) = -15 (2)

Simplify: x = -30
