1/3−1/2=− -1/6

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1....Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes ....The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators. This fraction cannot be reduced.....and that's how i got the answer

The centers for disease control and prevention reports 25% baby boys 6 to 8 months in the US weigh more than 20 pounds a sample

Vesna [10]

Answer:

P(x < 3) = 0.1971

Explanation:

To calculate the probability that x babies weigh more than 20 pounds, we will use the binomial distribution, so it can be calculated as:

$\begin{gathered} P(x)=nCx\cdot p^x\cdot(1-p)^{n-x} \\ Where\text{ nCx=}\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} \\ \\ With\text{ n = size of sample} \\ p=\text{ probability of success \lparen the baby weight more than 20 pounds\rparen} \end{gathered}$

So, replacing n = 16 and p = 0.25, we get that the probability is equal to

P(x) = 16Cx (0.25)^x (1 - 0.25)^(16 - x)
