Answer:

P(x = 5) = 0.2441

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p = 0.48 --- proportion that have very little confidence

n = 10 --- sample

Required

Determine the probability that exactly 5 have very little confidence

This question will be solved using binomial probability:

P(x) = ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

In this case: x = 5.

So, we have:

P(x = 5) = ^{10}C_5*0.48^5(1-0.48)^{10-5}

P(x = 5) = ^{10}C_5*0.48^5*0.52^5

P(x = 5) = 252*0.48^5*0.52^5

P(x = 5) = 0.2441

Two mechanics worked on a car. the first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. together the
Yuliya22 [10]
Let x and y be the rate per hour for Mechanic 1 and 2 respectively.

Then,
x+y=205 ---------- (1)
Additionally,
10x+15y = 2500 ------ (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2;
Multiply (1) by 10 and subtract two from the result,
10x+10y = 2050
10x +15 y =2500
----------------------
        -5 y = --450 => y = 450/5 = $90
Then,
x= 205-90 = $115

Therefore,
Mechanic 1 charged $115 per hour
Mechanic 2 charged $90 per hour

Find what n equals 8(2n-2) = 4 - 4n (explanation please)
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{n=1}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of n that satisfies this equation, we can perform a series of algebraic steps on it to solve for n.

  • 8(2n-2) = 4- 4n
  • <em>Distribute in the 8 on the left side:</em>
  • <em />16n-16=4-4n<em> </em>
  • <em>Add 4n to both sides</em>
  • 20n-16=4
  • <em>Add 16 to both sides</em>
  • 20n = 20
  • <em>Divide both sides by 20</em>
  • n=1

Therefore, n=1 is the value of n that satisfies this equation.

Hope this helped!
