Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways the answer to this question can be determined

Method 1 : the fast method

We know that 8 is twice 4

4 x 2 = 8

The ratio of diet soda = 8

the ratio of regular sodas = 4

Diet sodas = 112

the number of regular sodas = 112 / 2 = 56

Method 2 : The long method

I would first determine the total number of diet and regular sodas. Let the total number be represented by d

from the question, the following equation can be derived :

(8/12) x d = 112

divide both sides of the equation by 12/8 to determine the value of d

d = 112 x (12/8) = 168

We can now derive a value for the number of regular soda

regular sodas = ( ratio of regular sodas / total soda) x total number of sodas

(4/12) x 168 = 56

Which explicit formula gives the nth term of the sequence 0, 3, 8, 15, 24,... ?

LiRa [457]

Answer: add over and over again

Step-by-step explanation:How do you get from 0 to 3? you add 3 to 0. Then, how do you get from 3 to 8? you add another 3 but then you a 2 too, so then 8. Lastly, my last example, how to get from 8 to 15. You take five, and then add 2 to it and add that number(then number you get when you add 5+1), 7 to 8.

In the exercise, X is a binomial variable with n = 5 and p = 0.2. Compute the given probability. Check your answer using technol

Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.0512

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that X isa Binomial variable. Hence we solve this question, using the formula for Binomial probability.

The formula for Binomial Probability = P(x) = (n!/(n - x) x!) × p^x × q ^n - x

In the above question,

x = 3

n = 5

p = probability for success = 0.2

q = probability for failures = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

P(x) = (n!/(n - x) x!) × p^x × q ^n - x

P(3) = (5!/(5 - 3) 3!) × 0.2^3 × 0.8^5-3

P(3) =( 5!/2! × 3!) × 0.2³ × 0.8²

P(3) = 10 × 0.008 × 0.64

P(3) = 0.0512
