Todd is right

In preperation for an easter egg hunt, 4 blue eggs are filled for every 7 green. How many green eggs will be filled if 100 blue
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

1. Typed question: 175 green eggs

2. Attached: 22 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

For the question you typed down, it is a ratio and proportion problem. You need to solve for the ratio proportional to the first ratio given.

4 blue eggs are filled for every 7 green. This means that the ratio between blue eggs and green eggs is 4:7.

Now yo need to figure out a ratio proportional to 4:7 if 100 blue eggs were filled. Below is how this is set up:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}

Now let's solve for x:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}\\\\or\\\\\dfrac{4}{7}=\dfrac{100}{x}\\\\Cross-multiply\\\\4x = (7)(100)\\\\4x = 700\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;by\;4\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{700}{4}\\\\x=175

For your attached problem:

You have a total of 175 people, you need to figure out how many round tables you need if here are 8 chairs for each table You just need to divide the number of people by the number of chairs per table.

175 ÷ 8 = 21.9 tables

Now since you cannot have half a table, you round up to the nearest whole number. (we round up because you need to make sure that all of them are seated)

21.9 ≅ 22 tables.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States. In Australia, only 1.5% of
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

a. X is a binomial random variable with n = 50 and p = 0.04

b. Y is a binomial random variable with n = 40 and p = 0.015

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

X: the number of US residents (out of 50) with blood type AB.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States

This means that p = 0.04, n = 50

Y: the number of Australians (out of 40) with blood type AB.

In Australia, only 1.5% of the population has blood type AB.

This means that p = 0.015, n = 40

Z: the total number of individuals (out of 90) with blood type AB.

Here

n = 90, p = 0.04*\frac{50}{90} + 0.015*\frac{40}{90} = 0.0289

Which of the following is true about the random variables X, Y, and Z?

Options a and b are true, while c is false.

What is 78 million in scientic notation?
taurus [48]

In this problem, you are asked to write a number in scientific notation. In figures, 78 million would look like this:

78,000,000

To write this to scientific notation, you have to move the decimal point to the left until you will get a number between 1 and 10.

Here, you will have to move the decimal point 7 times to get 7.8

The exponent of the scientific notation is the number of times you moved your decimal point. Since the movement of decimal point is going to the left, you will have a positive exponent.

The scientific notation would look like this:

7.8 x 10^7
