<span>P(1 claim) = p/4
P(2 claims) = (p/4)/4 = p/16
You should see that the distribution follows a geometric series with common ratio 1/4.
Sum geometric = (first term) / (1 - common ratio) = p/(1 - 1/4) = 4p/3
But the sum of all the probabilites must equal 1 ----> 4p/3 = 1 ----> p = 3/4
P(2 or more claims) = 1 - P(0 claims) - P(1 claim) = 1 - 3/4 - 3/16 = 1/16</span>
Answer:
POINTS FOR HOW MANY?
THE ANSWER IS BRUCE
Step-by-step explanation:
Dime value: $0.10
Nickel value: $0.05
For this word problem, you are asked to create an algebraic expression (an equation) for the unknown variables.
Now, we know that a dime is worth $0.10 or 10 cents and a nickel is worth $0.05 or 5 cents. So, all you would have to do is create an equation that takes those values into account.
5n + 10d
Your algebraic expression would be B. 5n + 10d

Answer:
18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
3 men = 1 ton in 1 hour
6 men = 2 ton in 1 hour
9 men = 3 tons in 1 hour
with this you find a pattern
3 men = 2 tons in 2 hours
3 men = 3 tons in 3 hours
3 men = 6 tons in 6 hours
6 men = 12 tons in 6 hours
9 men = 18 tons in 6 hours
12 men = 24 tons in 6 hours
15 men = 30 tons in 6 hours
18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours
(This is how i worked it out)
Ratio and proportion
x/300=67/100
cross multiply
100x= 20100
x= 201 students
