Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 54% use them in meetings or classes (based on data from an lg sm

GuDViN [60]

Answer: 0.951%

Explanation:

Note that in the problem, the scenario is either the adult is using or not using smartphones. So, we have a yes or no scenario involved with the random variable, which is the number of adults using smartphones. Thus, the number of adults using smartphones follows the binomial distribution.

Let x be the number of adults using smartphones and n be the number of randomly selected adults. In Binomial distribution, the probability that there are k adults using smartphones is given by

$P(x = k) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}p^k (1-p)^{n-k}$

Where p = probability that an adult is using smartphones = 54% (since 54% of adults are using smartphones).

Since n = 12 and k = 3, the probability that fewer than 3 are using smartphones is given by

$P(x \ \textless \ 3) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2)
\\ \indent = \frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}(0.54)^0 (1-0.54)^{12-0} + \frac{12!}{1!(12-1)!}(0.54)^1 (1-0.54)^{12-1} + \\ \indent \frac{12!}{2!(12-2)!}(0.54)^2 (1-0.54)^{12-2}
\\
\\ \indent = \frac{12!}{(1)(12!)}(0.46)^{12} + \frac{12(11!)}{(1)(11!)}(0.54)(0.46)^{11}+ \frac{12(11)(10!)}{(2)(10!)}(0.54)^2(0.46)^{10}
\\
\\ \indent = (1)(0.46)^{12} + (12)(0.54)(0.46)^{11}+ (66)(0.54)^2(0.46)^{10}
\\ \indent \boxed{P(x \ \textless \ 3) \approx 0.00951836732 }
$

Therefore, the probability that there are fewer than 3 adults are using smartphone is 0.00951 or 0.951%.

Her teacher would be 42. you would take 14 * 3 and get the teachers age.

Open or closed circle? What is the answer for the number line? What is the solution?

Amanda [17]

To isolate m, we'll multiply both sides by 8.

We go from m/8 < 4 to m < 32

This describes any number smaller than 32. We aren't including 32 itself, so we have an open circle at 32 on the number line. The shading is to the left since everything to the left of 32 is smaller than 32.

galben [10]

In effect, there is a proportional relationship between the mass and the volume of the pieces of metal. The equation of the line that adapts to the given data is given by: y = 0.1174x. Therefore the proportionality constant is 0.1174
