1/4 is equal to 2/8.

2/8+1/8=3/8

Carla used 3/8 of the ribbon in all. So, 5/8 of the ribbon is left.

I hope this helps :)

What is the binomial expansion of (2x – 3)^5?

Tanya [424]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 3)^5 = C(5,0)2x^5*3^0 +

C(5,1)2x^4*3^1 + C(5,2)2x^3*3^2 + C(5,3)2x^2*3^3 + C(5,4)2x^1*3^4 + C(5,5)2x^0*3^5

Recall that

C(n,r) = n! / (n-r)! r!

C(5,0) = 1

C(5,1) = 5

C(5,2) = 10

C(5,3) = 10

C(5,4) = 5

C(5,5) = 1

= 1(2x^5)1 + 5(2x^4)3 + 10(2x^3)3^2 + 10(2x^2)3^3 + 5(2x^1)3^4 + 1(2x^0)3^5

= 2x^5 + 15(2x^4) + 90(2x^3) + 270(2x^2) + 405(2x) +243

= 32x^5 + 15(16x^4) + 90(8x^3) + 270(4x^2) + 810x + 243

= 32x^5 + 240x^4 + 720x^3 + 1080x^2 + 810x + 243

stat: sample of 780 adults in the U.S.A., it was found that 80 of those had a pinworm infestation. You want to find the 99% conf

Anettt [7]

Answer: 554

Step-by-step explanation:

If prior population proportion is known, then the formula to find the sample size is given by :-

$n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2$

As per given description, we have

p= 0.1

E=0.025

Critical z-value for 95% confidence : $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Then,

$n=0.1(1-0.1)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.025})^2=553.1904\approx554$

Hence, the minimum sample size required = 554.

bookstore ordered 1,528 packs of pens and 1,823 packs of pencils at the prices shown. how much did the bookstore spend on pens?

IgorC [24]

I found that the given prices are $ 4 per pack of pens and $ 3 per pack of penciles.

The question is how much the bookstore spent on pens.

Then you have to multiply the number packs of pens, which is 1,528, times the price per pack pens which is $ 4.

So, the answer is: 1528 packs of pens * $ 4 / pack of pens = $6112.
