Answer:
The equation for the amount of dollars pledged in total is f(M) = 2.00M + 7.25, and the amount for just Kiara is f(M) = 0.25M + 5.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount they pledge up front is a constant and therefore need to be added to the end of the equation. The amount per mile should be a variable amount. This gets multiplied by the M variable. So we start with the Kiara amount.
0.25 per mile = 0.25M
5.25 pledged = 5.25
Now put them together to get f(M) = 0.25M + 5.25
Do the same with Mark.
1.75 per mile = 1.75M
2.00 pledged = 2.00
Now put them together to get f(M) = 1.75M + 2.00
To get the final total, we add both equations together.
f(M) = 0.25M + 5.25 + 1.75M + 2.00
f(M) = 2.00M + 7.25
Answer:
Probability of having at least 4 Girls
= 0.6875
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of having at least 4 Girls is 1-probability of having exactly 3 girls
Total number of children= 5 = N
Probability of having a girl p = 0.5
Probability of not having a girl q= 0.5
X= 3
Probability of at least 4 girls is given by
Probability= NCX(p)^x(q)^(N-x)
Probability = 5C3(0.5)^3(0.5)^(5-3)
Probability = 5C3(0.5)^3(0.5)^2
Probability= 5!/3!2!(0.5)^3(0.5)^2
Probability= 10(0.125)(0.25)
Probability= 0.3125
Probability of having at least 4 Girls
= 1- 0.3125
= 0.6875
