28.3

Step-by-step explanation:

the difference is the answer to a subtraction problem so we can plug in our numbers like this

25.6-(-2.7) which equals 28.3

a good thing to remember when subtracting negative numbers is that a positive and negative won't always make a negative like in this example

0.6(10n + 25) = 10 + 5n
drek231 [11]

Answer: n=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute: 0.6(10n+25)=10+5n   0.6(10n)= 6n   0.6(25)=15   so then you put the problem together again... 6n+15=10+5n then you cancel out the n variable... 10-15=-5   6n=-5+5n   6n-5n=1n   1n=-5   -5/1   n=-5

Assume that 63% of people are left-handed. If we select 5 people at random, find the probability of each outcome described below
mash [69]

Answer:

a. 0.9931

b. 0.3423

c. 0.3907

d. 0.2670

e. 3.15

f. 1.0796

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the variable that said the number of left-handed people follow a Binomial distribution, so the probability is:

P(x)=nCx*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}

nCx is calculated as:

nCx=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Where x is the number of left-handed people, n is the number of people selected at random and p is the probability that a person is left--handed. So P(x) is:

P(x)=5Cx*0.63^{x}*(1-0.63)^{5-x}

Then the probabilities P(0), P(1), P(2), P(3), P(4) and P(5) are:

P(0)=5C0*0.63^{0}*(1-0.63)^{5-0}=0.0069

P(1)=5C1*0.63^{1}*(1-0.63)^{5-1}=0.0590

P(2)=5C2*0.63^{2}*(1-0.63)^{5-2}=0.2011

P(3)=5C3*0.63^{3}*(1-0.63)^{5-3}=0.3423

P(x)=5C4*0.63^{4}*(1-0.63)^{5-4}=0.2914

P(x)=5C5*0.63^{5}*(1-0.63)^{5-5}=0.0993

Then, the probability P(x≥1) that there are some lefties among the 5 people is:

P(x≥1) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)

P(x≥1) = 0.0590 + 0.2011 + 0.3423 + 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.9931

The probability P(3) that there are exactly 3 lefties in the group is:

P(3) = 0.3423

The probability P(x≥4) that there are at least 4 lefties in the group is:

P(x≥4) = P(4) + P(5) = 0.2914 + 0.0993 = 0.3907

The probability P(x≤2) that there are no more than 2 lefties in the group is:

P(x≤2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) = 0.0069 + 0.0590 + 0.2011 = 0.2670

On the other hand, the expected value E(x) and standard deviation S(x) of the variable that follows a binomial distribution is:

E(x)=np=5(0.63)=3.15\\S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5(0.63)(1-0.63)}=1.0796

What is the missing numerator? blank over five plus eighteen over twenty equals thirty over twenty 8 5 3 2
Oliga [24]

Given:

\dfrac{?}{5}+\dfrac{18}{20}=\dfrac{30}{20}

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Let x be the missing value.

We have,

\dfrac{x}{5}+\dfrac{18}{20}=\dfrac{30}{20}

\dfrac{x}{5}+\dfrac{9}{10}=\dfrac{3}{2}

Subtract \dfrac{9}{10} from both sides.

\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{9}{10}

\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{15-9}{10}

\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{6}{10}

\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{3}{5}

Multiplying both sides by 5, we get

x=3

So, the missing value is 3.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
