John runs a computer software store. Yesterday he counted 125 people who walked by the store, 66 of whom came into the store. Of

the 66, only 21 bought something in the store. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.


(b) Estimate the probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.



(d) Estimate the probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

A. Divide number of people in the shop by total people walking by:

66/125 = 0.528 = 0.53

B. Divide people who bought something by total people walking by:

21/125 = 0.168 = 0.17


d. 66 -21 = 45 people don’t buy anything.

45/66 = 0.68

Write an equation of a line passing through the point (4,-9) and parallel to the line 3x-6y=30
sesenic [268]

The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The equation of the given line is expressed as

3x - 6y = 30

Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes

6y = 3x - 30

Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes

6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6

y = x/2 - 5

Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2

To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute

x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c

- 9 = 2 + c

c = - 9 - 2

c = - 11

By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be

y = x/2 - 11

Triangle ABC is translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x + 2, y – 8). If the coordinates of the pre-image of point B are
yuradex [85]
Ans: (6,-13) 

Rationale: 

Simply take your pre-image (point before applying transformation) of point B (4,-5) and apply the transformation to each point. Therefore, (x,y) = (4+2,-5-8) = (6,-13)

In a​ study, 36​% of adults questioned reported that their health was excellent. A researcher wishes to study the health of peop
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

0.3907

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 36​% of adults questioned reported that their health was excellent.

Probability of good health = 0.36

Among 11 adults randomly selected from this​ area, only 3 reported that their health was excellent.

Now we are supposed to find the probability that when 11 adults are randomly​ selected, 3 or fewer are in excellent health.

i.e. P(x\leq 3)=P(x=1)+{P(x=2)+P(x=3)

Formula :P(x=r)=^nC_r p^r q ^ {n-r}

p is the probability of success i.e. p = 0.36

q = probability of failure = 1- 0.36 = 0.64

n = 11

So, P(x\leq 3)=P(x=1)+{P(x=2)+P(x=3)

P(x\leq 3)=^{11}C_1 (0.36)^1 (0.64)^{11-1}+^{11}C_2 (0.36)^2 (0.64)^{11-2}+^{11}C_3 (0.36)^3 (0.64)^{11-3}

P(x\leq 3)=\frac{11!}{1!(11-1)!} (0.36)^1 (0.64)^{11-1}+\frac{11!}{2!(11-2)!}  (0.36)^2 (0.64)^{11-2}+\frac{11!}{3!(11-3)!} (0.36)^3 (0.64)^{11-3}

P(x\leq 3)=0.390748

Hence  the probability that when 11 adults are randomly​ selected, 3 or fewer are in excellent health is 0.3907

Brianna and Holden hiked 6 2/9 miles on Monday and 2 2/3 miles on Tuesday. How many times as far did they hike on Monday as they
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

  2 1/3 times as far

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of distances is ...

  (Monday distance) / (Tuesday distance) = (6 2/9)/(2 2/3)

  = (56/9)/(8/3) = (56·3)/(8·9) = 7/3 = 2 1/3

They hiked 2 1/3 times as far on Monday as they did on Tuesday.
