Answer:
0.1x+0.15(50-x)= 50*0.12
Step-by-step explanation:
50 ml of 12% solution has 50*0.12 ml of alcohol
x ml of 10% solution has x*0.1 ml of alcohol
(50-x) ml of 15% solution has (50-x)*0.15 ml of alcohol
The equation to solve is:
Answer:
The probability that they are both male is 0.424 (3 d.p.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the probability of the first selection being male. This is calculated as number of male mice divided by total number of mice in the litter
Prob (1st male) = 8 ÷ 12 = 0.667
Next is to find the probability of the second selection also being male. Note that the question states that the first mice was selected without replacement. This means the first mouse taken results in a reduction in both the number of male mice and total number of mice in the litter.
Prob (2nd male) = (8 - 1) ÷ (12 - 1) = 7/11 = 0.636
Therefore,
Prob (1st male & 2nd male) = 0.667 × 0.636 = 0.424
The solution for this problem would be:
Given that there is 99.999%.
Let denote n as the network servers and p as the reliability of each server.
So the probability that the network uptime = 1 - (1 - p)^n
Therefore, (1-p) ^n = 0.00001
a. x= log(1-.99999)÷log(1-.97)= 3.2833 is the answer
1-(1-.97)^3= 0.99999 + 0.0001 = 1
b. x = log(1-.99999)÷log(1-.88) = 5.43 is the answer
1-(1-.88)^3= 0.99 + 0.0001 = approx 1
The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2
You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
