Answer:

P(more than 2 don't show up)=0.2031

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication rule for independent events:

If two events A and B are independent then the multiplication rule state that:

P(A and B)= P(A) x P(B)

Find the probability that more than two do not show up:

The probability that the reservations at the restaurant do not show up is 0.20 (=20%) and there were 8 reservations.

P(more than 2 don't show up)= 1- P(less than or equal to 2 don't show up)

= 1-( P(none show up) +P(one don't show up)+P(two don't show up)

=1- ((0.8⁸) +₈ C₁ (0.2¹)x(0.8⁷)  +₈ C₂ (0.2²)x(0.8⁶)

=1- (0.1678 +0.3355+0.2936)= 1-0.7969

P(more than 2 don't show up)=0.2031

Mrs. Nestler enjoys listening to classical music. She has the following audio CDs by her favorite composers in her collection: 4
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

10.55% probability

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the CDs are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

1 Bach CD, from a set of 4.

1 Beethoven CD, from a set of 6.

1 Brahms CD, from a set of 3.

1 Handel CD, from a set of 2.

So, D=144

4 CDs from a set of 4+6+3+2 = 15.

So, T= 1365

p= D/T= 144/1365 = 0.1055

10.55% probability that she will choose one by each composer

The Reverend Henry Whitehead was skeptical of John Snow's conclusion about the Broad Street pump. After the Broad Street cholera
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The main reason it was important to study this group was:

1) If Whitehead had found that many people had drunk water from the Broad Street pump and not caught cholera, that would have been evidence against Snow's hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

But Dr. John Snow was able to convince many councillors who ensured that the pump handle was removed from the Broad Street pump.  Within a few days of this removal, the cholera epidemic ended.  This step proved that Dr. Snow was right from the beginning.  The pump handle was the means that the cholera epidemic was being spread from one person to another within Broad Street area, since many usually fetch water from the pump.

Match each polynomial expression to its additive inverse
zvonat [6]

Answer:

   (1, 2, 3, 4) matches (A, C, B, D)

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive inverse of a term is formed by changing the sign. The additive inverse of the polynomial is formed by changing the sign of every term.

If we call the expressions on the left (top-to-bottom) 1, 2, 3, 4, and those on the right A, B, C, D, then the match-up <em>in this presentation of the question</em> is ...

  1 - A

  2 - C

  3 - B

  4 - D

_____

YMMV if the expressions are mixed differently
