Answer:

b. the number of trucks a weigh station will inspect before finding one that is overloaded.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric distribution is a type of probability distribution that done repeatedly until the first success is observed.

Option b expresses a distribution that has one single success. The weighing of the trucks continues until one that is overloaded is found. This implies that the weighing would stop when the first overloaded truck is found, which is a form of geometric distribution.

Option a does not require a single outcome because more than one, or even none,  could reach the top of Mount Everest in the year.

Answer: C

both a and b

Step-by-step explanation:

Both options A and B deals with the number of trials required for a single success. Thus, they are negative binomial distribution where the number of successes (r) is equal to 1.

The geometric distribution is a special case of the negative binomial  distribution that deals with the number of trials required for a single success.

Komok [63]
We know that

step 1
the area to install tiles is equal to A
A=area rectangle-area of a circle

area of a rectangle=(13+x)*x-----> (13x+x²) ft²

area of a circle=pi*r²-----> pi*6²------> 36*pi ft²
A=(x²+13x)-36*pi  ft²

step 2
find the cost of installing tiles CT
CT=$1*[(x²+13x)-36*pi]-----> CT=$x²+$13x-$36*pi

step 3
find the cost <span>the of installing the pond CP
CP=$0.62*36*pi------> CP$22.32*pi

step 4
find the inequality
we know that
CT+CP </span>\leq<span> $536
[</span>$x²+$13x-$36*pi]+[$22.32*pi]  \leq $536

[$x²+$13x-$13.68*pi]  \leq $536

the answer is the option D

Leto [7]

Answer:

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation to find the value for c, we need to declare what c is first.

c = price of fruit

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Now we multiplied c to 2.45 and 1.65 and added them together, because whatever the value of c is will give us the equivalence of the sum of 4.12 + 0.75.

Now to check if the equation is right, let's solve for c.

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

4.1c = 4.87

Now to get the value of c, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.1.

\dfrac{4.1c}{4.1}=\dfrac{4.87}{4.1}

c = 1.19

Now let's substitute the value of c in the equation to see if we got it right.

2.45(1.19) + 1.65(1.19) = 4.12 + 0.75

2.92 + 1.96 = 4.87

4.87 = 4.87

Therefore concluding that the value of c is 1.19.

8090 [49]
Considering that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams and he made 9 loaves of bread using 30 grams each time, that equates to 270 grams of olives. 1000 - 270 = 730. Your answer is 730 grams of olives remain. Hope this helped.
