laiz [17]

Answer:

0.0906

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the prevalence of a certain type of tree allergy is 0.26 in the general population

X- the no of persons having tree allergy is binomial since each persons is independent of the other and there are two outcomes.

Here n = 100

Required probability = the probability that exactly 26 of them will have this allergy

=P(x=26)=100C26(0.26)^{26} (1-0,26)^{100-26}\\ =0.09063\\=0.0906

A pencil and a ruler cost $1.50 together. The ruler costs $1.00 more than the pencil. How much does the pencil cost?
saveliy_v [14]
The pencil costs $0.25.

One way to deduce this is to divide 1.50 by 2 (equaling 0.75) and then subtracting .5 to get 0.25 because if it's $1 more, then the ruler would cost 0.75 + 0.5 and the pencil would cost 0.75 - 0.5, making a total of $1.50.

Another way is to make it an equation. Let's say the ruler is r dollars and the pencil is p dollars.
r + p = 1.50
r = p + 1.00
If we know these two equations, then you can substitute p + 1.00 in the 1st equation (instead of r). This gets us:
p + 1.00 + p = 1.50
You can simplify this into:
2p + 1.00 = 1.50
Then you subtract 1.00 from both sides:
2p = 0.50
And you divide 2 from both sides:
p = 0.25
Getting you the answer of:
The pencil costs $0.25

Hope this helps! :)

Four grey polygons join together as shown in the diagram. I’ve calculated angle a but I don’t know angle b. Angle a is 108
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Part 1) a=108^o

Part 2) b=24^o

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the measure of angle a

we know that

The formula to calculate the measure of the interior angle of a regular polygon is equal to

\frac{180^o(n-2)}{n}

where

n is the number of sides of the regular polygon

For the regular pentagon in the figure

n=5

substitute in the formula

a=\frac{180^o(5-2)}{5}

a=\frac{180^o(3)}{5}

a=108^o

Part 2) Find the measure of angle b

Remember that a regular polygon has equal sides and equal interior angles

so

In the figure , the length of the side of the two smaller equilateral triangles is equal to the length of the side of the regular pentagon

therefore

The triangle in white of the figure is an isosceles triangle

The measure of the vertex angle of the isosceles triangle is equal to

360^o-(108^o+60^o+60^o)=132^o

Remember that

The sum of the interior angles of triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

2b+132^o=180^o

solve for b

2b=180^o-132^o

2b=48^o

b=24^o

At a certain company, loan agents are paid based on the number of loans they close in a day. Based on company records, the numbe
Ilya [14]

Answer:

C. The mean daily salary is greater than $350 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Y = a + bX

where,

Y = money made by a random selected

a = $150

b = $50

X = number of loan

Now

E(x) = (1 × 0.05) + (2 × 0.10) + (3 × 0.22) + (4 × 0.30) + (5 × 0.18) + (6 × 0.12) + (7 × 0.03)

= 3.94

Now

E(y) = $150 + ($50 × 3.94)

= $347

hence, the option C is not correct

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.
