a straight highway is 100 mile long and each mile is marked by a milepost numbered from 0 to 100. a rest area is going to be bui

lt along the highway exactly 5 miles away from milepost 63. if m is the milepost number of the rest area which of the following equations represents the possible locations for the rest area? A |63-m|=5 B |m-5|=63 C |m+5|=63 D |63+m|=5

B) m-5=63 is the answer

The answer is A

m is 5 miles away from mile post 63,so it's either
m=63+5 or m=63-5
63-m+5=0 or 63-m-5=0
63-m=-5 or 63-m=5

|63-m|=5

scoray [572]
<span>In the question "Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression represents her gross pay each day" To obtain the expression that represents her gross pay each day, we divide the given expression by 7 to get (35h + 56) / 7 = 35h / 7 + 56 / 7 = 5h + 8 Therefore, the expression that represents her gross pay each day is 5h + 8.</span>

mike and mandy bought the same item mike aid 15,000 mandy got a discount and paid 3,00 less how much of a discount did she get??
Arada [10]
She got a 20% discount (or 80% discount). (Work shown for 80%).
First you have to find out how much Mandy paid. So from 15000 you will subtract 3000. 15000-3000=12000.
Next you need to set up your equation. \frac{1200}{15000}= \frac{x}{100}. You then have to cross multiply. So 100 times 12000, 100*12000=1200000. And 15000 times x is 15000x. Finally you divide both sides by 15000. And 1200000 divided by 15000 is 80. X=80

mezya [45]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

 Yes the selection of 15 is a binomial  experiment

b

   P(r =  15) =  3.2768 *10^{-11}

c

  P(r  =  5) =  0.1032

d

P(r \ge 1 ) =  0.9648

Step-by-step explanation:

considering question a

Generally for and experiment to be binomial

The trial must be independent

There must be only two outcomes for each trial

Generally given that that the 15 adults are selected randomly which mean that the trials will be independent and that desired outcome is ''ether the adult save something for retirement or the adult saves nothing for retirement ''

Then we can say that the selection of 15 adult at is a binomial experiment

Considering question b

Generally the probability that all of the adults save nothing for retirement is mathematically represented as

P(r =  n) =  ^nC_r * p^r *  q^{n-r}

Here C stands for combination

r = 15 i.e all the selected adults

      n is the sample size with value  15

From the question p = 0.20

and q is calculated as

q =  1 - p

=> q =  1 - 0.20

=> q =  0.80

So

P(r =  15) =  ^{15}C_{15} * p^{15} *  q^{15-15}

P(r =  15) =  3.2768 *10^{-11}

Considering question c

Generally the probability that exactly five of the selected adults save nothing for retirement is mathematically represented as

P(r  =  5) =  ^{15} C_5 * (0.20)^5 *  (0.80)^{15}

P(r  =  5) =  0.1032

Considering question d

Generally the probability that at least one of the selected adults saves nothing for retirement is mathematically represented as

P(r \ge 1 ) =  1 - P (r = 0 )

P(r \ge 1 ) =  1 - [ ^{15} C _ 0 *  (0.20)^{0} * (0.80 )^{15}]

P(r \ge 1 ) =  1 - 0.0352

P(r \ge 1 ) =  0.9648
