Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
A marketing firm is considering making up to three new hires.
Let X be the variable describing the number of hiring in the company.
Thus, x can take values 0,1 ,2 and 3.
a) P(firm will make at least one hire)
Also,
b) expected value and the standard deviation of the number of hires.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to make a box like this:
║ ---------- ║------------ ║ label one side percent and the other amount
║ x% ║ 96 kg ║
║ _ _ _║_____ _║ Now if the patient originally weighed 102 kg which
║100% ║ 120 kg ║ is 100% place the numbers in the bottom box.
║ _ _ _ ║ _ _ _ ║ and if the patient currently weighs 96 kg then let
Percent Amount percentage of the weight lost be x. Now cross multiply. You should get 100*96=120*x. Simplify that to get 9600=120x, now divide by 120 on both sides and you get 80 so x= 80. But the problem isn't done yet. Now you have to subtract 80% from 100% to find the weight lost, because 80% is the percentage of the current weight. after you have subtracted you get 20
20% of the original weight was lost.
Well, let us solve this step by step.
We know that Michelle earns 349 plus 3% of the Purchase
price. Let us call the Purchase price as P, so that:
Earnings, E = 349 + 0.03 P
So if she earns 8,965 (E = 8,965) so we can find P:
8,965 = 349 + 0.03 P
0.03 P = 8,616
P = $287,200
Answer: A diameter goes straight across the circle and passes through the center point (point M). A radius stops at the center point, making the line go halfway across the circle (basically half the diameter). A chord goes across the circle, but does not go through the center point. Therefore, the answer is C, because it does not go through the center point.
