To answer problems like this you have to use binomial:

P (x > 1) = 1 – p (0 < x < 1) > .7 

So:

1 – p (0) – p (1) > .7 

1 – (3/ 4) ^n – (3/ 4) ^n (n – 1 ) (1/ 4) > .7 

Therefore n > 5.185, and the smallest value of n so that we can satisfy the given condition is 6 (rounded up)

The denominator of a certain fraction was 147 greater than its numerator. what was the denominator of this fraction, if after th
Dafna1 [17]
After reducing the fraction it becomes equal to 5/12. Let the common element which was cancelled out be x. So we can say the original fraction was \frac{5x}{12x}.

The denominator of the fraction is 147 greater than the numerator. We can write it as:

12x = 147 + 5x

12x - 5x = 147

7x = 147

x = 21

So, the numerator of the fraction was 5 x 21 = 105
Denominator of the fraction was 12 x 21 = 252

So our original fraction was \frac{105}{252}

sweet [91]
A conservative vector field \mathbf f has curl \nabla\times\mathbf f=\mathbf0. In this case,

\nabla\times\mathbf f=12xy^2z(1-z)\,\mathbf j+4yz^2(2z-3x)\,\mathbf k\neq\mathbf 0

so the vector field is not conservative.
