(2−2n)−(5n−27) >0

distribute

2-2n -5n +27 >0

combine like terms

-7n +29 >0

subtract 29 from each side

-7n> -29

divide by -7 (flips the inequality)

n < -29/-7

n <4.14

natural numbers are 1,2,3,4......

n must be 1,2,3,4

Answer: 1,2,3,4

(2 - 2n) - (5n -27) > 0

-7n +27 + 2 > 0

-7n > -29

n < 29/7 < 4.143

So the natural values of n to make the expression positive are

1, 2, 3 and 4 (answer)

If the odds of catching the flu among individuals who take vitamin C is 0.0342 and the odds of catching the flu among individual

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Correct option (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an individual catching a flu when he or she has taken vitamin C is, P (F|C) = 0.0342.

The probability of an individual catching a flu when he or she has not taken vitamin C is, P (F|C') = 0.2653.

Th ratio of individuals who caught the flu when they did not take vitamin C to those who took vitamin C is:

$=\frac{P(F|C')}{P(F|C)}\\ =\frac{0.2653}{0.0342} \\=7.7573$

This implies that:

$P(F|C')=7.7573\times P(F|C)$

Thus, the the individuals not taking vitamin C are 7.7573. Times more likely to catch the flu than individuals taking vitamin C.

The statement is True.

They could miss each other 30 different ways. I solved this by drawing it out six different stores and making Alice and Betsy go to each one may different times.

When a problem involves more than one unit for a characteristic ( such as length) how can you tell which unit use is more approp

Art [367]

In the absence of clues, it is a judgment call.

Often, the problem statement or answer choices will tell you the desired units.

In general, units are available so that you can express dimensions in 4 or fewer digits with appropriate units. There are a few gaps, but the reason units are what they are is to make expressing everyday values easy to do.

SI units are easy to work with on this score, as the various available prefixes ensure that you can always express a quantity using a number between 1 and 1000. This is generally what you want to do (in the absence of direction otherwise).

For some things, there are customary units that are expected. Vehicle speed is unusally miles (or kilometers) per hour, for example. Land area is usually square feet, acres, or square miles in US units, or square meters, hectares, or square kilometers in SI units.

Generally, too, it is appreciated by your reader if the units you choose are ones they are familiar with. In most applications, you'd choose feet or yards or miles instead of furlongs, for example (unless your audience is familiar with racetrack distances).
