The answer is 2.05.

you can make the fraction into a decimal, 3/4=0.75, then you just add 0.75 to 1.3.

Answer:

−p3q2r−p3qr2−p2q3r−p2q2r2−p2qr3+pq3r2+pq2r3

Step-by-step explanation:

(p2qr+pq2r+pqr2)((−p)(q)+qr+−pr)

(p2qr)((−p)(q))+(p2qr)(qr)+(p2qr)(−pr)+(pq2r)((−p)(q))+(pq2r)(qr)+(pq2r)(−pr)+(pqr2)((−p)(q))+(pqr2)(qr)+(pqr2)(−pr)

−p3q2r+p2q2r2−p3qr2−p2q3r+pq3r2−p2q2r2−p2q2r2+pq2r3−p2qr3

−p3q2r−p3qr2−p2q3r−p2q2r2−p2qr3+pq3r2+pq2r3

what do i write for this " Write a problem that requires adding 1 to the quotient when interpreting the remainder."

Mariana [72]

You should write a ( real world situation ) question that can only have whole numbers as a solution because you would divide and then you can not have a fraction left over so instead you add one. For instance there are 132 students going on a field trip. 20 students can fit on each bus. how many buses are needed? 7 because when you divide 132 by 20 you get 6 remainder 12. You can not just make 12 students walk to the location so you would add an extra bus.

Louden County Wildlife Conservancy counts butterflies each year. Data over the last three years regarding four types of butterfl

MrRa [10]

Incomple question. However, here's the remaining part of the question:

2009

Meadow Fritillary= 5

Variegated Fritillary= 7

Zebra Swallowtail= 33

Eastern-Tailed Blue= 242

Louden County Butterfly Count

2010

Meadow Fritillary 34

Variegated Fritillary 95

Zebra Swallowtail 21

Eastern-Tailed Blue 168

2011

Meadow Fritillary

Variegated Fritillary

Zebra Swallowtail

Eastern-Tailed Blue

170

Options:

A) All butterfly populations are steadily decreasing.

B)All butterfly populations were larger than usual in 2010.

C)The Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than the others.

D)The Meadow Fritillary is equally common as the Variegated Fritillary

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking through the above count data by Louden County Wildlife Conservancy from 2009 to 2011 we notice the Eastern- Trailed Blue butterfly has a higher count, which implies that the Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than the other butterflies.

Therefore, we could infer from the samples, that the Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than others from the records of the past 3 three years.

When Ryan is serving at a restaurant, there is a 0.75 probability that each party will order drinks with their meal. During one

Triss [41]

Answer:

0.82 = 82% probability that at least one party will not order drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

For each party, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will order drinks with their meal, or they will not. The probability of a party ordering drinks with their meal is independent of other parties. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

When Ryan is serving at a restaurant, there is a 0.75 probability that each party will order drinks with their meal.

This means that $p = 0.75$

During one hour, Ryan served 6 parties. Assuming that each party is equally likely to order drinks, what is the probability that at least one party will not order drinks?

6 parties, so n = 6.

Either all parties will order drinks, or at least one will not. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X = 6) + P(X < 6) = 1$
