Answer:
a) The probability that at least 2 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.1875 = 18.75%.
b) The probability that at most 4 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.96875 = 96.875%.
c) The probability that exactly 3 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.3125 = 31.25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each smoker, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they started smoking before 21 years old, or they did not. Smokers are independent, which means that 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.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
50% of adult smokers started smoking before 21 years old.
This means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]
5 smokers 21 years old or older are randomly selected, and the number of smokers who started smoking before 21 is recorded.
This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex].
a) The probability that at least 2 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is
This is:
[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.03125[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.15625[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.03125 + 0.15625 = 0.1875[/tex]
The probability that at least 2 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.1875 = 18.75%.
b) The probability that at most 4 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.03125[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5) = 1 - 0.03125 = 0.96875[/tex]
The probability that at most 4 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.96875 = 96.875%.
c) The probability that exactly 3 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is
This is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.3125[/tex]
The probability that exactly 3 of them started smoking before 21 years of age is 0.3125 = 31.25%.

Determine whether the statement is always, sometimes, or never true. Lines AB, CD, and EF determine plan P. If GH intersects AB, then GH lies on plan P.
=======================================================
Explanation:
The plane P can be thought of a perfectly flat ground. Now imagine a flag pole which represents line GH. If AB is drawn in chalk on the pavement, and this line AB intersects the base of the flagpole, then we've made AB and GH intersect. However, this example shows that GH is not on the plane P.
Is it possible to have GH be in the the plane? Yes. We could easily draw another chalk line on the ground to have it intersect AB somewhere. But as the previous paragraph says, it's also possible that GH is not in the plane.
Therefore, the statement is sometimes true

What is the range of possible sizes for side x?
Answer:
x = 3.96
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the missing side length you'll need the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b would be the shorter ends, 2.8 and 2.8
c would be the longer end that's opposite the right angle.
so substitute values
2.8^2 + 2.8^2 = c^2
7.84 + 7.84 = c^2
15.68 = c^2
√15.68 = √c^2
3.959797 = c
c = 3.96
side c would be side x so x is 3.96

Find the sum of -3x2 -4x+3 and 2x2-x+3
Answer:
Assuming the 2 at the ends are the exponents,
the answer is -x^2-5x+6 (x^2+5x-6)
from here, it cannot be simplified more
Explanation --
Just add everything by putting the terms in parentheses and adding them.
Keep simplifying by putting the like terms together and adding/subtracting them.
At the end, you come up with -x^2-5x+6, so multiply -1 on the whole thing (by putting parentheses on its sides. This makes x positive. But they are the same thing, but this step is just for simplifying the end product a little more.

Which value of x makes the equation 2+4(6-2x)= 8 true?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2+4(6-2x)=8
2+24-8x=8
26-8x=8
26-8=8x
18/8=x
2.25=x
substitute the value of x
2+4(6-2x)
2+4(6-2*2.25)
2+6
8
therefore 8=8 so it is true

Anthony deposits 1,250 in a savings account with an interest rate of 6% if the Interest rate is compounded monthly than the account balance after t years is given by the expression below 1250(1+0.06/12)^12t what does (1+0.06/12t) represent
(nevermind srry, that was wrong)
Answer: represents the growth factor which reveals the monthly interest rate.
Step-by-step explanation:
Anthony's account balance can be modeled by the general compound interest formula shown below, where P is the initial amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times that the interest in the account is compounded per year, and t is the time period.
Consider the given expression.
1250(1+0.06/12)^12t
In the given expression, "1" represents 100% of the money in the account at the start of the month and "" represents the percentage of the account balance that gets added into the account at the end of each month. This is the monthly interest rate and the entire expression,(1+0.06/12t) , is the factor of growth.
Therefore, (1+0.06/12t)represents the growth factor which reveals the monthly interest rate.

A car travels at an average speed of 52 miles per hour. How long does it take to travel 247 miles?
Answer:
It takes 4.75 hours(4 hours and 45 minutes) to travel 247 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved by rates, using a rule of three.
52 miles in one hour. How many hours for 247 miles?
1 hour - 52 miles
x hours - 247 miles
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]52x = 247[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{247}{52}[/tex]
[tex]x = 4.75[/tex]
It takes 4.75 hours = 4 hours and 3/4*60 = 45 minutes to travel 247 miles.

Determine the smallest integer value of x in the solution of the following inequality.
-3x+10≤5
Answer: The smallest integer value of x in the solution is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given inequality: [tex]-3x+10\leq5[/tex]
To solve the inequality, we first subtract 10 from both sides
[tex]-3x+10-10\leq5-10\\\\\Rightarrow\ -3x\leq-5[/tex]
Multiply negative sign on both sides ,we get
[tex]3x\geq5[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3, we get
[tex]x\geq\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
i.e. [tex]x\geq 1.6666666667\\[/tex]
[tex]x\geq1[/tex]
Hence, the smallest integer value of x in the solution is 1.
A tube-feeding formula is administered to a patient via Gastrostomy at 75
ml/hr. The formula contains 6.5% protein. How much protein will the patient
receive in the entire day, if the feeding must be held (stopped) for 2 hours
before and 2 hours after the administration of Dilantin twice a day?
39
Answer:
97.5ml protein
Step-by-step explanation:
20hr * 75ml/hr = 1500ml
1500ml * .065 = 97.5ml protein
The patient will receive 78 ml protein in the entire day.
What is an expression?An expression is a number, or a variable, or a combination of numbers and variables and operation symbols.
Now it is given that,
Tube feeding formula = 75 ml/hr
Protein content = 6.5% of 75 ml/hr = 0.065*75 ml/hr
⇒ Protein content = 4.875 ml/hr
Now since, the feeding must be held (stopped) for 2 hours before and 2 hours after the administration of Dilantin twice a day
So, Stoppage total hours = 2(2 + 2) = 2*4
⇒ Stoppage total hours = 8
Thus, total hours in a day when formula is feed = 24 - 8 = 16 hours
Thus Protein received by patient = 16hr * 4.875 ml/hr
⇒ Protein received by patient = 78 ml
Thus, the patient will receive 78 ml protein in the entire day.
