There are 24 possible answers, 6 are correct answers and 18 are incorrect answers. By use of the hypergeometric distribution the probabilities of each possible number of randomly selected correct answers can be found, as follows:
P(0) = 0.1379, P(1) = 0.3819, P(2) = 0.341, P(3) = 0.1213, P(4) = 0.017, P(5) = 0.0008, P(6) = 0.000007.
The expected or mean number of correct answers is found from:
The answer is: 1.4998
Answer:
3.0cm*2.2cm = 6.6cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D.) because it cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers
Step-by-step explanation:
The root of any integer that is not a perfect square is irrational. 5 is not a perfect square, so is irrational—it cannot be expressed as the ratio of integers.

<em>Proof</em>
Suppose √5 = p/q, where p and q are mutually prime. Then p² = 5q².
If p is even, then q² must be even. We know that √2 is irrational, so the only way for q² to be even is for q to be even—contradicting our requirement on p and q.
If p is odd, then both p² and q² will be odd. We can say p = 2n+1, and q = 2m+1, so we have ...
p² = 5q²
(2n+1)² = 5(2m+1)²
4n² +4n +1 = 20m² +20m +5
4n² +4n = 4(4m² +4m +1)
n(n+1) = (2m+1)²
The expression on the left will be even for any integer n; the expression on the right will be odd for any integer m. This equation cannot be satisfied for any integers m and n, so contradicting our assumption √5 = p/q.
We have shown using "proof by contradiction" that √5 cannot be the ratio of integers.
Answer: 4 people
Step-by-step explanation:
4 times 1/5= 4/5
The 4 goes on top ( numerator ) and the 5 would go on the bottom ( denominator )
Also another way to solve this is to use decimal form.
4 times 0.2 ( 0.2=1/5 )= 0.8
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A is biased because those people at the grocery store will most likely like that grocery store, since they went there to shop in the first place.
B, C, and D are not biased because there is no correlation between the grocery store and the survey questions.
