<span>The term that you want is 5C2*p^2*q^3 representing 2 successes and 3 failures. This term's value is</span>

<span>(5C2)(0.5^5) = 10*0.03125 = 0.3125 = P(2 successes in 5 trials) =31.3% </span>

A weather forecaster says the temperature will be about-5C “give or take” 10 degrees. What is the greatest possible temperature?

IRINA_888 [86]

The greatest possible temperature is $5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and least possible temperature is $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that according to weather forecaster the temperature will be about -5 degree celsius given or take 10 degree”

Need to determine greatest possible temperature and least possible temperature.

Give and take in given statement means a temperature can go up by 10 degrees and can go down by 10 degrees

So greatest possible temperature will be $-5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}+10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Least possible temperature will be $-5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}-10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Hence according to weather forecaster, greatest possible temperature = $5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and least possible temperature = $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

If the distance traveled is (4s3 - 6s² + 4s + 14) miles and the rate is (s + 1) mph, write an expression, in hours, for the time

BartSMP [9]

The equation for time is URM:

$time = \frac{distance}{speed \: (rate)}$

$t(s) = \frac{4s {}^{3} - 6s {}^{2} + 4s + 14}{s + 1} = \frac{2(s + 1)(2s {}^{2} - 5s + 7) }{s + 1} \\ t(s) = 2(2s {}^{2} - 5s + 7) \\ t(s) = 4s {}^{2} - 10s + 14$
