Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:
a) The expression is [tex]\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)^{n}[/tex]
b) You need to select at least 587 people.
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes, either they share your birthday, or they do not. The probability of a person sharing your birthday is independent of any other person, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
The parameters are:
x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.There are 365 days in a non-leap year, hence, the probability of each person sharing your birthday is [tex]p = \frac{1}{365}[/tex]
Item a:
This probability is P(X = 0), hence:
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{n,0}.\left(\frac{1}{365}\right)^{0}.\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)^{n} = \left(\frac{364}{365}\right)^{n}[/tex]
Hence, the expression is [tex]\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)^{n}[/tex]
Item b:
The probability that at least one person shares your birthday is:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
We want that:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) \geq 0.8[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]1 - P(X = 0) \geq 0.8[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) \leq 0.2[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)^{n} \leq 0.2[/tex]
[tex]n\log{\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)} \leq \log{0.2}[/tex]
[tex]n \geq \frac{\log{0.2}}{\log{\left(\frac{364}{365}\right)}}[/tex]
[tex]n \geq 586.6[/tex]
Rounding up: You need to select at least 587 people.

You are designing a new, larger coral reef habitat that will stun visitors with its size and vibrant colors. The tank requires special glass to protect this delicate environment. The glass costs $25,000 + a 10% engineering fee + a 5% shipping fee. The shipping fee is calculated on the cost of the glass plus engineering charges. What is the total cost of the glass, including fees?
Answer:
$28,875
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we would have to find 10% of $25,000
10% of $25,000 = $2,500
Now, we have to add the 2 values together
$25,000 + $2,500 = $27,500
Now, we can find the shipping fee, since it includes the engineering fee
5% of $27,500 = $1,375
Now, we can add the shipping fee to find the total
$27,500 + $1,375 = $28,875

Write the equation for the function graphed below
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
looks to be a parabola, so use vertex mode (h, k) = (-1, 2)
y = a(x - h)² + k
y = a(x + 1)² + 2
another point on the curve seems to be (1, 6)
6 = a(1 + 1)² + 2
1 = a
y = (x + 1)² + 2
or expand for standard form y = ax² + bx + c
y = (x² + 2x + 1) + 2
y = x² + 2x + 3
most of the mathematical symbols were not invented until 16th century, before that how equations were written?
Answer:
During the 16th and early 17th Century, the equals, multiplication, division, radical (root), decimal and inequality symbols were gradually introduced and standardized. ... In the Renaissance Italy of the early 16th Century, Bologna University in particular was famed for its intense public mathematics
Prior to the invention of the Mathematical Symbols, mathematical equations were written in words.
For example, Y + 10 = 4.5 would be written as
The thing plus ten equal to eight.
It is true that MOST, that is, the majority of the mathematical symbols we have today were invented in the 16th century. Examples of such symbols are:

Answer: Choice A[tex]f(n) = 59,000\left(1.08^{n-1}\right)[/tex]
---------------------------
Explanation:
The right hand side for choice A is in the form [tex]a(r)^{n-1}[/tex] which is the nth term of a geometric sequence.
a = first term = 59,000 = starting salaryr = common ratio = 1.08 = tells us how the salary increases year to yearThe 1.08 represents an increase of 8% because,
1.08 = 1 + 0.08 = 100% + 8% = 108%

Problem 2
Answer: Choice C[tex]\frac{(y-60)^2}{144} + \frac{x^2}{100} = 1[/tex]
---------------------------
Explanation:
The ellipse is 20 inches wide, which cuts in half to 10 inches. This is the corresponding value plugged into the denominator of the 'x' fraction, as x deals with the horizontal component. So we'll have a^2 = 10^2 = 100 in the denominator under the x term. Only choice C has this, so this is the answer we go for. For the vertical component, we cut 24 in half to get 12, then square it to get 144, which explains the denominator for the y term.
=======================================================
Problem 3
Answer: Choice C30 feet; major axis
---------------------------
Explanation:
Pick the larger denominator 225. Apply the square root to get 15. Then double this value to land on 30. This is the length of the major axis which is the longer axis through the center of the ellipse. The major axis also passes through both foci.
Let's say points P and Q are any two random points on the ellipse. The longest segment PQ can get is 30 feet.

Answer:
1) 7/12, 2) 7/24
Step-by-step explanation:
Just plug in the values of c and d.
1) given: c = -1 1/4, d = -1
1/3 * (-1 1/4) - (-1)^3 = -5/12 + 12/12 = 7/12
(-1^3 is -1 (there's a positive in front as well so the negatives cancel out and it's just 1) and then convert everything to a common denominator (which is 12). 1/3 times -1 1/4 becomes -5/12 when you multiple straight across).
2) given: c = 4 1/4, d = 1 1/2
1/3 * (4 1/4 - (1 1/2)^3) = 1/3 * (17/4 - 27/8) = 1/3 * (34/8 - 27/8) = 1/3 * 7/8 = 7/24
(use pemdas/order of operations and solve the exponent first, then the parentheses. 1 1/2^3 is 27/8, and 4 1/4 is 34/8. when you subtract you get 7/8, then you can multiply straight across with 1/3 and you get 7/24.)
find the inverse of f(x)=x^2-3x+2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\sqrt{x+\frac{1}{4} }[/tex] and y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\sqrt{x+\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x² - 3x + 2
y = x² - 3x + 2
solve for x as a function of y
y - 2 = x² - 3x
complete the square by adding the square of half the x¹ coefficient to each side of the equation.
y - 2 + (-1.5)² = x² - 3x + (-1.5)²
y + 0.25 = (x - 1.5)²
[tex]\sqrt{y + 0.25}[/tex] = x - 1.5
x = 1.5 ± [tex]\sqrt{y + 0.25}[/tex]
now swap the x and y variables and revert to function notation
f(x) = 1.5 ± [tex]\sqrt{x + 0.25}[/tex] domain is x ≥ -0.25
each input will have two outputs except where f(-0.25) = 1.5

What number must each side of the equation 3/5x= 12 be multipled by to produce the equivalent equation x = 20?
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find out what the product would be if you multiply 20 with the fraction:
(3 * 20)/5 = 60/5 = 12
12 = 12 ∴ (3/5)(20) = 12
As 20 is your answer, you would need to only multiply 1 to obtain the correct balance for the equation.
