Given:
The probability that a baby that is born is a boy is 0.52.
The probability that a baby that is born is a girl is 0.48.
To find:
The probability that the family has 0, 1, or 2 girls.

Using the binomial distribution,
[tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]Here,
[tex]\begin{gathered} n=2 \\ P(Birth\text{ of girls\rparen=}p=0.48 \\ P(B\imaginaryI rth\text{ of boys\rparen=}1-p=0.52 \end{gathered}[/tex]The probability that the family gets 0 girl child is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(X=2)=^2C_2(0.48)^2(0.52)^0 \\ =0.2304 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the probability that the family has 0, 1, or 2 girls is,

Mary Bought her car for $20,000. After 5 years she decided to sell her car for a 25% increase invalue. What is the price that Mary decided to sell her car for?
Answers
Original Car price = $20,000
Price increase after 5 years = 25%
To calculate the price after 5 years, first multiply the original price (20,000) by the percentage increase in decimal form ( divided by 100) to obtain the increase amount:
20,000 x (25/100) = 20,000 x 0.25 = $5000
Finally, add the increase amount to the original price:
20,000+5,000 = $25,000

Answers
The IQR of the given series 2.9, 5.7, 10.0, 13.2, 21.1 is 15.4
In the given question, a five number summary is given as follows
2.9, 5.7, 10.0, 13.2, 21.1
We need to find the IQR
So, first we'll find the median of the given series
The middle value in a sorted, ascending or descending list of numbers is known as the median, and it has the potential to describe a data collection more accurately than the average does.
So, the given series is already in ascending order. And the middle value is 10.0. So the median is 10.0
Now to find the IQR the given formula will be used,
IQR = Q3 - Q1
Where Q3 is the last term in lower series and Q1 is the last term in upper series
Lower series - 2.9, 5.7
Upper series - 3.2, 21.1
Q3 = 5.7 , Q1 = 21.1
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 21.1 - 5.7 = 15.4 ( IQR is always positive)
Hence, the IQR of the given series 2.9, 5.7, 10.0, 13.2, 21.1 is 15.4

From the question, we are told that 3/4 cup of bleach is needed per 1 gallon of water.
Thus:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\text{ gallon of water requires }\frac{3}{4}\text{ cup of bleach} \\ \implies2.5\text{ gallons will require }\frac{3}{4}\times2.5\text{ cups of bleach} \\ \frac{3}{4}\times2.5=1\frac{7}{8}\text{ cups} \end{gathered}[/tex]Next, we represent the result in the form of the given options:
Using the standard rate of conversion: 1 cup = 8 fl. oz
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\text{ cup}=8\text{ fl.oz} \\ \implies1\frac{7}{8}\text{ cups}=8\times1\frac{7}{8}floz=8\times\frac{15}{8}=15fl.oz \end{gathered}[/tex]The volume of bleach added to 2.5 gallons of water is 15 fl. oz.
Antonio has a balance of $4273.56 on a credit card with an annual percentage rate of 21.1%. He decides to not make any additional purchases with his card until he has paid off the balance. a) Many credit cards require a minimum monthly payment of 2% of the balance. What is Antonio's minimum payment on the balance of $4273.56? b) Find the amount of interest charged this month
Answers
a) To calculate the minimum payment of the balance, you calculate the 2% of $4273.56. You proceed as follow:
(2/100)(4273.56) = 85.47
Hence, the mimum payment of the balance is $85.47
b) You calculate the amount of interest charged this month as follow:
convert the annual percentage rate to decimal form:
21.1/100 = 0.211
divide the previous result by 12 to get the monthly interest rate:
0.2111/12 = 0.0175
multiply the previoues result by the balance:
0.0175 x 4273.56 = 75.143 ≈ 75.14
convert the monthly rate to a percentage:
0.0175 x 100 = 1.75%
Hence, the amount of interest was $75.14, which corresponds to a 1.75%
