If the probabilities that an automobile mechanic will service 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 or more cars on any given workday are, respectively, 0.12, 0.19, 0.28, 0.24, 0.10, and 0.07, what is the probability that he will service at least 5 cars on his next day at work?

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the probability that the mechanic will service  or more cars.

It's a simpler one given that we have the probabilities of servicing 4 or less cars.

P(at least 5 cars) is given by subtracting the probabilities of servicing both 3 and 4 cars.

b. an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the figure of two circles having a triangle inside.

now, we know that,

"when a figure is lying inside an another figure, then the outside figure is known as circumscribed figure and the figure lying inside is referred to as the inscribed figure".

as we see that, the circles are containing the triangle completely.

thus, the circles are the circumscribed figures and the triangle is the inscribed figure.

hence, we get, 'an equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle'.

step-by-step explanation:

first, eliminate the parenthesis:
