he following contingency table details the sex and age distribution of the patients currently registered at a family physician's medical practice. If the doctor sees 17 patients per day, use the binomial formula and the information contained in the table to answer the question: SEX AGE Under 20 20-39 40-59 60-79 80 or over TOTAL Male 5.6% 12.8% 18.4% 14.4% 3.6% 54.8% Female 2.8% 9.6% 13.2% 10.4% 9.2% 45.2% TOTAL 8.4% 22.4% 31.6% 24.8% 12.8% 100.0% if the doctor sees 6 male patients in a day, what is the probability that at most half of them are aged under 39?

Technetium-99m is used as a radioactive tracer for certain medical tests. It has a half-life of 1 day. Consider the function TT where T(d)T(d) =100(2)−d=100(2)−d is the percent of Technetium-99m remaining dd days after the test. Which expression represents the number of days until only 5% remains?
