To think: During one year, about 163 million adults over 18 years old in the United States spent
a total of about 93 billion hours online at home. On average, how many hours per day
did each adult spend online at home?

Answer to Problem 54PPE
The required answer is: an adult spends 1.56 hours per day online
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given information: 163 million adults over 18 years spent 93 billion hours online at home
Calculation:
163 million adults
(Scientific notation)
93 billion hours
(Scientific notation)
(Subtract exponents when dividing powers with the same base)
(Simplify)
An adult spends 570.55 hours online in a year
Average hours spent in a day
(Divide by days in a year which is 365 days)
(Simplify)
Therefore on average, an adult spends 1.56 hours per day online at home.

They are playing a game where they randomly pick a card out of the hat four times, with replacement. Amy thinks that the probability of getting exactly two aces in four picks is equal to the probability of not getting exactly two aces in four picks. Samiha disagrees. She thinks that the probability of not getting exactly two aces is greater. The sample space of possible outcomes is listed below. A represents an ace, and K represents a king.
