\n" ); document.write( "a) Find the empirical probability that a tulip bulb of this type will bloom
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: 62/74 = 31/37
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) How many of the bulbs should she plant next fall if she would like at least 95 to bloom?
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: Let \"x\" be the number she should plant.
\n" ); document.write( "(31/37)x = 95
\n" ); document.write( "x = 95*(37/31)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 113.3
\n" ); document.write( "She should plant 114 bulbs
\n" ); document.write( "============================
