Rearrange the formula P = 2(l + b) for b.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it contains a golden sheet of paper, or it does not. The probability of a container containing a golden sheet of paper is independent of other containers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper containers.

This means that $p = 0.3$

14 of these containers of paper.

This means that $n = 14$

What is the probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper?

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{14} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{13} = 0.0407$

$P(X = 2) = C_{14,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.1134$

$P(X = 3) = C_{14,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.1943$

$P(X = 4) = C_{14,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.2290$

$P(X = 5) = C_{14,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{9} = 0.1963$

$P(X = 6) = C_{14,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.1262$

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0068 + 0.0407 + 0.1134 + 0.1943 + 0.2290 + 0.1963 + 0.1262 = 0.9067$

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

I NEED THIS RN PLEASE

Lerok [7]

Answer:

The answer is C, 3 to 2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 12 divided by 4 is 3 and 8 divided by 4 is 2 so yhe ratio is 3 to 2. Hope it helps.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,1) and has a<br> slope of -3/4

Rashid [163]

Answer:

y = -3/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3/4x + b

1 = (-3/4) × -4 + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

b = -2

y = -3/4x -2

What’s the next three after? <br> 18,36,72,144,..

IgorC [24]

Answer: 288, 576, 1152

Step-by-step explanation: What you do here is that you multiply every number by two. You start by doing 18 times 2, which equals 36. Then you do 36 times 2, which equals 72. You keep on doing this until you get the answers needed.

Hope this helped!! :)
