Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0108 = 1.08% probability of the coin landing tails up at least nine times.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

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

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

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • The coin is fair, hence p = 0.5.
  • The coin is tossed 10 times, hence n = 10.

The probability that is lands tails up at least nine times is given by:

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)

In which:

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

P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.0098

P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.001

Hence:

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0098 + 0.001 = 0.0108

0.0108 = 1.08% probability of the coin landing tails up at least nine times.

Select all the expressions that are equivalent to -36x+54y−90.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

b) -18(2x -3y + 5)

d) 18(-2x + 3y - 5)

e) -2(18x - 27y + 45)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) -9( 4x - 6y - 10) = -36x + 54y + 90 not equal

b) -18(2x - 3y + 5) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

c) -6(6x + 9y - 15) = -36x - 54y + 90 not equal

d) 18(-2x + 3y - 5) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

e) -2(18x - 27y + 45) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

f) 2(-18x + 54y - 90) = -36x + 108y - 180 not equal
