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.

(1 point) If p(x) and (x) are arbitrary polynomials of degree at most 2, then the mapping =p(-1)q(-1) + p(070) +p(3)q(3) defines
Ainat [17]

If p(x) and q(x) are arbitrary polynomials of degree at most 2 then

||p||||q|| = 26(\sqrt{640}) and angle between p(x) and q(x) is 0.233.

Given that

<p,q> = p(-1)q(-1) + p(0) q(0) + p(3)q(3)

and p(x) = 2x²+ 6 , q(x)= 4x²-4x

then the values of p and q at x = -1,0,3 are given as;

x = -1,

p(-1) = 2(-1)² + 6 = 8   ,    q(-1) = 4(-1)² - 4(-1) = 8

x = 0,

p(0) = 2(0)² + 6 = 6   ,    q(0) = 4(0)² - 4(0) = 0

x = 3,

p(3) = 2(3)² + 6 = 24  ,  q(3) = 4(3)²- 4(3) = 24.

<p,q> = p(-1)q(-1) + p(0)q(0) + p(3)q(3)

         = (8)(8) + (6)(0) + 24(24)

         = 64 + 0 + 576

<p,q> = 640

Now we have to find ||p|| ||q||, for this we'll find ||p|| and ||q||

||p|| = \sqrt{ < p,p > }

     = \sqrt{8(8) + 6(6) + 24(24)}

     = \sqrt{676}

||p|| = 26

and

||q|| = \sqrt{ < q,q > }

      =\sqrt{8(8) + 0(0) + 24(24)}

||q||  =\sqrt{640}

∴||p||||q|| = 26(\sqrt{640\\)

Now we have to find angle between p(x) and q(x),

∴ α = cos⁻¹\frac{ < p,q > }{||p||||q||}

      = cos ⁻¹ \frac{640}{26(\sqrt{640}) }

      = cos ⁻¹ \frac{4\sqrt{10} }{13}

  α  = 13.34°

In radian

α = 0.233.

Elaine is 8 years younger than her brother Tyler. The sum of their ages is 34. Define a variable and then write and solve an equ
Damm [24]

Answer: Elaine=13 years old Tyler=21 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Elaine's age, so her brother Tyler's age = x+8

 Elaine+Tyler=34

          x+(x+8)=34

             2x+8=34

                 2x=26

                   x=13

Elaine=13 years old

Tyler=21 years old

Find the smallest number which when divided by 12,15,18&amp;27 leaves as remainder 8,11,14,23 respectively.
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{  \boxed{ \sf{536}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Here, 12 - 8 = 4

15 - 11 = 4

18 - 14 = 4

27 - 23 = 4

Thus, every divisor is greater than its remainder by 4. So, the required smallest number is the difference of the L.C.M of the given number and 4

<u>Finding </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>L.C</u><u>.</u><u>M</u>

First of find the prime factors of each numbers

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

15 = 3 × 5

18 = 3 × 3 × 3

27 = 3 × 3 × 3

Take out the common prime factors : 3 , 3 and 3

Also take out the other remaining prime factors : 2 , 2 and 5

Now, Multiply those all prime factors and obtain L.C.M

L.C.M = Common factors × Remaining factors

= 3 × 3 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 5

= 540

L.C.M of 12 , 15 , 18 and 27 = 540

So, The required smallest number = 540 - 4

= 536

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
