A common discrete distribution is used in statistics, as opposed to a continuous distribution is called a Binomial distribution. The probability that 5 out of a shipment of 30 will be defective is 0.001617.

<h3>What is Binomial distribution?</h3>

A common discrete distribution is used in statistics, as opposed to a continuous distribution is called a Binomial distribution. It is given by the formula,

P(x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ q⁽ⁿ⁻ˣ⁾

Where,

x is the number of successes needed,

n is the number of trials or sample size,

p is the probability of a single success, and

q is the probability of a single failure.

The probability of the bulb being defective is 3%(0.03) and the probability of the bulb not being defective is 97%(0.97).

Now, it is needed to be found that the probability that 5 out of a shipment of 30 will be defective can be written as,

P(x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ q⁽ⁿ⁻ˣ⁾

P(x=5) = ³⁰C₅ (0.03)⁵ (0.97)²⁵

P(x=5) = 0.001617

Hence, the probability that 5 out of a shipment of 30 will be defective is 0.001617.

A cyclist travels at an average speed of 13 mph for 3 hours.<br> How far did she travel in miles?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

39 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cyclist travelled at an average rate of 13 miles per hour for 3 hours and are asked to how far she travelled in miles.

To solve, we need to take into mind that for three hours, the cyclist drove 13 miles per hour.

Meaning that for every hour, 13 miles were driven.

Therefore we need to multiply 13 by 3 to get our answer :

13 miles * 3hrs

39 miles
