forsale [732]

<h3>The probability of student passing the quiz with at least 50% of the questions correct is 0.05457.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of T/F question = 10

The minimum answers needed correctly answered = 8

So, student needs to answer at least 8 questions correctly.

Here, the possibility of answering a question correctly = $(\frac{1}{2})$ = p = 0.5

Also, the possibility of answering a question wrong = $(\frac{1}{2})$ = q = 0.5

Now, to pass he needs to answer 8 or more ( 8 , 9 or 10) answers correctly.

P(answering 8 correct answer) = $^{10}C_8(p)^8(q)^2 = ^{10}C_8(0.5)^8(0.5)^2 = 0.0439$

P(answering 9 correct answer) = $^{10}C_9(p)^9(q)^1 = ^{10}C_9(0.5)^9(0.5)^1 = 0.0097$

P(answering 10 correct answer) = $^{10}C_{10}(p)^{10}(q)^0 = ^{10}C_{10}(0.5)^{10}(0.5)^0 = 0.00097$

So, the total Probability = P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

= (0.0439) + (0.0097) + (0.00097)

= 0.05457

Hence, the probability that the student passes the quiz with at least 8 of the questions correct is 0.05457.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer is "294.2075".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\hat{p} = 0.5 \\\\1 - \hat{p} = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5\\\\E = 4\% = 0.04\\\\$

At $83\%$ confidence level the z is ,

$\alpha = 1 - 83\% = 1 - 0.83 = 0.17\\\\\frac{\alpha}{2} = \frac{0.17}{2} = 0.085\\\\Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = Z_{0.085} = 1.3722\\\\n = (\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}}{E})^2 \times \hat{p} \times (1 - \hat{p})\\\\$

$= (\frac{1.3722}{0.04})^2 \times 0.5 \times 0.5\\\\= (34.305)^2 \times 0.5 \times 0.5\\\\= 1,176.83 \times 0.5 \times 0.5\\\\= 1,176.83 \times 0.25\\\\=294.2075$

Reflection over the y-axis followed by a horizontal translation 1 unit left on the equation f(x)=x

aleksley [76]

Answer:

f(x) = -x -4 or f(x) = (-x)-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the graph of g be a translation of 4 units down followed by a reflection in the y-axis of the graph of f(x)=x. Write a rule for g.

Transformations can be found using this general formula: f(x) = a(bx-h)+k

For this question, we want a translation down as well as a reflection.

The two values we need to use are for k, a vertical translation, and b, a reflection over the y-axis.

Since we are translating down 4 units, k = -4

Since we are reflecting across the y-axis, b = -1

So, f(x)=(-x)-4

f(x)= -x -4
