Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 38% probability that exactly 18 of them say job applicants should follow up within two weeks.

<h3>How to find that a given condition can be modelled by binomial distribution?</h3>

Binomial distributions consists of n independent Bernoulli trials.

Bernoulli trials are those trials that end up randomly either on success (with probability p) or on failures( with probability 1- p = q (say))

The probability that out of n trials, there'd be x successes is given by

P(X =x) = \: ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Binomial probability distribution  

P(X =x) = \: ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The parameters are:

n is the number of trials.

x is the number of successes.

p is the probability of success on a single trial.

In this problem:

62% say job applicants should follow up within two weeks, p = 0.62

25 managers are selected, n = 25

The probability that exactly 18 of them say job applicants should follow up within two weeks is P ( X = 18)

P( X > 18) = 1 -  ( X = 18)

= 1 - 0.62

= 0.38

38 % probability that exactly 18 of them say job applicants should follow up within two weeks.

write the standard form of the equation of the circle with endpoints of a diameter at the points (9,2) and (-7,5)
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(x-1)²+(y-3.5)² = 265/4

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the midpoint (center of the circle)

(9+-7)/2, (2+5)/2

(1, 3.5) = center

then distance formula to find diameter

√(9- -7)²+(2-5)²=√256+9 = √265

The radius is half the diameter = (√265)/2

Formula for circle is (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r², where (h, k) is the center

Now you can plug everything in.

(x-1)²+(y-3.5)² = 265/4

Is a ice cube a polygon? why or why not?
Kipish [7]
A Polygon is a two dimensional figure that can be  drawn on a flat surface.A cube is a three dimensional figure that can be sculpted in three dimensions but can only have projections of it drawn on a flat surface.So a cube is not a polygon.
