0.21094 is the probability that the surgery is successful on exactly 3 patients.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true.

According to the given question,

Let Y = The number of patients who respond yes: Y - Bin (n,p)

Given , n = 4 , p = 0.75 ,  q = 1 - p =  0.25

P (Y = 3) = \left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\3\\\end{array}\right)  (0.75)^{2}(0.25)^{4-3}  \\             =  0.21094\\\\

The probability that the surgery is successful on exactly 3 patients is 0.21094

User: Translate the following words to algebra symbols, using "n" as the variable. Seven is two less than twice a number.
muminat
7 = 2n - 2

n= a number so twice a number is 2n and 7 is 2 less than twice this number.

Find the greatest common factor of the following monomials 26n5 12n2
Sidana [21]

The greatest common factor is 2n^{2}


We first have to look for the largest number that goes into both equations. The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12. None of 3, 4, 6, or 12 go into 26 evenly. So 2 is the largest number you can take out.


With the variables, we take out as many as the lowest number will let us. Since the smallest number of n's is 2 in the second term, we take that many.

Alex scored 98,72, and 87 on his first three math test. What must he score on the next test to have an average of at least 86 (P
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{At least an } 87\%}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find what score Alex must earn to have an average of 86 on all his tests, we need to first note what the formula to find the average of a data set is.

\displaystyle \frac{x_1+x_2+...x_n}{n}

What the formula means is that we have to add up all the values then divide by the total number of values.

Let's represent our unknown number as x.

\displaystyle \frac{98+72+87+x}{4} \geq 86 (since we want AT LEAST an 86).

Let's solve this inequality for x.

  • \frac{98+72+87+x}{4} \cdot 4 \geq 86 \cdot 4
  • 98+72+87+x \geq 344
  • 257 + x \geq 344
  • 257 + x  - 257 \geq 344 - 257
  • x \geq 87

So, Alex must score at least an 87% on his next quiz to have an average of 86%.

Hope this helped!
