The variance of the binomial distribution of the number of households with landline service is 2.

<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>

It is the probability of <u>exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.

The variance of the distribution is given by:

V(X) = np(1 - p)

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 8, p = 0.504.

Hence the variance is given by:

V(X) = 8 x 0.504 x 0.496 = 2.

An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Outcomes are thus triples of "heads" (An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Ou)
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Probability distribution

X    P(X)

0    1/8

1     3/8  

2    3/8

3     1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

When a coin is tossed there are two outcomes head and tail. When three coins are tossed the possible outcomes are

Sample space=S={HTH,THH,TTH,HHH,HTT,THT,TTT,HHT}

The total number of outcomes is n(S)=8. The X be the random variable counting number of tails in each outcome and so X can take values as 0,1,2,3. The probabilities can be computed as P(X)=n(X)/n(S). The probabilities are calculated as under:

X   Outcomes           P(X)

0    HHH                    1/8

1     HHT,THH,HTH    3/8  

2    TTH,HTT,THT     3/8

3    TTT                        1/8

The probability distribution of X is as under:

X    P(X)

0    1/8

1     3/8  

2    3/8

3     1/8

For ΔABC, ∠A = 8x - 10, ∠B = 10x - 40, and ∠C = 3x + 20. If ΔABC undergoes a dilation by a scale factor of 1 2 to create ΔA'B'C'
STALIN [3.7K]
If the triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar, then 
angle A = angle A'
8x-10 = 6x+10
8x-6x = 10+10
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10

So angle A is
angle A = 8x-10
angle A = 8*10-10
angle A = 80-10
angle A = 70
making that the measure of angle A' as well

This is why the answer is choice A

On a final exam, 75 percent of a class had scores that were greater than 70, and 60 percent of the class had scores that were le
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The answer is 35.

35% of the class had scores that were greater than 70 but less than 85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the number of students in the class =100

If 75% of the class scored greater than 70, then, it means 25% (100-75) of the scores were less than or equal to 70

In other words, 25 scores were less than or equal to 70.

If 60% of the class had scores that were less than 85, then, it means 40%(100-60) of the scores were greater than or equal to 85

Therefore, of the 100 scores, 25 scores were LESS THAN OR EQUAL to 70, and 40 scores were GREATER THAN OR EQUAL to 85.

We've now accounted for 65 (25+40) scores, which means the remaining 35 (100-65) scores must be between 70 and 85.

I will mark you brainliest!!!! Which ordered pair is the best approximation of the solution?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute y = 2x + 1 in the second equation

2x + 1 = -7x + 8

Add 7x to both sides

9x + 1 = 8

Subtact 1 from both sides

9x = 7

x = 7/9

Substituing x in the first equation

y = 14/9 + 1

x rounds to 0.8

y rounds to 2.5
