P(X = 5) will have a probability of 0.101 that less than 5 of them do not require vision correction.

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

Probability is synonymous with possibility. It is concerned with the occurrence of a random event.

Probability can only have a value between 0 and 1. Its simple notion is that something is very likely to occur. It is the proportion of favorable events to the total number of events.

Given data;

The probability that no vision correction is required p = 0.24

No. adults are randomly selected n = 12

We'll introduce a random variable. Out of every six adults, X does not require vision correction. The distribution of X is binomial. The probability required is P ( X = 5 )

From the binomial distribution:

P(X = 5) = 12C₅×(0.24)⁵×(0.77)⁷

P(X = 5) = 792×0.0007962624×0.1604

P(X = 5) = 0.101

Hence, the probability that fewer than 5 of them do not require a vision correction, P(X = 5) will be 0.101.

The circumference of a circle is 5 Pi cm. What is the area of the circle?
Ber [7]

Answer:

6.25 pi cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is

C = 2*pi*r

We know the circumference is 5 pi

5 pi = 2 * pi *r

Divide each side by pi

5 pi/pi = 2 * pi *r/pi

5 = 2r

Divide by 2

5/2 = 2r/2

2.5 = r

We need to find the area of the circle

The area is given by

A = pi * r^2

   = pi * (2/5)^2

    = pi *6.25

    = 6.25 pi cm^2

Myra is playing a board game. After 12 turns, Myra has landed on a blue space 3 times.
maks197457 [2]

In 12 turns, she lands in a blue space 3 times.

12/3 =4

In 100 turns, it is expected that Myra would land on a blue space '100/4' times

100/4= 25

Which sums up to 25 turns
