Answer:
c=42
s=30
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this
problem, we use the binomial distribution formula for probability:
P (x) = [n!
/ (n-x)! x!] p^x q^(n-x)
Where,
n = the
total number of test questions = 10
<span>x = the
total number of test questions to pass = >6</span>
p =
probability of success = 0.5
q =
probability of failure = 0.5
Given the
formula, let us calculate for the probabilities that the student will get at
least 6 correct questions by guessing.
P (6) = [10!
/ (4)! 6!] (0.5)^6 0.5^(4) = 0.205078
P (7) = [10!
/ (3)! 7!] (0.5)^7 0.5^(3) = 0.117188
P (8) = [10!
/ (2)! 8!] (0.5)^8 0.5^(2) = 0.043945
P (9) = [10!
/ (1)! 9!] (0.5)^9 0.5^(1) = 0.009766
P (10) = [10!
/ (0)! 10!] (0.5)^10 0.5^(0) = 0.000977
Total
Probability = 0.376953 = 0.38 = 38%
<span>There is a
38% chance the student will pass.</span>
It will be a negative.
for an example: -20 for x would mqke 2x + 1 into -39 and 8x + 5 into -155. that's 116 apart, so maybe -2(8) + 5 = -11
-2(2) + 1 = -3
but that's only 8 apart, so it'd be higher.
-4(2) + 1 = -7
-4(8) + 5 = -27
BOOM
Tadaaaa,
You probably thought positive, but sometimes it's negative, you know what I mean?
Answer:
<em>2 7/24</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>First we have to add the gallons of two cow of each owner:</em>
<em>Hank's cows: </em><em>4 3/4 + 4 1/8</em>
<em>Add the whole numbers:</em>
<em>4 + 4 = 8</em>
<em>Now for 3/4 and 1/8 </em>
<em>Find common</em>
<em>6/8 + 1/8</em>
<em>= 7/8</em>
<em>Put together :</em>
<em>8 7/8</em>
<em>Debra's cows: </em><em>5 1/2 + 5 2/3</em>
<em>Add the whole number</em>
<em>5 + 5 = 10</em>
<em>Now for 1/2 and 2/3</em>
<em>3/6 + 4/6</em>
<em>1 1/6</em>
<em>10 + 1 1/6 </em>
<em>= 11 1/6</em>
<u><em>Since now we know that:</em></u>
<u><em>Hank - </em></u><em>8 7/8</em>
<u><em>Debra - </em></u><em>11 1/6</em>
<em>we can solve the question:</em>
<em>How many more gallons of milk did Debra's two cows produce on that compared to Hank's two cows?</em>
<em>Solution:</em>
<em>11 1/6 - 8 7/8</em>
<em>Subtract whole number</em>
<em>11 - 8 = 3</em>
<em>Now for 1/6 and 7/8</em>
<em>4/24 - 21/24</em>
<em>4-21/24</em>
<em>-17/24</em>
<em>2 7/24</em>
