The probability that it rains at most 2 days is 0.00005995233 and the variance is 0.516

<h3>The probability that it rains at most 2 days</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Number of days, n = 7
  • Probability that it rains, p = 95%
  • Number of days it rains, x = 2 (at most)

The probability that it rains at most 2 days is represented as:

P(x ≤ 2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2)

Each probability is calculated as:

P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

So, we have:

P(0) = ^7C_0 * (92\%)^0 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 0} = 0.00000002097

P(1) = ^7C_1 * (92\%)^1 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 1} = 0.00000168821

P(2) = ^7C_2 * (92\%)^2 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 2} = 0.00005824315

So, we have:

P(x ≤ 2) =0.00000002097 + 0.00000168821 + 0.00005824315

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.00005995233

Hence, the probability that it rains at most 2 days is 0.00005995233

<h3>The mean</h3>

This is calculated as:

Mean = np

So, we have:

Mean = 7 * 92%

Evaluate

Mean = 6.44

Hence, the mean is 6.44

<h3>The standard deviation</h3>

This is calculated as:

σ = √np(1 - p)

So, we have:

σ = √7 * 92%(1 - 92%)

Evaluate

σ = 0.718

Hence, the standard deviation is 0.718

<h3>The variance</h3>

We have:

σ = 0.718

Square both sides

σ² = 0.718²

Evaluate

σ² = 0.516

This represents the variance

Hence, the variance is 0.516

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

A. I only

I. y>2x

Step-by-step explanation:

I. y>2x

He sold x bicycles last week and y bicycles this week,  this week, he earned more than twice as much as he did last week. Therefore more than twice means greater than 2 x or

y>2x

II. y>x This is not true because y could be greater than x and less than twice of x (2x)

III. y>3 This is also not true because the least he would be earning would be $ 20 and he could get earn greater than 3 and less than $ 20 which would again be contradictory to the given statement
