Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.4159 = 41.59%.

b) 0.5610 = 56.10%.

c) 0.8549 = 85.49%.

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

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are:

n = 3, p = 0.76.

Item a:

The probability is P(X = 2), hence:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.76)^{2}.(0.24)^{1} = 0.4159

Item b:

The probability is P(X < 3), hence:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)

In which:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.76)^{3}.(0.24)^{0} = 0.4390

Then:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.4390 = 0.5610 = 56.10%.

Item c:

The probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.4159 + 0.4390 = 0.8549

1. D - Since it's random, everyone has an equal chance of being picked

2. B - Since the people are already registered voters it would be easier to get a response from them. Plus, picking ever 10th person makes it random.

3. false - a fair question wouldn't make assumptions about the population

4. B - "Don't you think" causes the answerer to be pushed towards saying yes

hope this helps :)

Answer: y= -5/2x+3
Explanation: by converting the equation into slope-intercept form you can use the slope and y-intercept given in the equation to graph.


Step-by-step:
5x= -2y+6
2y= -5x+6
Y= -5/2x+3
Slope= -5/2x
Y-intercept= 3
