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

Brittany went grocery shopping , she spent 4/7 of her money on fresh foods. she spent 2/3 of the remainder of her money on froze
pychu [463]

Answer:

$44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount of money be represented by Y

Amount spent on fresh food =

\frac{4}{7}  \times y

Remainder =

y -  \frac{4}{7}y  =  \frac{3}{7} y

Amount spent on frozen foods = two-thirds of remainder = $22

=  \frac{2}{3}  \times  \frac{3}{7} y = \frac{2}{7}  y

\frac{2}{7}  y = 22 \\ y = 22 \times  \frac{7}{2} \\ y = 77

The total amount for grocery shopping is $77

Therefore, Brittany spent $44 on fresh foods

=  \frac{4}{7}  \times 77 \\  = 4 \times 11 \\  = 44

if an alien species ages a year every human month, how old would they be, in human years, by the time they're 2,000 in their spe
DENIUS [597]
Hey there!
If they're 2,000 in their time, then they must have went through 2,000 months given that they aged 1 year/month.
That means we're converting 2,000 months into years.
Because 12 months is a year, we divide 2,000 into groups of 12 (2,000/12)
to get 166 as our closest whole number. 12 times 166 is 1,992, so the remainder is 8 months.
Therefore, the aliens are 166 years and 8 months in human time.
Hope this helps!

Amanda [17]
0.34 + x + 1.11 + 0.17 + 0.43 = 2.63

x + 2.05 = 2.63

x + 2.05 (-2.05) = 2.63 (-2.05)

x = 0.58

0.58 in fell in Day 2
