The probability that at least 8 patients show improvement is; 0.94

<h3>How to use Binomial Probability Distribution?</h3>

The formula for Binomial Probability Distribution is;

P(X = r) = nCr * p^(r) * (1 - p)^(n - r)

where;

n = number of trials

r = number of specific events you wish to obtain

p is  probability of success

From the question, we have;

n = 12

r = 8

p = 81% = 0.81

The probability that at least 8 patients show improvement is expressed as;

P(X ≥ 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)

Using online binomial probability calculator gives us;

P(X ≥ 8) = 0.11954 + 0.22649 + 0.28967 + 0.22453 + 0.07977

P(X ≥ 8) = 0.94

A surveyor starts at the southeast corner of a lot and
elena-s [515]

Find the difference vertically( North and South) and the difference horizontally ( East and West)

Then use  the Pythagorean Theorem.

600 North - 200 South = 400 m

400 West - 100 East = 300 m

Now using the Pythagorean Theorem;

400^2 + 300^2 = total displacement^2

Total displacement^2 = 160,000 + 90,000

Total displacement^2 = 250,000

Total displacement = √250,000

Total displacement = 500 m

ElenaW [278]
9.75 x 7.2 = 70.2
Swimming Pool Area: 70.2
The Park Area: 70.2 x 1.5 = 105.3
Total Area of both Swimming Pool & Park area: 70.2 + 105.3 = 175.5
Final Answer: 175.5
