Probability is 17.5% that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college

According to the statement

we have given that survey of 300 college graduates, 46% reported that they entered a profession closely and

We know that  For each college graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have entered a profession closely related to their college major, or they have not. The probability of a college graduate having entered a profession closely related to their college major is independent of other college graduates, so we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

This is P(X = 3) when n = 8. and the value of p is 0.46 put the value in the binomial formula then the outcome of answer will 17.5%

So, Probability is 17.5% that 3 of them entered a profession closely related to their college

If f(x) = 1/9 x-2, what is f^-1 (x)?
babunello [35]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject

Given

y = \frac{1}{9} x - 2

Multiply through by 9

9y = x - 18 ( add 18 to both sides )

x = 9y + 18

Change y back into terms of x, hence

f^{-1} (x) = 9x + 18
