Answer:

He is 2 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

She is 22, in 8 years she will be 30. 30 is 3×10. At that time, her brother will be 10; that is 8 years from now. So now, the little brother is 10-8 = 2 years old.

If you must show algebra work:

x = brother's age now.

x+8=brother's age in 8 years.

YingYu's age in 8 years = 3 × brother's age in 8 years

22+8 = 3(x+8)

30 = 3x +24

6 = 3x

2 = x

Philip ran out of time while taking a multiple-choice test and plans to guess the last 4 questions. Each question has 5 possible
White raven [17]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.4096 = 40.96% probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions.

<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.

Considering that there are 4 questions, and each has 5 choices, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 4, p = 1/5 = 0.2.

The probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions is P(X = 1), hence:

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

P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.4096

0.4096 = 40.96% probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions.
