blsea [12.9K]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

x < 8

Step-by-step explanation:

All you need to do is solve the inequality for x, by moving 4 to the right side as I have shown below:

x + 4 < 12

x + 4 - 4 < 12 - 4

x < 8

Suppose the number of children in a household has a binomial distribution with parameters n=12n=12 and p=50p=50%. Find the proba
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a) 20.95% probability of a household having 2 or 5 children.

b) 7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

c) 19.37% probability of a household having 8 or more children.

d) 19.37% probability of a household having fewer than 5 children.

e) 92.71% probability of a household having more than 3 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem, we have that:

n = 12, p = 0.5

(a) 2 or 5 children

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

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161

P(X = 5) = C_{12,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.1934

p = P(X = 2) + P(X = 5) = 0.0161 + 0.1934 = 0.2095

20.95% probability of a household having 2 or 5 children.

(b) 3 or fewer children

P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

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

P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0002

P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0029

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161

P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.0537

P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0002 + 0.0029 + 0.0161 + 0.0537 = 0.0729

7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

(c) 8 or more children

P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)

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

P(X = 8) = C_{12,8}.(0.5)^{8}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.1208

P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.0537

P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.0161

P(X = 11) = C_{12,11}.(0.5)^{11}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.0029

P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.5)^{12}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.0002

P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) = 0.1208 + 0.0537 + 0.0161 + 0.0029 + 0.0002 = 0.1937

19.37% probability of a household having 8 or more children.

(d) fewer than 5 children

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

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

P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{12} = 0.0002

P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{11} = 0.0029

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{10} = 0.0161

P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{9} = 0.0537

P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.1208

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0002 + 0.0029 + 0.0161 + 0.0537 + 0.1208 = 0.1937

19.37% probability of a household having fewer than 5 children.

(e) more than 3 children

Either a household has 3 or fewer children, or it has more than 3. The sum of these probabilities is 100%.

From b)

7.29% probability of a household having 3 or fewer children.

p + 7.29 = 100

p = 92.71

92.71% probability of a household having more than 3 children.

Which is equivalent sin^-1 (cos(pi/2))?Give your answer in radians
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Given the expression: \sin^{-1}(\cos(\frac{\pi}{2}))

Let the value of the given expression in radians be \theta

then;

\sin^{-1}(\cos(\frac{\pi}{2})) =\theta

\cos \frac{\pi}{2} = \sin \theta              ......[1]

We know the value of \cos \frac{\pi}{2} = 0

Substitute the given value in [1] we have;

\sin \theta = 0

Since, the value of \sin \theta is 0, therefore, the value of \theta is in the form of:

\theta = n\pi ; where n is the integer.

At n =0, 1 and 2, {Since, n is the integer}

Value of  \theta =0, \pi and 2\pi

therefore, the answer in radians either   0 , \pi or 2\pi

When determining if you have a perfect square trinomial, what must the first and third term be?
cricket20 [7]

The expansion of a perfect square is

(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2

In words, the square of a sum of two terms is the sum of the squares of the two terms (a^2 and b^2), plus twice the product of the two terms (2ab)

So, when determining if you have a perfect square trinomial, you should have two perfect squares. Note that they don't have to be the first and third term, since you can rearrange terms as you prefer.
