A person is taking a 13​-question ​multiple-choice test for which each question has three answer​ choices, only one of which is

correct. The person decides on answers by rolling a fair die and marking the first answer choice if the die shows 1 or​ 2, the second if it shows 3 or​ 4, and the third if it shows 5 or 6. Find the probability that the person gets fewer than 3 correct answer

The probability of getting fewer than 3 correct answers is 0.1385

<h3>How calculate the probability of getting fewer than 3 correct answers?</h3>

This is a binomial problem with n = 13

Since we are dealing with a binomial probability distribution. We are going to use the binomial distribution formula for determining the probability of x successes:

P(x = r) = nCr . p^r  . q^n-r

total choices = 13 x 3 = 39

p = P(correct answer) = 13/39 =1/3

Given: n = 13, p = 1/3, q = 1- 1/3 = 2/3

Fewer than 3 correct answers mean less than 3 correct answers

P(x<3) = P(x = 0) + P(x=1) + P(x=2)

P(x<3) = (13C0 × (1/3)^0 × (2/3)^13-0) + (13C1 × (1/3)^1 × (2/3)^13-1 + (13C2 × (1/3)^2 × (2/3)^13-2)

         = 0.005138 + 0.0333 + 0.1001

         = 0.1385

Therefore, the probability that the person gets fewer than 3 correct answers is 0.1385

Harrizon [31]

Answer: 214 - 5d

Which of the following real-world scenarios could be represented by the algebraic expression 7.65 - 2p? Select all that apply.

Answers:

1) You buy 2 equally priced party favors, spending from your $7.65 gift card.

4) you give Tim twice the amount of face paint he had from your supply of 7.65 ounces.

You decide to order pizzas for your party. A large pizza is cut into 12 slices. If each pizza is shared evenly among G guests, which expression represents the number of slices that each guest will eat?

Answer: 12/g

(these are the rest of the answers for the rest of the 7 slides of "Writing expression" assignment on e2020

4th: $25 dollars is the constant team so the cost for h hours is 15h and the correct expression is 15h+25 and 15(h+25) would be interpreted as adding 25 hours to the number of hours rented, and then multiplying by 15.

5th: m + 2m - s

6th: No it's not true. Each table began with x/8 balloons. If two pop then you will not be able to distribute it equally among 8 tables. There are x/8 - 2 balloons left. Not all tables will be equal.

7th: n - (1/4)n - 15

8th: 12n/r

9th: (x+3)/5

10th: (3r)/2 is what the second DJ had. 3 times as many songs as 3r and half as many is translated as division to 2 so half as many is translated as multiplication by 1/2. So therefore, the second DJ had (3r)/2 songs.

Answer:

D) y=-1/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

D) y=-1/2x+4

In order to be parallel, it has to have the same slope (-1/2).  Also, if you plug in (-2,5) for x and y, it does pass through those coordinates.
