Suppose the student guesses the answers, we shall consider this a binomial probability problem of success. This implies that getting a question right is p=1/5.
The number of questions is n=20 questions.
The mean of binomial distribution is 
mean=n*p= 20*1/5=4

b] The standard deviation of a binomial distribution is given by:
σ=√(n*p*(1-p))
=√(20*0.2*0.8)
=1.79~1.8

Answer:
μ=4 ; σ=1.8

Solve the following equation <br><br> 1/x-1+1/x+2=3
disa [49]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 3

-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 1 + 2/x:

1 + 2/x = 3

Bring 1 + 2/x together using the common denominator x:

(x + 2)/x = 3

Multiply both sides by x:

x + 2 = 3 x

Subtract 3 x + 2 from both sides:

-2 x = -2

Divide both sides by -2:

Answer:  x = 1
