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

Anna is reading a 300-page book. She can read a page in two minutes. If she has finished reading 75 percent of the pages, how ma
Daniel [21]

Answer:

150 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If Anna read 75% of her 300-page book, then she has already read:

300 × 75%

= 300×0.75

= 225

225 pages.

If Anna has already read 225 pages, then she has:

300 - 225 = 75

75 pages left still to read.

If Anna reads 2 minutes per page, then she has

75 × 2 = 150 minutes.

She has 150 minutes of reading left to finish her book.

By the way, it's weird to say you have 150 minutes of something to do. In real life 150 minutes = 2 1/2 hours. jfyi. Have a great day!

What is the y intercept of a line that passes through (1,-7) and (5,-25). How do I find it.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y- intercept = - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 25)

m = \frac{-25+7}{5-1} = \frac{-18}{4} = - 4.5 , then

y = - 4.5x + c

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the equation

Using (1, - 7), then

- 7 = - 4.5 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 4.5 = - 2.5

y- intercept c = - 2.5
