Answer:

a) 0.1091

b) 0.9994

c) 0.5886

Step-by-step explanation:

X = the number of fish out of 20 that die after 24 hours

x = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 20

X~ Binomial (n= 20, p =0.20)

P(14 survive) = P(X = 6)

= nC_r p^r q^{n-r}= 20C_6 0.2^6\times0.8^{14}=0.1091

Similarly we can find out

P(at least 10 survive) = P( X <= 10 ) = (Using technology) = 0.9994

P(at most 16 will survive) = P(X <= 16) = (Using technology) = 0.5886

This is the concept of simultaneous equations; We are required to create the equations modelling the above information.
Suppose the number of movie tickets was x and the number of meal tickets was y.
Therefore;
Total number of tickets was:
x+y=22
Total amount earned was:
0.5x+2y=25
The simultaneous equations representing the information is:
x+y=22
0.5x+2y=25
