Answer:
a. 11.26 % b. 6.76 %. It appears so since 6.76 % ≠ 15 %
Step-by-step explanation:
a. This is a binomial probability.
Let q = probability of giving out wrong number = 15 % = 0.15
p = probability of not giving out wrong number = 1 - q = 1 - 0.15 = 0.75
For a binomial probability, P(x) = ⁿCₓqˣpⁿ⁻ˣ. With n = 10 and x = 1, the probability of getting a number wrong P(x = 1) = ¹⁰C₁q¹p¹⁰⁻¹
= 10(0.15)(0.75)⁹
= 1.5(0.0751)
= 0.1126
= 11.26 %
b. At most one wrong is P(x ≤ 1) = P(0) + P(1)
= ¹⁰C₀q⁰p¹⁰⁻⁰ + ¹⁰C₁q¹p¹⁰⁻¹
= 1 × 1 × (0.75)¹⁰ + 10(0.15)(0.75)⁹
= 0.0563 + 0.01126
= 0.06756
= 6.756 %
≅ 6.76 %
Since the probability of at most one wrong number i got P(x ≤ 1) = 6.76 % ≠ 15 % the original probability of at most one are not equal, it thus appears that the original probability of 15 % is wrong.
Answer:
48 minutes
Step-by-step explanation: Time taken is distance divided by speed, so 68/85 is 0.8. 0.8 is equal to 4/5. 4/5 of an hour is 48 minutes.
For this case the first thing you should know is the following unit conversion:
1 yard = 3 feet
Applying the conversion we have:
6 * (1/3) = 2 yards
Therefore the number of skeins of yarn is:
N = (36) / (2)
N = 18
Answer:
You need 18 skeins of yarn
Five hundered seventy-one thousand nine hundred and fifty one
Part A: This data does represent a function because no value of x is repeated.
Part B: If x = 6 for the relation f(x) = 7x - 15, then f(x) will equal 27. The function f(x) = 7x - 15 will have the greater value
Part C: If f(x) is equal to 6 then x will equal 3
