Answer:she would require 3 cans of white paint to mix 6 cans of blue paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the color she wants, she must add 1/4 cans of white paint to every 1/2 cans of blue paint. This means that the number of cans of white paint that she must add to 1 cup of blue paint would be 1/2.

Therefore, the number of cans of white paint that would be used to mix 6 cans of blue paint would be

6 × 1/2 = 3

Suppose N has a geometric distribution with parameter p. Derive a closed-form expression for E(N | N <= k), k = 1,2,... Check
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

P(X= k) = (1-p)^k-1.p

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of trials is

N < = k, the geometric distribution gives the probability that there are k-1 trials that result in failure(F) before the success(S) at the kth trials.

Given p = success,

1 - p = failure

Hence the distribution is described as: Pr ( FFFF.....FS)

Pr(X= k) = (1-p)(1-p)(1-p)....(1-p)p

Pr((X=k) = (1 - p)^ (k-1) .p

Since N<=k

Pr (X =k) = p(1-p)^k-1, k= 1,2,...k

0, elsewhere

If the probability is defined for Y, the number of failure before a success

Pr (Y= k) = p(1-p)^y......k= 0,1,2,3

0, elsewhere.

Given p= 0.2, k= 3,

P(X= 3) =( 0.2) × (1 - 0.2)²

P(X=3) = 0.128

solo el 20% de los empleados de la población civil que está en una base militar restringida porta su identificación personal. Si
prisoha [69]

Usando la distribución binomial, hay una probabilidad de 0.8926 = 89.26% de que el guardia de seguridad encuentre al menos uno en la base militar restringida.

<h3>¿Qué es la distribución binomial?</h3>

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Los parámetros son:

  • n es el número de ensayos.
  • p es la probabilidad de éxito en un ensayo
  • x es el número de éxitos

En este problema, hay que:

  • 20% de los empleados de la población civil que está en una base militar restringida porta su identificación personal, o sea p = 0.2.
  • Llegan 10 empleados, o sea, n = 10.

La probabilidad de que el guardia de seguridad encuentre al menos uno en la base militar restringida es dada por:

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)

En que:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.1074

Por eso:

P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.1074 = 0.8926

Hay una probabilidad de 0.8926 = 89.26% de que el guardia de seguridad encuentre al menos uno en la base militar restringida.

A string quartet finds that when they play for donations they earn between $25 and $40 per hour. If they play for 3 hours and di
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Option d.$18 to $30

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The quartet  earn between $25 and $40 per hour.

so

If they play for 3 hours

then

($25*3)=$75

($40*3)=$120

the quartet will earn between  $75 and $120

Divide the money equally between the four members

$75/4=$18.75

$120/4=$30

therefore

Each member can make between $18.75 and $30

Check the consistency of 2x-3y=7 and x-2y+1=0
Furkat [3]

Answer:

x = 17, y = 9

or as an ordered pair, (17, 9).

The equations are consistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y = 7

x - 2y  = -1        Multiply this equation by -2:

-2x + 4y = 2     Add this to the first equation:

y = 9.

Plug y = 9 into the second equation:

x - 2*9 = -1

x = -1 + 18 = 17.

A pair of shoes is in a ‘35% off’ sale. The recommended retail price (RRP) is £86. How much do the shoes cost in the sale?
9966 [12]

Answer:

Without tax the shoes would cost £55.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this you take the £86 and multiply it by 0.65 because with the 35% sale you are paying for 65% of the item. You get this number by subtracting 35 from 100 and convert it into a decimal.
