Answer:

1.66479*10^(-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

to get 70% correct question out of 20 the student have correct 14 questions correct.

probability of getting answer correct p= 1/5=0.2

probability of getting answer wrong q= 4/5=0.8

its case of binomial distribution where

n= 20, r= 14 , p= 0.2 and q= 0.8

therefore

[tex]_{20}^{14}\textrm{C}\times 0.2^{14}\times0.8^{6}[\tex]

solving we get

1.66479*10^(-6)

The probability would be 0.000017.

70% of the 20 questions is 14 questions correct.  Using a binomial distribution for this, we have:

_{20}C_{14}(0.2)^{14}\times (1-0.2)^{20-14}
\\
\\ \frac{20!}{14!6!}\times (0.2)^{14} \times (0.8)^6
\\
\\ \approx 0.000017

Answer:        4x² -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, evaluate the exponent you'll get, 3^{0}+ 4x² -5 then evaluate to get, 1+ 4x² -5. Next, subtract the numbers, 1 + 4x² -5 then to get, -4 +4x². Lastly, rearrange the terms,  -4 +4x² turns into, 4x² -4!
