In Leakwater township, there are two plumbers. On a particular day three Leakwater residents call village plumbers independently
Marianna [84]

Answer:

25% probability that all three residents will choose the same plumbe

Step-by-step explanation:

For each resident, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they choose the first plumbe, or they choose the second. The plumbers are chosen independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

Each resident randomly chooses one of the two plumbers.

This means that p = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

Three residents:

This means that n = 3

What is the probability that all three residents will choose the same plumb

This is P(X = 0)(all choose the second pumble) or P(X = 3)(all choose the first pumble). So

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

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.125

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.125

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 3) = 2*0.125 = 0.25

25% probability that all three residents will choose the same plumbe

HELP THIS is due in 30 mins Renaldo described the translation of the graph of f(x) = x2 related to g(x) = (x + 2)2 - 6 as 2 unit
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that we need to use the equation y=a(x-h)^2+k. This means that h=-2 instead of 2 otherwise it would've been (x-2)^2-6. So Renaldo made the mistake of identifying h as 2 instead of -2. The second mistake Renaldo made is that since k=-6, there should be a vertical shift of 6 units down not 2.
