An experiment is broken up into two parts. In the first part of the experiment a penny is tossed in the air. If the coin lands o

n heads, then the coin is flipped a second time. If the coin lands on tails, then a six-sided die is rolled. What is the probability of getting exactly one tail?

There are two chances of getting one tails: if the first toss is heads and the second toss is tails OR if the first toss is tails.
The probability of the first toss to be head AND the second toss to be tails is 1/2 × 1/2, which equals 1/4.
The probability of getting a tails on the first toss is 1/2.

When dealing with probabilities, AND means multiply and OR means add. Therefore, this problem is: (heads AND tails) OR (tails). The probability of a coin landing on heads is 1/2 and the probability of a coin landing on tails is 1/2. Therefore, the equation is (1/2 × 1/2) + (1/2), which is 3/4.

Which of the following is true for the number of trials for a binomial experiment. Explain your answer. The number of trials in
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Four conditions of a binomial experiment:

There should be fixed number of trials

Each trial is independent with respect to the others

The maximum possible outcomes are two

The probability of each outcome remains constant.

Now, observe the provided options:

Option A and B are not possible as they doesn't satisfy the conditions of binomial experiment which is there must be fixed number of trials.

Now observe the option C which state that there must be fixed number of trials, it satisfy the condition of a binomial experiment.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

The function C(x)=−20x+1681 represents the cost to produce x items. What is the least number of items that can be produced so th
Reptile [31]

Answer:

<em>The least number of items to produce is 41</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Average Cost</u>

Given C(x) as the cost function to produce x items. The average cost is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{C(x)}{x}

The cost function is:

C(x) = -20x+1681

And the average cost function is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{-20x+1681}{x}

We are required to find the least number of items that can be produced so the average cost is less or equal to $21.

We set the inequality:

\displaystyle \frac{-20x+1681}{x}\le 21

Multiplying by x:

-20x+1681 \le 21x

Note we multiplied by x and did not flip the inequality sign because its value cannot be negative.

Adding 20x:

1681 \le 21x+20x

1681 \le 41x

Swapping sides and changing the sign:

41x \ge 1681

Dividing by 41:

x\ge 41

The least number of items to produce is 41
