This is a problem in "binomial probability."  Either the archer hits his target or he does not.  This experiment is performed 5 times (so that n=5), and the probability that the archer will hit the target is 0.7 (so that p=0.7).

We need to find the binomial probability that x=3 when the possible outcomes are {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.

You could use a table of binomial probabilities to evaluate the following:

P(5, 0.7, 3).

Alternatively, you could use a TI-83 or TI-84 calculator and its built-in "binompdf(  " function.

I evaluated binompdf(5,0.7,3) and obtained the result 0.309.

Consider the following region R and the vector field F. a. Compute the​ two-dimensional curl of the vector field. b. Evaluate bo
Shalnov [3]

Looks like we're given

\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y\rangle

which in three dimensions could be expressed as

\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y,0\rangle

and this has curl

\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\langle0_y-(-y)_z,-(0_x-(-x)_z),(-y)_x-(-x)_y\rangle=\langle0,0,0\rangle

which confirms the two-dimensional curl is 0.

It also looks like the region R is the disk x^2+y^2\le5. Green's theorem says the integral of \vec F along the boundary of R is equal to the integral of the two-dimensional curl of \vec F over the interior of R:

\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\iint_R\mathrm{curl}\vec F\,\mathrm dA

which we know to be 0, since the curl itself is 0. To verify this, we can parameterize the boundary of R by

\vec r(t)=\langle\sqrt5\cos t,\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\implies\vec r'(t)=\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle

\implies\mathrm d\vec r=\vec r'(t)\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt5\langle-\sin t,\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt

with 0\le t\le2\pi. Then

\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_0^{2\pi}\langle-\sqrt5\cos t,-\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\cdot\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle5\int_0^{2\pi}(\sin t\cos t-\sin t\cos t)\,\mathrm dt=0
