The atom is the basic unit in chemistry. An atom contains neutrons, protons, and electrons. Neutrons are neutral, protons have a

positive charge, and electrons have a negative charge. Most of the time, atoms are neutrally charged, meaning that they have the same number of protons and electrons. Sometimes, though, atoms lose or gain one or more electrons, and become positively or negatively charged. A positively or negatively charged atom is called an ion. An ion with more protons than electrons is positively charged. An ion with more electrons than protons is negatively charged.
One common ion is a Sodium ion, which has a charge of +1. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The ion has more electrons than protons.
B. The ion has the same number of protons and electrons.
C. The ion has more protons than electrons.

A set of equations is given below:
Novay_Z [31]

These would have infinite solutions because this is a slope-intercept equation. Since you are provided with the y-intercept in both, you can put anything in for the slope and it will work.

Hope this helps!

The probability that a randomly selected box of a certain type of cereal has a particular prize is 0.20.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a) the probability is 0.0734 (7.34%)

b) the probability is 0.7382 (73.82%)

c) 10 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each box is independent of the others and defining the random variable X= number of boxes of cereal purchased without prices until having 2 prices , then X has a negative binomial distribution . Thus

P(X=k)= C(k+r-1,k)*p^k *(1-p)^r

where

p= probability to not obtain a price when a box is purchased = 1- 0.2 = 0.8

C ( ) = combinations

k = number of boxes without prices

r= number of boxes with prices=2

P(X=k) = probability of purchasing k boxes without prices until obtaining r boxes with prices

a) for k= 8 - r = 6

P(X=6)= C(7,6)*0.8^6*0.2^2 = 7*0.8^6*0.2^2 = 0.0734 (7.34%)

b) for k≥9-2=7

P(X≥7) = 1- P(X<7)= 1- Fn(X=7)

where Fn(X) is the cumulative negative binomial distribution. We can calculate it through its relationship with the cumulative binomial distribution Fb(X) that is easily found in tables :

Fn(k=7,r=2,p=0.8) = Fb(k=7,n=k+r=9,p=0.8) = 0.2618

thus

P(X≥7) = 1- P(X<7)= 1- Fn(X=7) = 1-  0.2618 = 0.7382 (73.82%)

c) the expected value E(X) for a negative binomial distribution is

E(X)= p*r/(1-p) = 0.8*2/0.2 = 8 boxes that do not contain prices

thus

n=k+r = 8 + 2 = 10 boxes
