A salesperson contacts eight potential customers per day. From past experience, we know that the probability of a potential cust

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

(a) The probability the salesperson will make exactly two sales in a day is 0.1488.

(b) The probability the salesperson will make at least two sales in a day is 0.1869.

(c) The percentage of days the salesperson does not makes a sale is 43.05%.

(d) The expected number of sales per day is 0.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of sales made by the salesperson.

The probability that a potential customer makes a purchase is 0.10.

The salesperson contacts n = 8 potential customers per day.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n and p.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={8\choose x}0.10^{x}(1-0.10)^{8-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

(a)

Compute the probability the salesperson will make exactly two sales in a day as follows:

$P(X=2)={8\choose 2}0.10^{2}(1-0.10)^{8-2}\\=28\times 0.01\times 0.5314\\=0.1488$

Thus, the probability the salesperson will make exactly two sales in a day is 0.1488.

(b)

Compute the probability the salesperson will make at least two sales in a day as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

$=1-{8\choose 0}0.10^{0}(1-0.10)^{8-0}-{8\choose 1}0.10^{1}(1-0.10)^{8-1}\\=1-0.4305-0.3826\\=0.1869$

Thus, the probability the salesperson will make at least two sales in a day is 0.1869.

(c)

Compute the probability that a salesperson does not makes a sale is:

$P(X=0)={8\choose 0}0.10^{0}(1-0.10)^{8-0}\\=8\times 1\times 0.4305\\=0.4305$

The percentage of days the salesperson does not makes a sale is,

0.4305 × 100 = 43.05%

Thus, the percentage of days the salesperson does not makes a sale is 43.05%.

(d)

Compute the expected number of sales per day as follows:

$E(X)=np=8\times 0.10=0.80$

Thus, the expected number of sales per day is 0.80.

Y= x^2 -5 solve for x

dexar [7]

$Y= x^2 -5$

We need to solve for x, we need to get x alone

$Y= x^2 -5$

Lets start by removing -5

Add 5 on both sides

$y + 5= x^2 -5 + 5$

$y + 5= x^2$

Now to isolate x , we need to remove the square from x

To remove square , take square root on both sides

$+-\sqrt{y+5} = \sqrt{x^2}$

square and square root will get cancelled

$+-\sqrt{y+5} = x$

So $x = +\sqrt{y+5}$ and $x = -\sqrt{y+5}$

Let P=x^2+6 PLEASE SHOW WORK!! 15 POINTS

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = x^2 + 6

$(x^2+6)^2 - 21 = 4x^2 + 24\\(x^2+6)^2 - 4x^2 - 45 = 0$

Solving for 4x^2:

P = x^2 +6

P - 6 = x^2

4(P - 6) = 4x^2

Substitution:

$p^2 - 4p - 24 - 45 = 0\\p^2 -4p - 69 = 0$
