Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

The two expressions are equal for all x,y. In fact they are an identity.

Discussion:

(x +2 ) (y + 3) = xy + 3x + 2y + 6 (left hand side of =)

xy + 2y + 3(x+2) = xy + 2y + 3x + 6 (right hand side of =)

As the boldfaced values are equal the left hand side equals the right hand side! Hence the two expressions are equal for all x,y. In fact they are an identity.

Thank you,

MrB

Suppose you toss a fair coin 10 times, let X denote the number of heads. (a) What is the probability that X=5? (b) What is the p

zubka84 [21]

Answer: The required answers are

(a) 0.25, (b) 0.62, (c) 6.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that we toss a fair coin 10 times and X denote the number of heads.

We are to find

(a) the probability that X=5

(b) the probability that X greater or equal than 5

(c) the minimum value of a such that P(X ≤ a) > 0.8.

We know that the probability of getting r heads out of n tosses in a toss of coin is given by the formula of binomial distribution as follows :

$P(X=r)=^nC_r\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^r\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-r}.$

(a) The probability of getting 5 heads is given by

$P(X=5)\\\\\\=^{10}C_5\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^5\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-5}\\\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{5!(10-5)!}\dfrac{1}{2^{10}}\\\\\\=0.24609\\\\\sim0.25.$

(b) The probability of getting 5 or more than 5 heads is

$P(X\geq 5)\\\\=P(X=5)+P(X=6)+P(X=7)+P(X=8)+P(X=9)+P(X=10)\\\\=^{10}C_5\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^5\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-5}+^{10}C_6\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^6\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-6}+^{10}C_7\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^7\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-7}+^{10}C_8\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^8\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-8}+^{10}C_9\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^9\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-9}+^{10}C_{10}\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10}\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-10}\\\\\\=0.24609+0.20507+0.11718+0.04394+0.0097+0.00097\\\\=0.62295\\\\\sim 0.62.$

(c) Proceeding as in parts (a) and (b), we see that

if a = 10, then

$P(X\leq 0)=0.00097,\\\\P(X\leq 1)=0.01067,\\\\P(X\leq 2)=0.05461,\\\\P(X\leq 3)=0.17179,\\\\P(X\leq 4)=0.37686,\\\\P(X\leq 5)=0.62295,\\\\P(X\leq 6)=0.82802.$

Therefore, the minimum value of a is 6.

Hence, all the questions are answered.

Convert 65,000,000 to scientific notation please help!!

You have to move the decimal point from the end to between the 6 and 5 then count how many spaces you moved it because this will become the power on the 10.
6.5 x 10^7
