Here we have a situation where the probability of a driver wearing seat belts is known and remains constant throughout the experiment of stopping 20 drivers.

The drivers stopped are assumed to be random and independent.

These conditions are suitable for modelling using he binomial distribution, where

where n=number of drivers stopped (sample size = 20)

x=number of drivers wearing seatbelts (4)

p=probability that a driver wears seatbelts (0.35), and

C(n,x)=binomial coefficient of x objects chosen from n = n!/(x!(n-x)!)

So the probability of finding 4 drivers wearing seatbelts out of a sample of 20

P(4;20;0.35)

=C(20,4)*(0.35)^4*(0.65)^16

= 4845*0.0150061*0.0010153

= 0.07382

For the parallelogram, fond the value of the variables. Show your work.
lisabon 2012 [21]

For this case, the first thing you should know is that the opposite sides of the parallelogram are the same.

Therefore, we have the following equations:

3y-6 = 21\\5x + 2 = 17

From equation 1 we have:

3y = 21 + 6\\3y = 27

y = \frac{27}{3}\\y = 9

From equation 2 we have:

5x = 17 - 2\\5x = 15

x = \frac{15}{5}\\x = 3

Answer:

the value of the variables are:

y = 9\\x = 3

2x/3 - 5 = 21

2x/3 = 26

2x = 78

x = 39
