Hello,

To find the value of (1 - x)³ when x = -3, you just need to substitute x = -3 into the given expression.

(1 - (-3)³
(1 + 3)³
4³
64

Your final answer is D, 64. Hopefully it helps! :D

Suppose that 7 in every 10 auto accidents involve a single vehicle. If 15 auto accidents are randomly selected, compute the prob

Answer:

$\mathbf{P(X \le 4 ) \simeq 0.0006722}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

p = x/n

p = 7/10

p = 0.7

sample size n = 15

Suppose X be the number of accidents involved by a single-vehicle.

Then;

$X \sim Binom (15,0.7)$

Thus, the required probability that at most 4 involve in a single-vehicle is

$P(X\le 4) \\ \\P(X \le 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X =1 ) + ... + P(X = 4)$

$P(X \le 4 ) = (^{15}_0) *0.7^0 *0.3^{15-0} + (^{15}_1) *0.7^1 *0.3^{15-1} + (^{15}_2) *0.7^2 *0.3^{15-2} + (^{15}_3) *0.7^3 *0.3^{15-3} + (^{15}_4) *0.7^4 *0.3^{15-4}$

$P(X \le 4 ) = (\dfrac{15!}{0!(15-0)!}) *0.7^0 *0.3^{15-0} + (\dfrac{15!}{1!(15-1)!}) *0.7^1 *0.3^{15-1} + (\dfrac{15!}{2!(15-2)!}) *0.7^2 *0.3^{15-2} + (\dfrac{15!}{3!(15-3)!}) *0.7^3 *0.3^{15-3} + (\dfrac{15!}{4!(15-4)!}) *0.7^4 *0.3^{15-4}$

$P(X \le 4 ) =1.4348907 \times 10^{-8} +5.02211745 \times 10^{-7} + 8.20279183 \times 10^{-6} + 8.29393397 \times 10^{-5} + 5.80575378 \times 10^{-4}$
