Binomial distribution can be used because the situation satisfies all the following conditions:1. Number of trials is known and remains constant (n)2. Each trial is Bernoulli (i.e. exactly two possible outcomes) (success/failure)3. Probability is known and remains constant throughout the trials (p)4. All trials are random and independent of the othersThe number of successes, x, is then given byP(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}whereC(n,x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}
Here we're given
p=0.10  [ success = defective ]
n=3

(a) x=0
P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=C(3,0)0.1^0(1-0.1)^{3-0}
=1(1)(0.729)
=0.729

(b) x=2
P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}
=3(0.01)(0.9)
=0.027

(c) x ≥ 2
P(x)=\sum_{x=2}^3C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}
=P(2)+P(3)
=C(n,2)p^2(1-p)^{n-2}+C(n,3)p^3(1-p)^{n-3}
=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}+C(3,3)0.1^3(1-0.1)^{3-3}
=3(0.01)(0.9)+1(0.001)1
=0.027+0.001
=0.028

Matthew opens a store credit card when he purchases a new sound system. The interest rate is 22.45%. He charges $4,120 to the ca
Nookie1986 [14]

Let

C----------------- > charges for the purchases to the credit card

<span>r------------------- > the interest rate    </span>

X------------------ > total cost of the purchase

 we know that

C=4120

r= 22.45%=0.2245

X=C*(1+r)

 substituting the values ​​in the formula

X=(4120)*(1+0.2245)= (4120)*(1.2245)=5044.94

 the answer is $5044.94
