This is an example of binomial probability (pass/fail), with n=8 and p(failure)=0.3.

The probability that none will fail is binompdf(8,0.3,0) = 0.0576.
The prob. that all will fail is found by subtracting this result from 1.0000, and is 1.0000-0.0576=0.9424.  "All" is the "complement" of "None."

I used my TI-83 Plus calculator's probability distribution functions to calculate the probability that none will fail.

Why is it important to draw equal parts on a nuber line
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: Some advantages of using a number line to teach fractions include: Number lines help students see fractions as not only parts of a whole or parts or parts of a set, but as a part of distance or a part of time. Number lines help us compare fractions. Number lines help us find equivalent fractions

Susan and John are buying cold drinks for a neighborhood picnic. Each person is
givi [52]

Answer:

Susan has suggested a correct method to calculate the amount of money

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we must check what each person is calculating. First, we consider Susan's method. She has suggested that we multiply the cost per soda, that is dollars/soda by the number of sodas required, we get the total cost.

Assuming that 18 sodas are required and each costs $0.20, the total cost according to Susan is $3.60.

John suggests we divide the cost of a 12 pack of soda by the number of sodas required. Considering a 12 pack of soda costs $12 and the same amount of sodas, 18, are required, we get that each soda costs $0.66.

Looking at these answers, we see that Susan has suggested a correct method to calculate the amount of money needed to buy a number of sodas. John has suggested the amount each person would have to contribute if everyone at the party was trying to buy a 12-pack of soda; regardless of whether more or less than a 12-pack is required.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

E. P(W | H)

Step-by-step explanation:

What each of these probabilities mean:

P(H): Probability of the game being at home

P(W): Probability of the game being a win.

P(H and W): Probability of the game being at home and being a win.

P(H|W): Probability of a win being at home.

P(W|H): Probability of winning a home game.

Which of the following probabilities do you need to find in order to determine the proportion of at-home games that were wins?

This is the probability of winning a home game. So the answer is:

E. P(W | H)
