Using the binomial distribution, it is found that they would expect to find 240 dead batteries among the entire 12,000.
For each battery, there are only two possible outcomes, either it was dead or it was not. The probability of a battery being dead is independent of any other battery, hence the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.
<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>
It is the <u>probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
E(X) = np
In this problem, we have that:
- One in 50 batteries are dead, hence p = 1/50 = 0.02.
- There is a total of 12,000 batteries, hence n = 12000.
Then:
E(X) = np = 12000(0.2) = 240
They would expect to find 240 dead batteries among the entire 12,000.

Answer:
a) p-hat (sampling distribution of sample proportions)
b) Symmetric
c) σ=0.058
d) Standard error
e) If we increase the sample size from 40 to 90 students, the standard error becomes two thirds of the previous standard error (se=0.667).
Step-by-step explanation:
a) This distribution is called the <em>sampling distribution of sample proportions</em> <em>(p-hat)</em>.
b) The shape of this distribution is expected to somewhat normal, symmetrical and centered around 16%.
This happens because the expected sample proportion is 0.16. Some samples will have a proportion over 0.16 and others below, but the most of them will be around the population mean. In other words, the sample proportions is a non-biased estimator of the population proportion.
c) The variability of this distribution, represented by the standard error, is:
d) The formal name is Standard error.
e) If we divided the variability of the distribution with sample size n=90 to the variability of the distribution with sample size n=40, we have:
If we increase the sample size from 40 to 90 students, the standard error becomes two thirds of the previous standard error (se=0.667).
To solve this problem we can think of a rule of three.
Writing the rule of three we have:
3 ---> 2
x ----> 18
Clearing the value of x
x = ((18) / (2)) * (3) = 27
answer
zak will take 27 steps if rich takes 18 steps
The answer is 12 because first we have to simplify 14-8 to 6 so it will be
x-6=6
Then add 6 to both sides lastly simplify 6+6 to 12
So x=12
Answer:
name as AB =CD
angle A=angle D
BC=BC
hence angle ABC is congruent to angle BCD
(by sas congruency)
hence proved
