I believe this problem has 3 questions:

a. Explain why the three conditions are satisfied for X to have the binomial distribution.

b. Identify n and p for the binomial distribution.

c. Find the probability that the family has two girls and two boys.

 

Answers:

a. First because there are only 2 possible outcomes for each birth: male or female. Hence a binomial distribution. <span>
Second, because the probability of giving out a girl is constant: 0.49 for each birth. 
Third, the probability of a giving out a girl does not depend on whether or not there is already a boy or a girl in the family. </span>

b. The n is the total number of children, so n = 4

While the p is the success of being a girls, so P = 0.49

c. We use the binomial probability equation:

P (X) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

<span>P(X=2) = 4!/(2!2!) * 0.49^2 * 0.51^2 = 0.3747</span>

(2pm^-1q^0)^-4 • 2m ^-1 p^3 / 2pq^2
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

\dfrac{m^3}{16p^2q^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2pm^{-1}q^0)^{-4}\cdot \dfrac{ 2m^{-1} p^3}{2pq^2}

1.

m^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{m}

2.

q^0=1

3.

2pm^{-1}q^0=2p\cdot \dfrac{1}{m}\cdot 1=\dfrac{2p}{m}

4.

(2pm^{-1}q^0)^{-4}=\left(\dfrac{2p}{m}\right)^{-4}=\left(\dfrac{m}{2p}\right)^4=\dfrac{m^4}{(2p)^4}=\dfrac{m^4}{16p^4}

5.

m^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{m}

6.

2m^{-1} p^3=2\cdot \dfrac{1}{m}\cdot p^3=\dfrac{2p^3}{m}

7.

\dfrac{ 2m^{-1} p^3}{2pq^2}=\dfrac{\frac{2p^3}{m}}{2pq^2}=\dfrac{2p^3}{m}\cdot \dfrac{1}{2pq^2}=\dfrac{p^2}{mq^2}

8.

(2pm^{-1}q^0)^{-4}\cdot \dfrac{ 2m^{-1} p^3}{2pq^2}=\dfrac{m^4}{16p^4}\cdot \dfrac{p^2}{mq^2}=\dfrac{m^3}{16p^2q^2}

Graph the linear equations. Find three points that solve the equation -3x + 2y= 2
fredd [130]

Answer:

(0,1) , (2,4) , (4,7)

Explanation:

convert the equation into slope-intercept form (this would be y=3/2x+1)

now plug in random numbers for x and solve for y by multiplying them by 3/2 and adding 1.
