8 0

Answer: 0.0023

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the binomial variable that represents the number of receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered.

probability of success p = 32% = 0.32

Sample size : n= 10

Binomial probability function :

P(X=x)= \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Now, the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered :

P(X=8)=\ ^{10}C_8(0.32)^8(1-0.32)^2\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{8!2!}(0.32)^8(0.68)^2\\\\=5\times9(0.0000508414176684)\\\\=0.00228786379508\approx0.0023

hence, the required probability = 0.0023

Break downs occur on a 20-years-old car with rate λ= 0.5 breakdowns/week. The owner of the car is planning to have a trip on his
KengaRu [80]

Answer: There is probability of 0.367 that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean (λ) = 0.5 breakdown per week

Number of weeks the owner of the car is planning to have a trip on his car for = 2 weeks

So, mean for 2 weeks would be

0.5\times 2=1.0

We need to find the probability that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.

Probability that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip is given by

P(X=0) is given by

\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^k}{k!}\\\\=\dfrac{e^{-1}1^0}{0!}\\\\=0.367

Hence, there is probability of 0.367 that there will be no breakdown on his car in the trip.

Need help with the problem in the photo.
Simora [160]

Answer:

43

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle, 3x + 14 and the other angle 143 are alternate exterior angles. Alternate exterior angles are congruent to each other if the two lines are parallel. So in this case both the angles are considered congruent from the question assuming that they are congruent.

143 = 3x + 14

129 = 3x

x = 43
