A package delivery service claims that no more than 5 percent of all packages arrive at the address late. Assuming that the cond

itions for the binomial​ hold, if a sample of size 10 packages is randomly selected and the 5 percent rate​ holds, what is the probability that more than 2 packages will be delivered​ late? Round to four decimal places.

Answer: 0.0115

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability formula :-

P(X)=^nC_x\ p^x(1-p)^{n-x}, here n is the number total of trials , p is the probability of getting success in each trial and P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trial.

Given : A package delivery service claims that no more than 5 percent of all packages arrive at the address late.

We assume that the conditions for the binomial​ hold with parameters :-

n=10 ; p=0.05

Let x be the random variable that represents the number of packages arrive at the address late.

Now, the probability that more than 2 packages will be delivered​ late :-

P(x>2)=1-P(x\leq2)\\\\=1-(P(0)+P(1)+P(2))\\\\=1-(^{10}C_0(0.05)^{0}(1-0.05)^{10}+^{10}C_{1}(0.05)^1(1-0.05)^9+^{10}C_{2}(0.05)^2(1-0.05)^8)\\\\=1-((0.95)^{10}+(10)(0.05)(0.95)^9+45(0.05)^2(0.95)^8}\\\\=1-0.988496442621=0.011503557379\approx0.0115

Hence, the probability that more than 2 packages will be delivered​ late = 0.9885

If 3t - 7 = 5t, then 6t = <br> A. 21 <br> B. -7 <br> C. -21<br> D. -42
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. -21 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for t. Isolate the variable t in the first equation, then use the number gotten to solve the second equation.

3t - 7 = 5t

First, subtract 3t from both sides

3t (-3t) - 7 = 5t (-3t)

-7 = 5t - 3t

-7 = 2t

Isolate the variable (t). Divide 2 from both sides

(-7)/2 = (2t)/2

t = -7/2

t = -3.5

Plug in -3.5 for t in the second equation

6(t) =

6(-3.5) =

6(-3.5) = -21

C. -21 is your answer

Braden biked 10 8/9 miles on Monday. On Tuesday, he biked 3/ 4 as far as Monday. How many total miles did he bike over the two d
torisob [31]

Answer:

19 1/18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Tuesday's ride we need to multiply 10 8/9 by 3/4.

10 8/9 = (9*10+8) / 9 =  98/9 miles.

98 / 9  * 3/4

= 98/3 * 1/4

49/6

= 8 1/6 miles.

Total miles over 2 days = 10 8/9 + 8 1/6

= 18 + 8/9 + 1/6

= 18 +  48/54 + 9/54

= 18 57/54

= 19 3/54

= 19 1/18 miles.
