Show that p(y) p(y − 1) = (n − y + 1) p yq > 1 if y < (n + 1)p. This establishes that p(y) > p(y − 1) if y is small (y

< (n + 1)p) and p(y) < p(y − 1) if y is large (y > (n + 1) p). Thus, successive binomial probabilities increase for a while and decrease from then on. (n + 1)p > y

Question is not well presented

Consider the binomial distribution with n trials and P(S) = p.

Show that

p(y) /p(y − 1) = (n − y + 1)p /yq > 1 if y < (n + 1)p.

This establishes that p(y) > p(y − 1) if y is small (y < (n + 1)p) and p(y) < p(y − 1) if y is large (y > (n + 1) p). Thus, successive binomial probabilities increase for a while and decrease from then on.

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

p(y) /p(y − 1) = (n − y + 1)p /yq > 1 if y < (n + 1)p.

First, we make the following assumption

p(y) /p(y − 1) = (n − y + 1)p /yq = 1;

So, we have

(n − y + 1)p /yq = 1

(n − y + 1)p = yq

Note that p + q = 1;.

So, q = 1 - p

Substitute 1-p for q in the above expression

(n − y + 1)p = y(1-p)

np - py + p = y - py

Solve for y

..... Collect like terms

np + p = y - py + py

np + p = y;

So, y = np + p

y = (n + 1)p

From the above,

We know that

p(y) /p(y − 1) = 1

if y = (n + 1)p.

Similarly, we've also obtain that

p(y) /p(y − 1) > 1 if y < (n + 1)p.

Answer:

A = 76.8 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a regular polygon is calculated as

A = \frac{1}{2} pa ( p is the perimeter and a the apothem )

Here p = 8 × 4 = 32 yd and a = 4.8 yd , then

A = \frac{1}{2} × 32 × 4.8 = 16 × 4.8 = 76.8 yd²

The volume of a right circular cylinder is 1100 cm3 and the radius of its base is 5 cm. Calculate its curved surface area.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

  • (C) 440 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Volume:</u>

  • V = πr²h

<u>Given r = 5 cm and V = 110 cm³, find h:</u>

  • 1100 = π(5²)h
  • 1100/25 = πh
  • 44 = πh

<u>Curved surface area:</u>

  • S = 2πrh = 2*5*πh = 10*44 = 440 cm²

Correct choice is C
