Answer:

0.942 is the required probability.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

x is a binomial random variable with n = 5 and p = 0.8.

Then,

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

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

We have to evaluate:

P(x \geq 3) = P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) +P(x=5)\\\\= \binom{5}{3}(0.8)^3(1-0.8)^2 +\binom{5}{4}(0.8)^4(1-0.8)^1 +\binom{5}{5}(0.8)^5(1-0.8)^0\\\\= 0.2048 +0.4096+0.3276=0.942

0.942 is the required probability.

In general, what can you conclude about a pair of angles that are both congruent and supplementary?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Both angles are right angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°. Since we know that both angles are congruent, let's call them x and x. We can write the following equation:

x + x = 180

2x = 180

x = 90°

Therefore, we can conclude that both angles are right angles.

leona has three dollars less than skye. together they have 17 dollars. how much money does skye have?
Fynjy0 [20]
L has "x -3"
S has "x"

x + x - 3 = 17

2x -3 (+3) = 17 (+3)

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

Leona has x - 3, or 10 - 3, or 7 dollars
Skye has 10 dollars

Someone please explain (:
GaryK [48]

Answer:

a.) 1.38 seconds

b.) 17.59ft

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 22.08t + 6

if we were to graph this, the vertex of the function would be the point, which if we substituted into the function would give us the maximum height.

to find the vertex, since we are dealing with something called "quadratic form" ax^2+bx+c, we can use a formula to find the vertex

-b/2a

b=22.08

a=-16

-22.08/-16, we get 1.38 when the minuses cancel out. since our x is time, it will be 1.38 seconds

now since the vertex is 1.38, we can substitute 1.38 into the function to find the maximum height.

h(1.38)= -16(1.38)^2 + 22.08t + 6 -----> is maximum height.

approximately = 17.59ft -------> calculator used, and rounded to 2 significant figures.

for c the time can be equal to (69+sqrt(8511))/100, as the negative version would be incompatible since we are talking about time. or if you wanted a rounded decimal, approx 1.62 seconds.

What are the coefficients for the binomial expansion of (p+q)^6
seropon [69]

Answer:

1 6 15 20 15 6 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this out, we need to look at Pascal's Triangle, which is a tricky little way to find the coefficients for any binomial expression like this! Check the attached photo.

Because this is to the sixth, we need the 6th row, which is <u>1 6 15 20 15 6 1.</u> From this, we know that those numbers are the coefficients!
