Answer:

a.) 20 kilometers

b.)1.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) formula= speed =distance/time

Speed= 10km/hr

Distance=unknown

Time=2hrs

Therefore from formula, distance=speed x time

10 x 2

20 kilometers

b.) If average speed is increased by 2km/hr then

total speed= 2+10=12km/hr

Distance remains constant therefore distance= 20km

Therefore time =distance/speed

20/12

= 1.67 hours

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in

lukranit [14]

Answer: $\dfrac{26}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.

Proportion of success : $p=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{2}{3}$

Sample size taken by customs oﬃcial : n= 3

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.

Using Binomial probability formula :-

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

The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = $P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)$

$1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}$

Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = $\dfrac{26}{27}$
