Find the value of x.

A fair die is rolled 12 times. the number of times an even number occurs on the 12 rolls has

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a fair die, there are six likely options; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6

the probability of a even number is 3/6 = 0.5

Since the results of the die roll is independent and each trial is mutually exclusive, the distribution to explain the probability of occurrence will follow a binomial distribution such that n is the number of trials

x = number of successful throws

therefore for a Binomial distribution where

P(X =x) = nCx . P^x . (1-P)^ (n-x)

since p = 0.5, and n = 12, the distribution follows

P(X = x) = 12Cx . 0.5^x . (1 - 0.5)^(12- x)

= 12Cx . 0.5^x . 0.5)^(12- x)

where x = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

since we are interested in the probability of the number of times an even number occurs

it can occur either as P(X = 0), P(X =1), P(X =2), P(X =3), P(X =4), P(X =5), P(X =6), P(X =7), P(X =8), P(X =9), P(X =10), P(X =11), and P(X =12)

For no even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 0) = 12C0 . 0.5^0 . 0.5^(12- 0) = 0.000244

For one even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 1) = 12C1 . 0.5^1 . 0.5^(12- 1) = 0.002930

For two even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 2) = 12C2 . 0.5^2 . 0.5^(12- 2) = 0.016113

For three even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 3) = 12C3 . 0.5^3 . 0.5^(12- 3) = 0.053711

For four even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 4) = 12C4 . 0.5^4 . 0.5^(12- 4) = 0.120850

For five even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 5) = 12C5 . 0.5^5 . 0.5^(12- 5) = 0.193359

For six even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 6) = 12C6 . 0.5^6 . 0.5^(12- 6) = 0.225586

For seven even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 7) = 12C7 . 0.5^7 . 0.5^(12- 7) = 0.193359

For eight even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 8) = 12C8 . 0.5^8 . 0.5^(12- 8) = 0.120850

For nine even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 9) = 12C9 . 0.5^9 . 0.5^(12- 9) = 0.053711

For ten even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 10) = 12C10 . 0.5^10 . 0.5^(12- 10) = 0.016113

For eleven even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 11) = 12C11 . 0.5^11 . 0.5^(12- 11) = 0.002930

For twelve even number in 12 rolls,

P(X = 12) = 12C12 . 0.5^12 . 0.5^(12- 12) = 0.000244

Final test summation[P(X)] = 1

i.e.

P(X = 0) + P(X =1) + P(X =2) + P(X =3) + P(X =4) + P(X =5) + P(X =6) + P(X =7) + P(X =8) + P(X =9) + P(X =10) + P(X =11) + P(X =12) = 1

Hence since 0.000244 + 0.002930 + 0.016113 + 0.053711 + 0.120850 + 0.193359 + 0.225586 + 0.193359 + 0.120850 + 0.053711 + 0.016113 + 0.002930 + 0.000244 = 1.000000,

the probability value stands

Can someone help me???

kompoz [17]

#9 You have to make the fraction a decimal, then multiply 11.8 by 6.5. This is because 11.8 is per hour.

#10 here is a hint, one quarter of an hour is 15 minutes. again change the fraction to a decimal

#11 just multiply the 2 numbers
1.4
×2.9
---------
126
+ 280
------------------
3.06

I need the answers to both. Will give brainiest!

miskamm [114]

Answer:

1. Number 1 and 2 and 4 is a function, 2. number 1 is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

1)To know if it's a function or not run vertical lines through multiple places of the graph. If it is a function every single time you do the vertical line test it should only go over the line once. If you do the vertical line test on 3 you will see that it went over the line on the graph, so we know not a function. Graphs 1, 2, and 4m however, are different, when you do the vertical line test on those graphs it only goes over them once.

2) Choice (1) is a function because when drawing vertical lines through the graph it only goes over one.

Choice (2) is not a function because when drawing vertical lines through the graph it covers two points on the graph.

Choice (3) is not a function because when drawing vertical lines through the graph it goes over multiple points.

Choice (4) is not a function because when a vertical line is drawn, it goes over more than one point on the graph.

The vertical test is a way to determine if it is a function.

When looking at a table functions are one-to-one and many-to-one

Non-functions are one-to-many and many-to-many

Hoped this helped you : )

Solve the following equation for all values of x: 10x^2 - 5x = 0

kirill115 [55]

Using the quadratic formula works but if you know there are 2 answers (highest power of problem tells you how many solutions) then
10x^2 = 5x
So either x = 0, giving 0=0. Or divide by 5x
2x = 1
x = 0.5
