Answer with explanation:

The binomial distribution formula :-

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

Given : The probability that adults need correction for their eyesight = 0.84

If 22 adults are randomly​ selected, then the probability that no more than 1 of them need correction for their eyesight .

P(X\leq1)=P(0)+P(1)\\\\=^{22}C_0\ (0.84)^{0}\ (1-0.84)^{22-0}+^{22}C_1\ (0.84)^1\ (1-0.84)^{22-1}\\\\=(0.84)^{0}(0.16)^{22}+22(0.84)(0.16)^{21}=3.6\times10^{-16}

which is much lower than 0.5 .

Yes , 1 is significantly low number of adults requiring eyesight​ correction .

What is 6+0<br> plzzzz help
Feliz [49]

6+0=6

When you add any number to 0, that number stays the same since you aren’t adding anything to it. So the answer is 6.

lisabon 2012 [21]
The tangent line to a circle makes an angle of 90 degrees with the radius.
If |FG| is tangent to circle E. then
30^2 = 26^2 + 17^2
which is not true.
Therefore, line segment FG is not tangent to circle E.
