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 .

Zander read 13 3/4pages in 1/4 of an hour. Sydney read 43 1/3 pages in 2/3 of an hour. At these rates, would Zander or Sydney re
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zander read 13\frac{3}{4} pages in \frac{1}{4} of an hour.

Therefore, pages read by Zander in 1 hour = \frac{\text{Total pages read}}{\text{Total time taken}}

= \frac{13\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}}

= \frac{55}{4}\times \frac{4}{1}

= 55 pages per hour

Sydney read 43\frac{1}{3} pages in \frac{2}{3} of an hours.

Pages read by Sydney in 1 hour = \frac{43\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{2}{3} }

= \frac{130}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}

= 65 pages per hour

Therefore, number of pages read more by Sydney as compared to Zander,

= 65 - 55

= 10 pages per hour

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.
