Answer:
Probability = 0.190
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of questions, 'n' = 20
Each question has four choices.
Let event of choosing correct answer be success and its probability be represented by 'p'.
Therefore, event of choosing wrong answer is failure and its probability be represented by 'q'.
Now, probability of success is choosing one correct answer out of 4 options. So,
Now, 'p' and 'q' are complements of each other. Therefore,
Now, we need 4 successes. Therefore,
Using Bernoulli's theorem to find 'x' successes from 'n' questions, we get:
Plug in 4 for 'x', 20 for 'n', 0.25 for 'p' and 0.75 for 'q'. Solve.
Therefore, the probability of getting 4 correct answers out of 20 questions is 0.190.
The given expression is
We have to find the discriminant first . And for that, first we need to move whole terms of the left side to right side, that is
The formula of discriminant is
Substituting the values of a,b and c, we will get
And since the discriminant is greater than 0, or it is positive so we have two real roots.
Therefore the correct option is B .
