<span>We know that there is no universal acceptance meaning of a percentile. When someone told you that you are in the 80th percentile, the meaning of that is you have achieved the lowest score that is greater than 80 percent of the score. It is calculated by using the formula     <span>R = P/100 x (N + 1)</span></span>

kompoz [17]

Answer:

The probability that you get zero questions correct is 0.4096

The probability that you get one questions correct is 0.4096

The probability that you get three questions correct is 0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

These probability can be describe with a Binomial Distribution. These distribution can be used when we have n identical and independent situations in which there is a probability p or probability of success and a probability q or probability of fail. Additionally q is equal to 1 - p. The probability of x for a situation in which we can apply binomial distribution is:

P( x,n,p) = n Cx * p^{x } * q^ {n-x}

Where x is the variable that says the number of success in the n situations

And nCx is calculate as:

nC x = \frac{ n!}{ x! (n-x)! }

From the question we can identify that:

  • n is equal to 4 multiple choice question
  • p is 1/5 or 0.2, the probability of get one question correct
  • q is 4/5 or 0.8, the probability of get one question incorrect

Then the probability of get zero questions correct of 4 questions is:

P( 0, 4, 0.2) = 4 C0 * p^{0 } * q^ {4-0}= 0.4096

The probability of get one question correct of 4 questions is:

P( 1, 4, 0.2) = 4 C1 * p^{1 } * q^ {4-1}= 0.4096

The probability of get three questions correct of 4 questions is:

P( 3, 4, 0.2) = 4 C3 * p^{3 } * q^ {4-3}= 0.0256

2. explain what is meant by (distribution) transparency and give examples of different types of transparency.
konstantin123 [22]

The phenomena of hiding distribution characteristics in a system from applications and users is known as distribution transparency. Access transparency, location transparency are some examples.

<h3>Define the term (distribution) transparency?</h3>

Distributed databases have the attribute of distribution transparency, which keeps consumers from knowing the internal workings of the distribution.

  • The DDBMS designer has the option of replicating table fragments, storing them at several locations, and fragmenting tables.
  • There are numerous distribution methods. Systems that need a wide range of management systems to pinpoint the source of resources, a product, or a service delivery process from the end user.
  • Typically, the distributor, seller, or producer is responsible for maintaining transparency to track the many points at which resources, goods, or services are delivered.
  • Accounting supplied by any intermediary company in the product, service, or resource flow is, of course, the usual approach to determine the degrees of value added through distribution management.

Thus, access transparency, location transparency are some examples of the (distribution) transparency.
