Answer:

you want 4 correct and 16 incorrect

there are 20 questions

each question has four answers, so

P(right answer) = 1/4

P(wrong answer) = 3/4

----

Since you want 4 correct of 20 we have a combination of 20C4

This is a binomial problem where p = 1/4, q = 3/4 and we get

(20 "choose" 4)*(probability correct)^(number correct)*(probability incorrect)^(number incorrect)

putting numbers in we get

(20c4)*(1/4)^4*(3/4)^16

This gives us

~ .189685

Find the value of x (URGENT/GIVING BRAINLIEST)
natta225 [31]

Answer:

B)10

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right angle(indicated by the red box) the total measure should be 90°.

And based on that we say 5X +40=90

Subtract 40 from both sides to get 5x=50

And then divide both sides by 5 to get x=10
