According to an​ airline, flights on a certain route are on time 80 ​% of the time. suppose 10 flights are randomly selected and

the number of​ on-time flights is recorded. ​(a) explain why this is a binomial experiment. ​(b) find and interpret the probability that exactly 7 flights are on time. ​(c) find and interpret the probability that fewer than 7 flights are on time. ​(d) find and interpret the probability that at least 7 flights are on time. ​(e) find and interpret the probability that between 5 and 7 ​flights, inclusive, are on time.

<span>(a) This is a binomial experiment since there are only two possible results for each data point: a flight is either on time (p = 80% = 0.8) or late (q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2).
​(b) Using the formula:</span><span>
P(r out of n) = (nCr)(p^r)(q^(n-r)), where n = 10 flights, r = the number of flights that arrive on time:
P(7/10) = (10C7)(0.8)^7 (0.2)^(10 - 7) = 0.2013
Therefore, there is a 0.2013 chance that exactly 7 of 10 flights will arrive on time.
​(c) Fewer than 7 flights are on time means that we must add up the probabilities for P(0/10) up to P(6/10).
Following the same formula (this can be done using a summation on a calculator, or using Excel, to make things faster):
P(0/10) + P(1/10) + ... + P(6/10) = 0.1209
This means that there is a 0.1209 chance that less than 7 flights will be on time.
​(d) The probability that at least 7 flights are on time is the exact opposite of part (c), where less than 7 flights are on time. So instead of calculating each formula from scratch, we can simply subtract the answer in part (c) from 1.
1 - 0.1209 = 0.8791.
So there is a 0.8791 chance that at least 7 flights arrive on time.
(e) For this, we must add up P(5/10) + P(6/10) + P(7/10), which gives us
0.0264 + 0.0881 + 0.2013 = 0.3158, so the probability that between 5 to 7 flights arrive on time is 0.3158.

Enter a range of values of x
igomit [66]

Answer:

-5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if two corresponding sides of two triangles are equal, then third sides of the triangles depend on angle between equal sides.

Angle opposite to larger side is larger.

Since, 14 < 15, therefore

2x+10

2x

2x

x          ...(1)

We know that, angle can not not negative.

2x+10>0

2x>-10

x>-5        ...(2)

From (1) and (2), we get

-5

Therefore, the range of values of x is -5.

Which is an asymptofe of the graph the function y=cot(x-2π/3)
Shalnov [3]

Hello.


C) x=4π/3


The variable x in the cotangent argument has a unit coefficient, so the period is π, just as it is in the parent function cot(x).


Can you graph y = cot(x)? By subtracting the constant π/6 from the argument, that graph is translated to the right by π/6. Just as with cot(x), it is decreasing everywhere.


Have a nice day

I need help with the steps. The answer is (5,2)
Elden [556K]

So with this, I will be using the substitution method. With the first equation, substitute (y+3) into the x variable and solve for y:

y+3+y=7\\2y+3=7\\2y=4\\y=2

Next, now that we have the value of y, substitute it into either equation to solve for x:

x+2=7\\x=5\\\\x=2+3\\x=5

<u>And this is how you get your final answer (5,2).</u>

oksano4ka [1.4K]
The correct question is
<span>Peyton is a sprinter who can run the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds. He converts his speed into miles per hour, as shown below
</span>Which ratio is incorrectly written to convert his speed? 

the picture in the attached figure

we know that
The term (5280 ft/1 mi)  is incorrect
"Feet"<span> needs to be on the bottom to cancel with the previous term. 
</span>"Mile"<span> needs to be on top in the numerator so that the answer can be expressed in "miles per hour"
</span>
the correct term is (1 mi/5280 ft)
