ains 52 M&M's.
A) State the random variable.
B) Argue that this is a binomial experiment.
Find the probability that:
C) 6 M&M's are brown.
D) 25 M&M's are brown.
E) All of the M&M's are brown.
F) Would it be unusual for a package to have only brown M&M's? If this were to happen, what would you think is the reason?

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scenario above :

A) State the random variable.

The random variable is the p opoertion of brown M&M's in a milk chocolate packet.

B.) Argue that this is a binomial experiment.

Each trial is independent for a total number of 52 trials with a set probability of success at 0.14

C) probability that 6 M&M's are brown:.

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)

p = 0.14 ; (1 - p) = 0.86 ; n = 52 ; x = 6

P(x = 6) = 52C6 × 0.14^6 × 0.86^46

= 20358520 × 0.00000752954 × 0.00097035078

= 0.1487

D) P(x =25)

P(x = 25) = 52C25 × 0.14^25 × 0.86^27

= 477551179875952 × 449.987958058*10^(-24) × 0.01703955245

= 0.00000000366

E) P(x = 52)

P(x = 52) = 52C52 × 0.14^52 × 0.86^0

= 1 × 3968.78758299*10^(-48) × 1

= 3968.78758299*10^(-48)

F) yes it would be unusual, because such probability is extremely low. However, if a huge or substantial number of trials such may occur

A group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the
Alexus [3.1K]

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people hold by small cars = 4

Number of people hold by large cars = 6

Let,

Number of small cars = x

Number of large cars = y

The students rented 4 times as many large cars as small cars,

y = 4x    Eqn 1

which altogether can hold 56 people.

4x+6y=56   Eqn 2

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.

What is the product of 1.7 × 10−13 and 3.5 × 1025?
kkurt [141]
ANSWER

3.95 \times {10}^{12}

EXPLANATION

The first number is

1.7 \times {10}^{ - 13}

The second number is

3.5 \times {10}^{25}

The product of the above two numbers is
1.7 \times {10}^{ - 13} \times 3.5 \times {10}^{25}

We regroup the numbers to obtain,

(1.7 \times 3.5) \times {10}^{ - 13} \times {10}^{25}

We now multiply out the expression in the bracket to obtain,

3.95 \times {10}^{ - 13} \times {10}^{25}

Recall also that,

{a}^{m} \times {a}^{n} = {a}^{m + n}

We apply this property to obtain,

3.95 \times {10}^{ - 13 + 25}

This finally simplifies to,

3.95 \times {10}^{12}

Therefore the correct answer is D.
