Answer:

0.07776, 0.3456,0.08704

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a new surgical procedure is said to be successful 60% of the time

Let X be the no of successes

Then X has only two outcomes and each trial is independent of the other

Hence X is binomial with p = prob of success in a single trial = 0.60

n = Number of operations performed = 5

Prob that

a) all five operations are successful =

P(X=5)\\= (0.6)^5\\=0.07776

(b) exactly three are successful

=P(X=3) = 5C3 (0.6)^3(0.4)^2\\= 0.3456

(c) less than two are successful

==P(X

What is the center and radius of -10x = -121 - y2 - x2 -22y
OlgaM077 [116]

We need to find the center and the radius of

-10x\: =\: -121\: -\: y^2\: -\: x^2\: -22y

The general circle equation is the following

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where

(h,k) is the center and

r is the radius

1. rearrange the equation

(x^2-10x)+(y^2+22y+121)=0

2. Add 25 on both sides

(x^2-10x+25)+(y^2+22y+121)=25

3. Factor

(x-5)^2+(y+11)^2=5^2

Now we have an equation that is very similar to the circle equation, so let's compare them

Center -> (h,k) = (5,-11)

radius -> r = 5
