Find the three arithmetic means between 7 and 21

1 answer:

8 0

<span>Since we are finding three arithmetic means between 7 and 21, that means there are 4 intervals between 7 and 21. The difference between 21 and 7 is 14, which we divide by 4 to get the value of each interval. Since each interval is 14/4 or 3.5, we keep adding that value to 7 to get our three arithmetic means. They are 10.5, 14, and 17.5</span>

the name Joe is very common at a school in one out of every ten students go by the name. If there are 15 students in one class,

kumpel [21]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.7941 = 79.41% probability that at least one of them is named Joe.

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes, either they are named Joe, or they are not. The probability of a student being named Joe is independent of any other student, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
