Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Four cards numbered (1, 5, 8,9)
Given the sample space S= 4
1.The first selection with replacement
Probability of picking a 9= 1/4
2. Second selection, probability of picking a 9= 1/4
Hence the probability that both cards drawn have the number 9.
Is = (1/4)*(1/4)= 1/16
Let the width be x.
Length is 8 feet more than width. Length = x + 8
Area = x(x + 8)
width increased by 4, that is, (x + 4)
Length decreased by 5, (x + 8 - 5) = (x + 3)
Area = (x + 4)(x +3)
Area remains the same
x(x + 8) = (x+4)(x +3)
x² + 8x = x(x +3) + 4(x +3)
x² + 8x = x² +3x + 4x +12
x² + 8x = x² +7x +12 Eliminate x² from both sides
8x = 7x + 12
8x - 7x = 12
x = 12
Dimensions of original rectangle : x, x + 8
12, 12 +8 = 12, 20
Original rectangle is 20 feet by 12 feet
Answer:
We can find the individual probabilities:
And replacing we got:
![P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.00114+0.009282+0.0358+0.0869+0.149]= 0.7178](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%20%5Cgeq%205%29%20%3D%201-%5B0.00114%2B0.009282%2B0.0358%2B0.0869%2B0.149%5D%3D%200.7178)
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:
The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
And we want to find this probability:

And we can use the complement rule:
We can find the individual probabilities:
And replacing we got:
![P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.00114+0.009282+0.0358+0.0869+0.149]= 0.7178](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%20%5Cgeq%205%29%20%3D%201-%5B0.00114%2B0.009282%2B0.0358%2B0.0869%2B0.149%5D%3D%200.7178)
129 divided by 5 is equal to 25 with a remainder of 4.
This means that she will need a total of 26 boxes, but only 25 of them will have 5 cupcakes in them. The last one will have 4 cupcakes.
