The probability that a randomly selected individual in a certain community has made an online purchase is 0.41 . Suppose that a

sample of 13 people from the community is selected, what is the probability that at most 3 of them has made an online purchase?
Write only a number as your answer. Round to 2 decimal places (for example 0.24). Do not write as a percentage.

Answer:

0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

What we can use to solve this problem is the Bernoulli approximation of the Binomial distribution.

When we say at most 3, it means 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 people out of the 13 made the purchase

Mathematically, the Bernoulli approximation is applied as follows

P(X = n) = nCr p^r q^n-r

let p = probability of making online purchase = 0.41

while q = 1-p = 1-0.41 = 0.59 which is the probability of not making an online purchase.

Mathematically for each of the approximations up to 3, we have ;

13C0 P^0 q^13 + 13C1 P^1 q^12 + 13C2 P^2 q^11 + 13C3 P^3 q^10

Making substitutions, we have

{1 * 0.41^0 * 0.59^13} + {13 * 0.41^1 * 0.59^12} + {78 * 0.41^2 * 0.59^11} + {286 * 0.41^3 * 0.59^10}

= 0.150820944904 which is 0.15 to 2 decimal places

The stock of Company A lost $4.17 throughout the day and ended at a value of
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

After losing 4.17, it came down to 100.08, so the opening price was:

100.08 + 4.17 = 104.25

To find percentage decline, we find the ratio of the "change" (which is 4.17) divided by the opening (original) price, which is 104.25. Then we multiply that fraction by 100 to get our percentage decline.

So,

\frac{4.17}{104.25}*100=4

Thus, the

percentage decline = 4%

How many acute, obtuse, and right angles are in this figure?
marta [7]
Hello!

Acute angles are angles less than 90°

A right angle is a angle that is exactly 90°

A Obtuse angle is a angle that is more than 90°

Looking at the picture there are

acute angles - 2
obtuse angles - 2
right angles - 0

Hope this helps!

A circle with area 100π has a sector with a central angle of 2/5π radians.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

  20π square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The sector area is found using the proportion ...

  sector area / circle area = sector angle / whole circle angle

Multiplying by "circle area", we get ...

  sector area = (circle area)( sector angle / whole circle angle)

  = (100π)(2/5π)/(2π)

  = (100π)(1/5)

  sector area = 20π
