Answer:

\mathbf{P(X=5) =0.0888}    

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.9707

P ( x ≥ 6) = 0.0293

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a binomial mass distribution can be expressed with the formula:

\mathtt{P(X=x) =(^{n}_{x} )   \  \pi^x \  (1-\pi)^{n-x}}

\mathtt{P(X=x) =(\dfrac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} )   \  \pi^x \  (1-\pi)^{n-x}}

where;

n = 8 and π = 0.36

For x = 5

The probability \mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8!}{5!(8-5)!} )   \  0.36^5 \  (1-0.36)^{8-5}}

\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8!}{5!(3)!} )   \  0.36^5 \  (0.64)^{3}}

\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5!}{5!(3)!} )  \times  \ 0.0060466 \  \times 0.262144}

\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8 \times 7 \times 6 }{3 \times 2 \times 1} )  \times  \ 0.0060466 \  \times 0.262144}

\mathtt{P(X=5) =({8 \times 7 } )  \times  \ 0.0060466 \  \times 0.262144}

\mathtt{P(X=5) =0.0887645}

\mathbf{P(X=5) =0.0888}     to 4 decimal places

b. x ≤ 5

The probability of P ( x ≤ 5)\mathtt{P(x \leq 5) = P(x = 0)+ P(x = 1)+ P(x = 2)+ P(x = 3)+ P(x = 4)+ P(x = 5})

{P(x \leq 5) = ( \dfrac{8!}{0!(8!)} \times  (0.36)^0  \times  (1-0.36)^8  \ )  +  \dfrac{8!}{1!(7!)} \times  (0.36)^1  \times  (1-0.36)^7  \ +\dfrac{8!}{2!(6!)} \times  (0.36)^2  \times  (1-0.36)^6  \ +  \dfrac{8!}{3!(5!)} \times  (0.36)^3  \times  (1-0.36)^5 +  \dfrac{8!}{4!(4!)} \times  (0.36)^4  \times  (1-0.36)^4  \  +  \dfrac{8!}{5!(3!)} \times  (0.36)^5  \times  (1-0.36)^3  \ )

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.0281+0.1267+0.2494+0.2805+0.1972+0.0888

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.9707

c. x ≥ 6

The probability of P ( x ≥ 6) = 1  - P( x  ≤ 5 )

P ( x ≥ 6) = 1  - 0.9707

P ( x ≥ 6) = 0.0293

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

total percent is 100%

we could rewrite the equation as:

48% + 24% + f = 100%

72% + f = 100%(subtract 72 on both side)

f = 28%

A can holds 2 liters of paint. How many cans can we fill with 11 liters of paint?
Zanzabum

Answer:

5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Each can holds 2 liters of paint. There is 11 liters of paint. The question is asking you to figure out how many cans of paint you can fill with 11 liters of paint. We can divide 11 by 2 to get the answer. 11÷2=5.5. The reason this works is because we are dividing the total amount of paint by how much each can will hold. 5.5 can also be written as "five and a half". So, the 11 liters of paint will fill 5.5 cans. Hope this helps!

We see here in the diagram that the base is a. We know this because the height is perpendicular to it. We also know the height is bsin(C) which, when replace h for bsin(C) and a for the base, we get A=absin(C), which is the second option.

Emil is running a lemonade stand. He sells half of his lemonade in the morning, a quarter of what was left at lunchtime, and a t
masya89 [10]

Emil starts the day with <u>16 liters</u> of lemonade if he is left with 4 liters by the end of the day. Computed using the fractional values given.

Let the initial quantity of lemonade with Emil be x liters.

Quantity sold by Emil in the morning = Half of his lemonade = (1/2)x liters, that is half fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = x - x/2 = x/2 liters, that is half fraction of x.

Quantity sold by Emil at lunchtime = Quarter of what was left = (1/4)(x/2) liters = x/8 liters, that is the one-eight fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = x/2 - x/8 = 3x/8 liters, that is the three-eight fraction of x.

Quantity sold by Emil in the afternoon = One-third of what was left = (1/3)(3x/8) liters = x/8 liters, that is the one-eight fraction of x.

Quantity left with Emil = 3x/8 - x/8 = x/4 liters, that is the quarter fraction of x.

Now, we are said that Emil closes for the day with 4 liters remaining.

Therefore, x/4 = 4, or, x = 4*4 = 16 liters.

Therefore, Emil started the day with 16 liters of lemonade.
