For his troops' popcorn fundraiser sale, Mike sold caramel corn for $10, buttered microwave popcorn for $8, and lightly buttered

popcorn for $7. By the end of the fundraiser, he had sold 400 items and made $3,272. If he sold twice as many lightly buttered microwave popcorn boxes as the buttered popcorn, how many boxes of each type of popcorn did he sell?

Answer:

a) P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039  

P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469  

P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211  

P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422  

P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316

b) E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3

c) Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866

d) P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75

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".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=4, p=1-0.25=0.75)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Part a

P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039  

P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469  

P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211  

P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422  

P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316

Part b

The expected value is givn by:

E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3

Part c

For the standard deviation we have this:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866

Part d

For this case the sample size needs to be higher or equal to 9. Since we need a value such that:

P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75

We can verify this using the following code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(3,9,0.75,TRUE)" and we got 0.99 and the condition is satisfied.

Math Help Don't Answer If Your Unsure of the answer please?<br> 2nd and 3rd pic is one question
vovangra [49]
If it si proportional
y/x=k or y=kx
if k is same throuout, then it is proportional
find their ratio
so
0/0=undefined, ignore
2/3=k
4/6=2/3=k
6/9=2/3=k
yes, proportional

y=kx
3=2k
1=2/3k
2/3 is answer



proprtional (2nd and 3rd)
graph is proprtional, first table is poroprtional
other ones are not
2nd picture is proportional, 3rd is not


(x,y), y is rise, x is run
unit rate is rise/run=15/6=5/2=2.5
unit rate is 2.5



unit rate is (1/2)/(2/5)=(1/2)(5/2)=5/4=1.25
unit rate is 1.25
