Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - p) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 36.5% = 36.5/100 = 0.365

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.365

q = 0.635

n = 15

a) P(x = 0) = 15C0 × 0.365^0 × 0.635^(15 - 0) = 0.0011

P(x = 1) = 15C1 × 0.365^1 × 0.635^(15 - 1) = 0.0095

P(x = 2) = 15C2 × 0.365^2 × 0.635^(15 - 2) = 0.038

P(x = 3) = 15C3 × 0.365^3 × 0.635^(15 - 3) = 0.095

P(x = 4) = 15C4 × 0.365^4 × 0.635^(15 - 4) = 0.16

P(x = 5) = 15C5 × 0.365^5 × 0.635^(15 - 5) = 0.21

k P(X = k)

0 0.0011

1 0.0095

2 0.038

3 0.095

4 0.16

5 0.21

b) mean = np = 15 × 0.365 = 5.475

c) standard deviation = √npq

= √15 × 0.365 × 0.635

= 1.86

d) z = (x - mean)/standard deviation

x = 2

z = (2 - 5.475)/1.86 = - 1.87

Solve. 10x^2 = 6 + 9x10x 2 =6+9x10, x, start superscript, 2, end superscript, equals, 6, plus, 9, x Choose 1 answer: Choose 1 an

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadratic equation is defined as

ax^2+bx+c=0         .... (1)

then the quadratic formula is

x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The given equation is

10x^2=6+9x

It can rewritten as

10x^2-9x-6=0            .... (2)

On comparing (1) and (2) we get

a=10,b=-9,c=-6

Using quadratic formula we get

x=\dfrac{-(-9)\pm \sqrt{(-9)^2-4(10)(-6)}}{2(10)}

x=\dfrac{9\pm \sqrt{81+240}}{20}

x=\dfrac{9\pm \sqrt{321}}{20}

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer questions 15 and 17 show work pls
fredd [130]

Answer:

#15) B. 30 mn^5

#17) B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>#15:</h2>

The area of a trapezoid is given in the formula: 1/2(a + b) * h, where a is the length of the top of the trapezoid, b is the length of the bottom of the trapezoid, and h is the height of the trapezoid.

All of these measurements are given so all that you need to do is to substitute these values into the formula.

Substitute 3 for a, 9 for b, and 5 for h.

  • 1/2(3 + 9) * 5

Solve inside the parentheses first. Add 3 and 9.

  • 1/2(12) * 5

Multiply 12 and 1/2 together.

  • 6 * 5

Multiply 6 and 5.

  • 30

We need to figure out if the area is to the 5th or 6th power. When we added 3 and 9 together, we combined like terms so the exponent stayed to the 3rd power.

After multiplying this ^3 by the 5mn^2, the exponent becomes to the 5th power because you add exponents when multiplying.

Therefore the final answer is B. 30 mn^5.

<h2>#17:</h2>

When going down from 32 to 8 to 2, you can see that each number is being divided by 4.

32 / 4 = 8...

8 / 4 = 2...

So to find the next number in this sequence you would divide 2 by 4.

  • 2 / 4 = 1/2

The answer is B. 1/2.
