Answer:

The probability under the given conditions is found:

P(7) = 0.079

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults who believe in reincarnation.

Adults randomly selected = 8

percentage of adult believe in reincarnation = 40% = 0.4

x follows binomial distribution:

P(x) =  \left(\begin{array}{ccc}n\\x\end{array}\right) (p)^x(1-p)^{n-x}

where

n= total people random people selected = 8,

x = selected for the part = 7,

p = probability given = 0.4

P(7) = \left(\begin{array}{ccc}8\\7\end{array}\right) (0.4)^7(1-0.4)^{8-7}

P(7)= (8)(0.0164)(0.6)

P(7) = 0.07872

Rounding off to 3 decimal positions

P(7) = 0.079

Answer:

-11

Step-by-step explanation:

Our function is 2x-13x+5

  • 2x-13x+5= -11x+5
  • F(0)= 5 and F(6)= -11*6+5 = -61
  • let m be the average change : m= (-61-5)/6= -11
