Answer and Step-by-step explanation: P(X) calculated by the binomial probability formula is:

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

P(20) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}53\\20\end{array}\right] .(0.3)^{20}.(1-0.3)^{33}

P(20) = \frac{53!}{33!.20!}.3.5.10^{-11}.7.7.10^{-6}

P(20) = 0.0552

To determine whether the normal distribution can be used to estimate this probability, both n.p and n.(1-p) must be greater than 5:

n . p = 53*0.3 = 15.9

n.(1-p) = 53(1-0.3) = 37.1

Since both ARE greater than 5, normal distribution can be used.

To approximate:

mean = n . p = 15.9

standard deviation = \sqrt{n.p.(1-p)} = 3.34

Find the z-score:

z = \frac{x - mean}{sd} = \frac{20-15.9}{3.34} = 1.23

z-score = 0.8907

Comparing values:

0.8907 - 0.0552 = 0.8355

a vegetarian sandwich is in the aproximate shape of a cone. the height of the sandwich is 6 inches and the base diameter is 3.5
Olenka [21]

Answer: 19.2inches³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is calculated as:

= 1/3πr²h

where,

π = 3.14

r = radius = diameter/2 = 3.5/2 = 1.75

h = height = 6

Volume = 1/3πr²h

= 1/3 × 3.14 × 1.75² × 6

= 19.2325

= 19.2inches³

Therefore, the volume of the cone-shaped sandwich is 19.2inches³.
