Using a function on her calculator, Jamie can generate a single random digit by pressing the "Enter" key. She wants to experimen

t and see how many times it will take for her calculator to generate a fifth "4." Assume that the calculator will generate a "4" on any given attempt with probability 0.20. How many total generated digits should we expect in order to get a fifth "4"

Answer:

We should expect 25 generated digits in order to get a fifth "4"

Step-by-step explanation:

For each generated digit, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a four, or it is not. The probability of a digit being a 4 is independent of other digits. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

The expetcted number of trials to get r sucesses, with p probability, is given by:

E = \frac{r}{p}

Assume that the calculator will generate a "4" on any given attempt with probability 0.20.

This means that p = 0.2

How many total generated digits should we expect in order to get a fifth "4"

This is E when r = 5. So

E = \frac{r}{p} = \frac{5}{0.2} = 25

We should expect 25 generated digits in order to get a fifth "4"

3x-2y=-5 and 4x+2y=-16​
podryga [215]

Answer:

x=-22/4

y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2y=-5

4x+2y=-16

we <u>add</u> the equation

7y=-21

y=-3

then we find the x by taking a random equation

I take 4x+2y=-16

4x+2(-3)=-16

4x-6=-16

4x=-22

x=-22/4
