You take a quiz with 6 multiple choice questions. After you studied your estimated that you would have about an 80 % chance of g

Arada [10]

Answer:

1.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the probability of m independent events you multiply the individual probability of each event. In this case we have m independent events, each one with the same probability, therefore:

$p^{m}$

$0.8^{20} = 1.15\%$

This is a particlar scenario of binomial distribution problem. So the binomial distribution questions are about the number of success of m independent events, where every individual event has the same p probability. In the question we have 20 events and each event has a probability of 80%. The binomial distribution formula is:

$\binom{n}{k} * p^{k} * (1-p)^{n-k}$

n is the number of events

k is the number of success

p is the probability of each individual event

$\binom{n}{k}$ is the binomial coefficient

the binomial coefficient allows to find the subsets of k elements in a set of n elements. In this case there is only one subset possible since the only way to get 20 of 20 correct questions is to getting right all questions (for getting 19 of 20 questions there are many ways, for example getting the first question wrong and all the other questions right, or getting second questions wrong and all the other questions right, etc).

$\binom{n}{k} = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

therefore, for this questions we have:

$\frac{20!}{20!(20-20)!} * 0.8^{20} * (1-0.8)^{0} = 1.15\%$

A gallery has 25 paintings in its permanent collection, with display space for 10 at one time. How many different collections ca

Anastaziya [24]

You need to know in how many ways you can choose 10 out of 25 items when order does not matter. This is a combination problem.

$_{n}C_{r} = \dfrac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25!}{(25 - 10)!10!}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 \times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16 \times 15!}{15! \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 
\times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16}{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 
\times 2 \times 1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17}{1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = 23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17$

$_{25}C_{10} = 3,268,760$
