Answer:
The probability that the pitcher throws exactly 8 strikes out of 15 pitches is approximately 0.199
Step-by-step explanation:
The given probability that the pitcher throws a strike, p = 0.507
The number of pitches thrown by the pitcher = 15 pitches
The probability that the pitcher does not throw a strike, q = 1 - P
∴ q = 1 - 0.507 = 0.493
By binomial theorem, we have;

When X = r = 8, and n = 15, we get;
The probability that the pitcher throws exactly 8 strikes out of 15 pitches, P(8), is given as follows
P(8) = ₁₅C₈ × 0.507⁸ × (1 - 0.507)⁽¹⁵ ⁻ ⁸⁾ = 6,435 × 0.507⁸ × 0.493⁷ ≈ 0.199

Answer:
Midpoint (-2,4)
distance nearest tenth = 8.9
The approximate distance = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Formulas
PQ midpoint = (x2 + x1)/2, (y2 + y1)/2
distance d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )
Givens
x2 = -4
x1 = 0
y2 = 1
y1 = 7
Solution
M(PQ) = (-4+0)/2, (1 + 7)/2
M(PQ) = -2, 4
The midpoint is -2,4
The distance = sqrt( (4 - 0)^2 + (1 + 7)^2 )
The distance = sqrt(16 + 64)
The distance = sqrt(80)
The distance = 4√5 exactly
The distance = 8.94
The distance = 8.9 To the nearest tenth
Question 2
The distance is rounded to the nearest whole number which is 9.
