Answer:

0.0561,0.0673,0.999997

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a sign on  the pumps at a gas station encourages customers to have their oil checked, and claims that one out of 8 cars needs to have oil added.

X- no of cars that need oil in a sample of 8 cars is binomial with p = 1/8

since each car is independent of the other and there are only two outcomes.

a) Exactly three out of the next eight cars needs oil.

Probability = P(X=3) =0.0561

b) At least three out of the next eight cars needs oil.

Probability = P(X\geq 3)\\= 0.0673

c) At most 6 out of the next 8 cars needs oil.

Probability =P(X\leq 6)\\=0.999997

a soccer team won 6 games out 10 total game if they played 25 total games how many games did they win
Lana71 [14]
Okay, so if with 10 games, they win 6, they would win 12 with 20. To find the 5, you would find half of 6 (since half of 10 is 5). Half of 6 is three. 3 plus 12 is 15. They would win 15 games.
