James reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria. So he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking. If eggs do or don't

contain salmonella independently of each other, the number of contaminated eggs when James uses 5 chosen at random has the distributionA. binomial with n = 6 and p = 1/6.B. binomial with n = 5 and p = 1/6.C. binomial with n = 5 and p = 1/5.

Answer:

B. binomial with n = 5 and p = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that James reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria.

So he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking.

If eggs do or don't contain salmonella independently of each other, then

probability for any one egg to contain salmonella bacteria is the constant 1/6.

Also there are only two outcomes, either bacteria present or not.

Hence the  number of contaminated eggs when James uses 5 chosen at random has the distribution is Binomial

Here n = no of trials = no of eggs he uses = 5

Probability = 1/6

So option B is right.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(1, 9/2) or (1, 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, take the x1 and x2 values and divide it by 2, same for the y values.

Answer:

The correct option is C). (9,4)

The coordinates of a point N is (9,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Theory: If point P(x,y) lies on line segment AB and AP: PB=m:n, then we say P divides line AB internally in ratio of m:n and Point is given by

P=(\frac{mX2+nX1}{m+n} , \frac{mY2+nY1}{m+n})

Given that point, M is lying somewhere between point L and point N.

The coordinates of a point L is (-6,14)

The coordinates of a point M is (-3,12)

Also, LM: MN = 1:4

We can write as,

Let,

Point L(-6,14)=(X1, Y1)

Point M(-3,12)=(x,y)

Point N is (X2, Y2)

m=1 and n=4

M(-3,12)=(\frac{mX2+nX1}{m+n} , \frac{mY2+nY1}{m+n})

M(-3,12)=(\frac{1(X2)+4(-6)}{1+4} , \frac{(Y2)+4(14)}{1+4})

M(-3,12)=(\frac{(X2)-24}{5} , \frac{1(Y2)+56}{5})

(-3)=\frac{(X2)-24}{5}

(-15)=X2-24

X2=9

(12)=\frac{(Y2)+56}{5}

(60)=Y2+56

Y2=4

Thus,

The coordinates of a point N is (9,4)

Result: The correct option is C). (9,4)
