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.

Aiden knows the length of only one side of his garden. He says he will be able to find the area knowing only one aide. Explain h
Snowcat [4.5K]
This is possible providing the garden is in the shape that has equal sides, such as a square or an equilateral triangle.

Area of a square is found by multiplying one side to the other, which would be the same as multiplying two same numbers.

One angle of the following triangle measures 2x. How many degrees does that angle
ella [17]

<u>Given</u><u> info</u><u>:</u><u>-</u> In triangle (∆)ABC , in which ∠A = 2x, ∠B = x+15° and ∠C = 2x + 10°. Then find the value of x , also find the measure of each angles of a triangle.

<u>Explanation</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Let the angles be 2x, x+15 and 2x+10 respectively.

∵ Sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°

∴ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° [Sum of ∠s of a ∆=180°]

→2x + x+15 + 2x+10 = 180°

→ 2x + x + 2x + 15 + 10 = 180°

→ 3x + 2x + 15 + 10 = 180°

→ 5x + 15 + 10 = 180°

→ 5x + 25 = 180°

→ 5x = 180°-25

→ 5x = 155°

→ x = 155°÷5 = 155/5 = 31.

Now, finding the measure of each angles of a ∆ABC by putting the original value of “x”.

∴ ∠A = 2x = 2(31) = 62°

∠B = x+15 = 31 + 15 = 46°

∠C = 2x + 10 = 2(31) + 10 = 62 + 10 = 72°.
