We have the formula to compute the probability of having exactly k successed over n trials, given a probability p of success (and implicitly a probability 1-p of failure), which is

$P(\text{k successed on n trials}) = \binom{n}{k}p^k(1-p)^{n-k}$

Now, the probability of at least 3 successes is the union of the following event: exactly three successes,exactly four successes and exactly five successes.

We can compute their probability and sum them: $\binom{5}{3}\left(\frac{3}{7}\right)^3\left(\frac{4}{7}\right)^2 + \binom{5}{4}\left(\frac{3}{7}\right)^4\left(\frac{4}{7}\right)^1 + \binom{5}{5}\left(\frac{3}{7}\right)^5 \approx 0.36788$

So, the answer is about 36.79%

Consider a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 + 4x – 6y – 36 = 0. Which statements are true? Check all that apply. To begin conver

Answer:

1) False, to begin converting the equation to standard form, each side must be added by 36. 2) True, to complete the square for the x terms, add 4 to both sides, 3) True, the center of the circle is at (-2, 3), 4) False, the center of the circle is at (-2, 3), 5) False, the radius of the circle is 7 units, 6) False, the radius of the circle is 7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let prove the validity of each choice:

1) To begin converting the equation to standard form, subtract 36 from both sides:

Let consider the following formula and perform the following algebraic operations:

(i) $x^{2} + y^{2} + 4\cdot x - 6\cdot y - 36 = 0$ Given

(ii) $x^{2} + 4\cdot x + y^{2} - 6\cdot y - 36 = 0$ Commutative Property

(iii) $(x^{2} + 4\cdot x + 4) - 4 + (y^{2} - 6\cdot y + 9) - 9 -36 = 0$ Modulative/Associative Property/Additive Inverse Existence

(iv) $(x+ 2)^{2} - 4 + (y - 3)^{2} - 9 - 36 = 0$ Perfect Trinomial Square

(v) $(x+2)^{2} +(y-3)^{2} = 4 + 9 + 36$ Commutative Property/Compatibility with Addition/Additive Inverse Existence/Modulative Property

(vi) $(x+2)^{2} + (y-3)^{2} = 49$ Definition of Addition/Result

False, to begin converting the equation to standard form, each side must be added by 36.

2) True, step (iii) on exercise 1) indicates that both side must be added by 4.

3) The general equation for a circle centered at (h, k) is of the form:

$(x-h)^{2}+ (y-k)^{2} = r^{2}$

Where $r$ is the radius of the circle.

By direct comparison, it is evident that circle is centered at (-2,3).

True, step (vi) on exercise 1) indicates that center of the circle is at (-2, 3).

4) False, step (vi) on exercise 1) indicates that the center of the circle is at (-2, 3), not in (4, -6).

5) After comparing both formulas, it is evident that radius of the circle is 7 units.

False, the radius of the circle is 7 units.

6) After comparing both formulas, it is evident that radius of the circle is 7 units.

False, the radius of the circle is 7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-coordinate points we need to evaluate the function for all the $x$ values in the table. In other words, we need to replace $x$ with each value in our given function and simplify.
