Answer:

a. P(X = 0)= 0.001

b. P(X = 1)= 0.001

c. P(X=2)= 0.044

d. P(X=3)= 0.117

e. P(X=4)= 0.205

f. P(X=5)= 0.246

g. P(X=6)= 0.205

h. P(X=7)= 0.117

i. P(X=8)= 0.044

j. P(X=9)= 0.001

k. P(X=10)= 0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have the variable X with binomial distribution, the probability of success is 0.5 and the sample size is n= 10 (I suppose)

If the probability of success p=0.5 then the probability of failure is q= 1 - p= 1 - 0.5 ⇒ q= 0.5

You are asked to calculate the probabilities for each observed value of the variable. In this case is a discrete variable with definition between 0 and 10.

You have two ways of solving this excersice

1) Using the formula

P(X)= \frac{n!}{(n-X)!X!} * (p)^X * (q)^{n-X}

2) Using a table of cummulative probabilities of the binomial distribution.

a. P(X = 0)

Formula:

P(X=0)= \frac{10!}{(10-0)!0!} * (0.5)^0 * (0.5)^{10-0}

P(X = 0) = 0.00097 ≅ 0.001

Using the table:

P(X = 0) = P(X ≤ 0) = 0.0010

b. P(X = 1)

Formula

P(X=1)= \frac{10!}{(10-1)!1!} * (0.5)^1 * (0.5)^{10-1}

P(X = 1) = 0.0097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 1) = P(X ≤ 1) - P(X ≤ 0) = 0.0107-0.0010= 0.0097 ≅ 0.001

c. P(X=2)

Formula

P(X=2)= \frac{10!}{(10-2)!2!} * (0.5)^2 * (0.5)^{10-2}

P(X = 2) = 0.0439 ≅ 0.044

Using table:

P(X = 2) = P(X ≤ 2) - P(X ≤ 1) = 0.0547 - 0.0107= 0.044

d. P(X = 3)

Formula

P(X = 3)= \frac{10!}{(10-3)!3!} * (0.5)^3 * (0.5)^{10-3}

P(X = 3)= 0.11718 ≅ 0.1172

Using table:

P(X = 3) = P(X ≤ 3) - P(X ≤ 2) = 0.1719 - 0.0547= 0.1172

e. P(X = 4)

Formula

P(X = 4)= \frac{10!}{(10-4)!4!} * (0.5)^4 * (0.5)^{10-4}

P(X = 4)= 0.2051

Using table:

P(X = 4) = P(X ≤ 4) - P(X ≤ 3) = 0.3770 - 0.1719= 0.2051

f. P(X = 5)

Formula

P(X = 5)= \frac{10!}{(10-5)!5!} * (0.5)^5 * (0.5)^{10-5}

P(X = 5)= 0.2461 ≅ 0.246

Using table:

P(X = 5) = P(X ≤ 5) - P(X ≤ 4) = 0.6230 - 0.3770= 0.246

g. P(X = 6)

Formula

P(X = 6)= \frac{10!}{(10-6)!6!} * (0.5)^6 * (0.5)^{10-6}

P(X = 6)= 0.2051

Using table:

P(X = 6) = P(X ≤ 6) - P(X ≤ 5) = 0.8281 - 0.6230 = 0.2051

h. P(X = 7)

Formula

P(X = 7)= \frac{10!}{(10-7)!7!} * (0.5)^7 * (0.5)^{10-7}

P(X = 7)= 0.11718 ≅ 0.1172

Using table:

P(X = 7) = P(X ≤ 7) - P(X ≤ 6) = 0.9453 - 0.8281= 0.1172

i. P(X = 8)

Formula

P(X = 8)= \frac{10!}{(10-8)!8!} * (0.5)^8 * (0.5)^{10-8}

P(X = 8)= 0.0437 ≅ 0.044

Using table:

P(X = 8) = P(X ≤ 8) - P(X ≤ 7) = 0.9893 - 0.9453= 0.044

j. P(X = 9)

Formula

P(X = 9)= \frac{10!}{(10-9)!9!} * (0.5)^9 * (0.5)^{10-9}

P(X = 9)=0.0097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 9) = P(X ≤ 9) - P(X ≤ 8) = 0.999 - 0.9893= 0.001

k. P(X = 10)

Formula

P(X = 10)= \frac{10!}{(10-10)!10!} * (0.5)^{10} * (0.5)^{10-10}

P(X = 10)= 0.00097 ≅ 0.001

Using table:

P(X = 10) = P(X ≤ 10) - P(X ≤ 9) = 1 - 0.9990= 0.001

Note: since 10 is the max number this variable can take, the cummulated probability until it is 1.

I hope it helps!

Find the distance between the points c ( 6, 5) and D(-3, 1),
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance (d) using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (6, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 1)

d = \sqrt{(-3-6)^2+(1-5)^2}

  = \sqrt{(-9)^2+(-4)^2}

  = \sqrt{81+16}

  = \sqrt{97} ≈ 9.85 ( to 2 dec. places )

A square pyramid. The square base has side lengths of 6 inches. The 4 triangular sides have a base of 6 inches and height of 9 i
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The area of the pyramid’s base is 36 in².

The pyramid has 4 lateral faces.  

The surface area of each lateral face is 27 in².

Step-by-step explanation:

"<u>Lateral</u>" means side, so the lateral faces are <u>triangles</u>.

The <u>base</u> is the bottom, which is a <u>square</u>.

To calculate the <u>area of the base</u>, use the formula for area of a square.

A_{base} = s^{2}

A_{base} = (6 in)^{2}

A_{base} = 36 in^{2}

To calculate the <u>area of a lateral face</u>, find the area of a triangle.

A_{lateral} = \frac{bh}{2}

A_{lateral} = \frac{(6 in)(9 in)}{2}

A_{lateral} = \frac{54 in^{2}}{2}

A_{lateral} = 27 in^{2}

In a pyramid, the number of lateral faces is the same as the number of sides in the base. <u>The square base as 4 sides, so there are 4 lateral faces</u>.
