Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for binomial distribution. It is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

p represents probability of success

q represents probability of failure.

n represents number of sample.

From the information given,

p = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

q = 1 - q = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

n = 8

1)The probability that none fails is

P(x = 0) = 8C0 × 0.9^(8 - 0) × 0.1^0

P(x = 0) = 0.43

2) The probability that one fails is

P(x = 1) = 8C1 × 0.9^(8 - 1) × 0.1^1

P(x = 1) = 0.38

3) The probability that four fails is

P(x = 4) = 8C4 × 0.9^(8 - 4) × 0.1^4

P(x = 4) = 0.0046

3) The probability that six fails is

P(x = 6) = 8C6 × 0.9^(8 - 6) × 0.1^6

P(x = 6) = 0.00002268

4) The probability that eight fails is

P(x = 8) = 8C8 × 0.1^(8 - 8) × 0.1^8

P(x = 8) = 0.00000001

The number 17 to the power of three over five can be written in the form a root of 17 to the power of b. What is the value of B?
sashaice [31]
We have the following expression:
 17 ^ (3/5)
 We rewrite the expression.
 We have then:
 a ^ root (17 ^ b)
 Where, for this case:
 a = 5
 b = 3
 Substituting:
 5 ^ root (17 ^ 3)
 Answer:
 
the value of B is:
 
b = 3

The volume of a cone is 3rx? cubic units and its height is x units. Which expression represents the radius of the cone's base, i
Marianna [84]

Answer:

It is given that the volume of a cone = 3\pi x^3 cubic units

Volume of cone with radius 'r' and height 'h' = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Equating the given volumes, we get

3\pi x^3=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

r^2h=3 × 3x^3

r^2h=9 x^3

It is given that the height is 'x' units.

Therefore, r^2x=9x^3

r^2=9x^2

Therefore, r=3 x

So, the expression '3 x' represents the radius of the cone's base in units.
