Answer: the probability that exactly 2 buyers would prefer red is 0.0320

Step-by-step explanation:

We would assume a binomial distribution for the color preferences of new car buyers. The formula is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - r) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 40% = 40/100 = 0.4

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.4

q = 0.6

n = 14

x = r = 2

Therefore,

P(x = 2) = 14C2 × 0.4^2 × 0.6^(14 - 2)

P(x = 2) = 91 × 0.16 × 0.0022

P(x = 2) = 0.0320

The ratio is 2:3 for the side lengths of the triangles.

so 6:9 is one side and 5:x would be the other side

A class of 33 students elected a class treasurer. there were 111votes for candidate a and 15 votes for candidate
Advocard [28]

Since 111 is greater than 33, I will assume that you meant 11 votes for a candidate. Also, assuming that each student can vote only once, the answer would be

11/33 x 100=33.333333...

About 33.333 of the voters voted for candidate a.
