X in (-oo:+oo)

(1/4)*x+2 = (-5/8)*x-5 // - (-5/8)*x-5

(1/4)*x-((-5/8)*x)+2+5 = 0

(1/4)*x+(5/8)*x+2+5 = 0

7/8*x+7 = 0 // - 7

7/8*x = -7 // : 7/8

x = -7/7/8

x = -8

x = -8

Which of the following points lies on the graph of the function y = 8x?
nignag [31]
Y = 8^x
For (0, 1): 1 ≠ 8^0 = 1
For (8, 1): 1 ≠ 8^8 = 16,777,216
For (2, 64): 64 = 8^2
For (0, 8): 8 ≠ 8^0 = 1

Therefore, option 3, (2, 64) is the correct answer.

Lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. a bank conducts inter
Otrada [13]
Part A:

Given that lie <span>detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector correctly determined that a selected person is saying the truth has a probability of 0.85
Thus p = 0.85

Thus, the probability that </span>the lie detector will conclude that all 15 are telling the truth if <span>all 15 applicants tell the truth is given by:

</span>P(X)={ ^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}} \\  \\ \Rightarrow P(15)={ ^{15}C_{15}(0.85)^{15}(0.15)^0} \\  \\ =1\times0.0874\times1=0.0874
<span>

</span>Part B:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.25
Thus p = 0.15

Thus, the probability that the lie detector will conclude that at least 1 is lying if all 15 applicants tell the truth is given by:

P(X)={ ^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow P(X\geq1)=1-P(0) \\  \\ =1-{ ^{15}C_0(0.15)^0(0.85)^{15}} \\ \\ =1-1\times1\times0.0874=1-0.0874 \\  \\ =0.9126


Part C:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.15
Thus p = 0.15

The mean is given by:

\mu=npq \\  \\ =15\times0.15\times0.85 \\  \\ =1.9125


Part D:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.15
Thus p = 0.15

The <span>probability that the number of truthful applicants classified as liars is greater than the mean is given by:

</span>P(X\ \textgreater \ \mu)=P(X\ \textgreater \ 1.9125) \\  \\ 1-[P(0)+P(1)]
<span>
</span>P(1)={ ^{15}C_1(0.15)^1(0.85)^{14}} \\  \\ =15\times0.15\times0.1028=0.2312<span>
