Step-by-step answer:

assuming the true-false test have equal probabilities (each 0.5), we can use the binomial probability to calculate the sum of probabilities of getting 10, 11 or 12 questions correctly out of 12.

p=probability of success = 0.5

N=number of questions

x = number of correct answers

then

P(x) = C(N,x)(p^x)((1-p)^(N-x))

where C(N,x) = N!/(x!(N-x)!) = number of combinations of taking x objects out of N.

P(10) = C(12,10)(0.5^10)((1-0.5)^2) = 33/2048 = 0.01611

P(11) = C(12,11)(0.5^11)((1-0.5)^1)     =  3/1024 = 0.00293

P(12) = C(12,12)(0.5^12)((1-0.5)^0) =  1/4096 = 0.00024

for a total probability of 79/4096 = 0.01929

Which of the following is the result of expanding
andrey2020 [161]

The given expression is 2x-3 .

So when x =1, we will get 2(1)-3 = 2-3 =-1

When x=2, we will get, 2(2) -3 = 4-3 =1

When x=3, we will get 2(3)-3 = 6-3=3

When x=4, we will get 2(4)-3 = 8-3=5

So the required result of the expansion is -1+1+3+5=8

Correct option is the second option .
