Answer:
The probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly is 0.0625.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a student ran out of time on a multiple-choice exam and randomly guess the answers for two problems each problem have four answer choices ABCD and only one correct answer.
Let X = <u><em>Number of problems correctly answered by a student</em></u>.
The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;
where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 2 problems
r = number of success = neither of the problems are correct
p = probability of success which in our question is probability that
a student answer correctly, i.e; p =
= 0.75.
So, X ~ Binom(n = 2, p = 0.75)
Now, the probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly is given by = P(X = 0)
P(X = 0) = 
= 
= <u>0.0625</u>
Answer:
n=7
Step-by-step explanation:
difference means subtraction so:
8n - 21= 35
8n=35+21
8n= 56
n= 56÷8
n=7
The number y, decreased by 12
C) 1 b =-2. D) 7 f(-2) = 3(-8) - 2. -5 x=6
y. 4(y + 1) = x. If (x, y) is the solution to
the system of equations.
Answer:the height of the balloon is 670.244 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The right angle triangle BLD represents the scenario.
h represents the height of the balloon.
We would apply trigonometric ratio to determine h.
Tan # = opposite side/adjacent side
Looking at triangle LCD,
# = 61 degrees
h = opposite side
x = adjacent side
Tan 61 = h/x
1.7321 = h/x
h = 1.7321x
Looking at triangle LBD,
# = 54 degrees
h = opposite side
x + 100 = adjacent side
Tan 54 = h/x + 100
1.3764 = h/x + 100
h = 1.3764(x + 100)
Therefore,
1.7321x = 1.3764(x + 100)
1.7321x = 1.3764x + 137.64
137.64 = 1.7321x - 1.3764x
137.64 = 0.3557x
x = 137.64/0.3557 = 386.955
h = 1.7321x = 386.955 × 1.7321
h = 670.244 feet
