Recently, 1 U.S. dollar was worth 1.58 in euros. If you exchanged $25 at that rate, how many euros would you get?

The ratio (by volume) of salt and sugar in a certain mixture is 4 to 8. If the total volume of the solution is 300 cubic feet, w

You will use the ratio 4:8 to create a part to part to whole ratio.

First simplify 4:8 to 1:2, then make it 1:2:3 (Salt:Sugar:Total).

Use this to find the volume of sugar. 2 sugars for every 3 total would be equivalent to 200 cubic feet of sugar for every 300 total cubic feet.

You are at a stall at a fair where you have to throw a ball at a target. There are two versions of the game. In the first

Answer:

$P(X=0)=(3C0)(0.1)^0 (1-0.1)^{3-0}=0.729$

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.729

$P(Y=0)=(5C0)(0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^{5-0}=0.774$

And the probability of loss with the first wersion is 0.774

As we can see the best alternative is the first version since the probability of loss is lower than the probability of loss on version 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
