Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in  foreign language=0.20

The probability than an American CEO can not transact business in foreign language=1-0.20=0.80

Total number of American CEOs  chosen=12

a. The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=12C_0(0.20)^0(0.80)^{12}

Using binomial theorem nC_r(1-p)^{n-r}p^r

The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}(0.8)^{12}=(0.8)^{12}

b.The probability that at least two can transact business in a foreign language=1-P(x=0)-p(x=1)=1-((0.8)^{12}+12C_1(0.8)^{11}(0.2))=1-((0.8)^{12}+12(0.8)^{11}}(0.2))

c.The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=12C_{12}(0.8)^0(0.2)^{12}

The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{12!}(0.2)^{12}=(0.2)^{12}

You are given g(x)=4x^2 + 2x and
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

324

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

g(x)=4x^2+2x\\ \\f(x)=\int\limits^x_0 {g(t)} \, dt

Find:

f(6)

First, find f(x):

f(x)\\ \\=\int\limits^x_0 {g(t)} \, dt\\ \\=\int\limits^x_0 {(4t^2+2t)} \, dt\\ \\=\left(4\cdot \dfrac{t^3}{3}+2\cdot \dfrac{t^2}{2}\right)\big|\limits^x_0\\ \\=\left(\dfrac{4t^3}{3}+t^2\right)\big|\limits^x_0\\ \\= \left(\dfrac{4x^3}{3}+x^2\right)-\left(\dfrac{4\cdot 0^3}{3}+0^2\right)\\ \\=\dfrac{4x^3}{3}+x^2

Now,

f(6)\\ \\=\dfrac{4\cdot 6^3}{3}+6^2\\ \\=288+36\\ \\=324

Suppose y varies inversely as x, and y=25 when x=3. Find x when y=15
malfutka [58]

Answer:

If

y

varies inversely as

x

then

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

c

for some constant

c

We are told when

x

=

2

then

y

=

15

So

XXX

2

⋅

15

=

c

XXX

⇒

c

=

30

and

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

30

Therefore when

y

=

3

XXX

x

⋅

3

=

30

XXX

→

x

=

10
