Answer:

The probability the event that none of them are obese is 0.0352.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Binomial distribution:</h3>

A discrete random variable X having to the set {0,1,2,3....,n} as the spectrum, is said to have binomial distribution with parameters n= the number of trial, and p= probability of successes on an individual trial , if the p.m.f of X is given by,

P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\x\end{array}\right) p^x(1-p)^{n-x} for x=0,1,2,...,n

                =0                               elsewhere.

where 0<p<1 and  n an positive integer,

Given that,

The probability of the event that a child living in an urban area in the united state is obese is 20%.

n=Number of children = 15, p= 20%= 0.20.

The probability the event that none of them are obese is

=P(X=0)

=\left(\begin{array}{c}15\\0\end{array}\right) (0.20)^0(1-0.20)^{15-0}

=0.0352

Find the inner product for (7, 2) * (0, -2) and state whether the vectors are perpendicular.
Andrews [41]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inner product of two vectors (a,b) and (c,d) you would use the equation (a * c) + (b * d)

So for (7,2) and (0,-2) the inner product would be

(7 * 0) + (2 * -2)

= 4

The vectors are only perpendicular when the inner product is equal to 0. Since it is equal to -4 in this case, the vectors are not perpendicular.

A -4; no
