Answer:

0.6889 = 68.89% probability that two independent customers would recommend the consulting company.

0.2822 = 28.22% probability that one of the two customers would recommend the consulting company.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customers, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they would recommend the company to other businesses, or they would not. The customers are independent. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Results showed that 83% of their previous customers would recommend the company to other businesses.

This means that p = 0.83

What is the probability that two independent customers would recommend the consulting company? Round to four decimal places. (1 point)

This is P(X = 2)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.83)^{2}.(0.17)^{0} = 0.6889

68.89% probability that two independent customers would recommend the consulting company

What is the probability that one of the two customers would recommend the consulting company [P(A or B)]? Round to four decimal places. (1 point)

This is P(X = 1)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}.(0.83)^{1}.(0.17)^{1} = 0.2822

28.22% probability that one of the two customers would recommend the consulting company.

Sal recorded the number of crackers in each snack-sized package he opened. Which statement must be true according to the box plo
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The data is skewed, and the lowest number of crackers in a package was 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

First of all, since the question was incomplete due to the missing capture of the range shown on the box plot. I attached it for you so I could answer your question as well.

Taking into consideration the attached image's information, symmetric would be right down the middle, but it is not.

The image shows that it is <em>positively skewed with the lowest number being 7.</em>

A box contains 8 red markers, 5 green markers, and 5 blue markers. Once a marker is pulled from the box, it is replaced, and the
Andru [333]

Well. add all of these up 8+5+5. we know 5+5 is 10. and 10+8 is 18. so 18 is the denominator.  There are 8 red markers and 5 blue markers at 8 and 5 up. 8+5 is 13 right? So the numerator will be 13.  but the probability of picking a blue then a red is 13 alone or if you are ask for out of the amount of markers there are, its 13/18. so the probability is 13 or 13/18.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP I DON'T UNDERSTAND AND IT'S DUE TMRW
zmey [24]

The answer to the above math expression is . See the computation below.

<h3>What is the calculation justifying the above?</h3>

First we solve for the numerator. The numerator is:

7√2 - 2√16

Where:

7√2 = 9.89949493661; and

2√16 = 8

Hence,

7√2 - 2√16 = 1.89949493661

Next we solve for the denominator. This is given as:

3√8=8.48528137424

Hence,

(7√2 - 2√16)/3√8 = 1.89949493661/8.48528137424

= 0.22385762508

$\approx$ 0.224
