Answer:

a) P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.2573

b)  P(X=0) = 12C0 (0.24)^0 (1-0.24)^{12-0}= 0.037

P(X=1) = 12C1 (0.24)^1 (1-0.24)^{12-1}= 0.1407

P(X=2) = 12C2 (0.24)^2 (1-0.24)^{12-2}= 0.2573

P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.1828

And after replace we got:

P( X \geq 4) = 1-0.6795 = 0.3205

c) P(X=0) = 12C0 (0.24)^0 (1-0.24)^{12-0}= 0.037

P(X=1) = 12C1 (0.24)^1 (1-0.24)^{12-1}= 0.1407

P(X=2) = 12C2 (0.24)^2 (1-0.24)^{12-2}= 0.2573

P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.1828

P(X=4) = 12C4 (0.24)^4 (1-0.24)^{12-4}= 0.1828

P(X=5) = 12C5 (0.24)^5 (1-0.24)^{12-5}= 0.092

P(X=6) = 12C6 (0.24)^6 (1-0.24)^{12-6}= 0.034

P(X=7) = 12C7 (0.24)^6 (1-0.24)^{12-7}= 0.00921

And we got:

P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

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".  

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=12, p=0.24)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

For this case we can use the mass function and we got:

P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.2573

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \geq 4)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X \geq 4) = 1-P(X

And we can find the individual probabilites and we got:

P(X=0) = 12C0 (0.24)^0 (1-0.24)^{12-0}= 0.037

P(X=1) = 12C1 (0.24)^1 (1-0.24)^{12-1}= 0.1407

P(X=2) = 12C2 (0.24)^2 (1-0.24)^{12-2}= 0.2573

P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.1828

And after replace we got:

P( X \geq 4) = 1-0.6795 = 0.3205

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X

We can find the individual probabilites and we got:

P(X=0) = 12C0 (0.24)^0 (1-0.24)^{12-0}= 0.037

P(X=1) = 12C1 (0.24)^1 (1-0.24)^{12-1}= 0.1407

P(X=2) = 12C2 (0.24)^2 (1-0.24)^{12-2}= 0.2573

P(X=3) = 12C3 (0.24)^3 (1-0.24)^{12-3}= 0.1828

P(X=4) = 12C4 (0.24)^4 (1-0.24)^{12-4}= 0.1828

P(X=5) = 12C5 (0.24)^5 (1-0.24)^{12-5}= 0.092

P(X=6) = 12C6 (0.24)^6 (1-0.24)^{12-6}= 0.034

P(X=7) = 12C7 (0.24)^6 (1-0.24)^{12-7}= 0.00921

And we got:

P(X

If you need help for all 3 questions then ok.
Here’s what you need to do. If they give you a rectangular prism with a side length of #, that number is the length, width and height. I’ll help you for the first picture. They asked how many cubic blocks with a SIDE LENGTH of 1/7 in can fill in a cube with the SIDE LENGTH of 3/7 in. Here is your equation: (3/7 x 3/7 x 3/7) / (1/7 x 1/7 x 1/7). That’s how you solve it. (The slash stands for division.) Now do the same thing with the other pictures. They will ask you how many blocks with a side length of # can fill in a prism with the length, width, and height (or just a side length without saying the l, w and h.) Hopefully this helped! If I got it wrong or if you need help cause you didn’t get what I mean, let me know.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a horizontal translation on the x-axis, it means the translation in question would be affecting only the x component of our function

With respect to the question, what we have here is that we are going to take out some values from x (or add some values) to it

Thus;

f(x) = x^2 would be;

g(x) = (x-4)^2

Corresponding to a shift to the right of upto 4 units on the x axis

What is the value of 36x-8y^2 when x=3 and y= -6?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

-6 gets canceled out because it gets squared. When you square a number, you multiply it by itself. Any negative number times a negative number results in a positive number. So instead of -36 its just 36
