Answer:

a-b+2b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

collect like terms

2a-a-b+5b^2-3b^2

a-b+2b^2

Answer:

a+2b²-b (correct order is 2b²+a-b)

Step-by-step explanation:

combine like terms ( terms with the same variable and are to the same power) so thats 5b² and -3b² and 2a and -a. the -b doesnt have any like terms so leave that alone for now. combine like terms 5b²-3b² is 2b² and 2a-a is a. so you have 2b²+a and plug in the -b so you get 2b²+a-b.

Check the picture below, let's use those two points on the line to get its slope.

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{3}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{0}}}\implies \cfrac{2}{2}\implies 1

16. A telemarketer makes six phone calls per hour and is able to make a sale on 30% of these contacts. During the next two hours
Reika [66]

Answer:

a) 23.11% probability of making exactly four sales.

b) 1.38% probability of making no sales.

c) 16.78% probability of making exactly two sales.

d) The mean number of sales in the two-hour period is 3.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each phone call, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a sale is made, or it is not. The probability of a sale being made in a call is independent from other calls. 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.

A telemarketer makes six phone calls per hour and is able to make a sale on 30% of these contacts. During the next two hours, find:

Six calls per hour, 2 hours. So

n = 2*6 = 12

Sale on 30% of these calls, so p = 0.3

a. The probability of making exactly four sales.

This is P(X = 4).

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

P(X = 4) = C_{12,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.2311

23.11% probability of making exactly four sales.

b. The probability of making no sales.

This is P(X = 0).

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

P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.0138

1.38% probability of making no sales.

c. The probability of making exactly two sales.

This is P(X = 2).

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

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.1678

16.78% probability of making exactly two sales.

d. The mean number of sales in the two-hour period.

The mean of the binomia distribution is

E(X) = np

So

E(X) = 12*0.3 = 3.6

The mean number of sales in the two-hour period is 3.6.
