You eliminate or ‘take away’ the answers that you know or think that r wrong. The last answer that’s left is your answer.

Find the indicated probability.

Answer:

C) 0.179

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the trials are independent, this is a binomial distribution:

Recall:

Binomial Distribution --> $P(k)={n\choose k}p^kq^{n-k}$
$P(k)$ denotes the probability of $k$ successes in $n$ independent trials
$p^k$ denotes the probability of success on each of $k$ trials
$q^{n-k}$ denotes the probability of failure on the remaining $n-k$ trials
${n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}$ denotes all possible ways to choose $k$ things out of $n$ things

Given:

$n=10$
$k=4$
$p^k=0.53^4$
$q^{n-k}=(1-0.53)^{10-4}=0.47^6$
${n\choose k}={10\choose 4}=\frac{10!}{(10-4)!4!}=210$

Calculate:

$P(4)=(210)(0.53^4)(0.47^6)=0.1786117069\approx0.179$

Therefore, the probability that the archer will get exactly 4 bull's-eyes with 10 arrows in any order is 0.179

During a fundraiser, Ms. Dawson’s class raised $560, which is 25% more than Mr. Casey’s class raised. How much money did Mr. Cas

evablogger [386]

Answer:

$420

Step-by-step explanation:

To work this out you would need to find the 25% decrease of 560. To do this you would first divide 25 by 100, which gives you 0.25. Then you would minus 0.25 from 1, which gives you 0.75. This is because when finding percentage decreases you would first have to convert it into a decimal. Then you would have to minus it from 1 , to make sure that it will be a 25% decrease not a 75% decrease. Then you would multiply 560 by 0.75, which gives you 420.

1) Divide 25 by 100.

$25/100=0.25$
