So the answer is <span>–1.8 +0.9 –1.4 +0.4
or C. -1.9</span>
This is a problem in "binomial probability." Either the archer hits his target or he does not. This experiment is performed 5 times (so that n=5), and the probability that the archer will hit the target is 0.7 (so that p=0.7).
We need to find the binomial probability that x=3 when the possible outcomes are {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
You could use a table of binomial probabilities to evaluate the following:
P(5, 0.7, 3).
Alternatively, you could use a TI-83 or TI-84 calculator and its built-in "binompdf( " function.
I evaluated binompdf(5,0.7,3) and obtained the result 0.309.
Answer:
Number of offices in the building = 115
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total number of offices.
Then 80% x= 92 or 80/100 * x =92
Hence, x = 92*100/80 = 9200/80= 115
