<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

We know that the binomial theorem for finding the probability of x success out of a total of n experiments is given  by:

b(x;n;p)=n_C_x\cdot p^x\cdot (1-p)^{n-x}

(a)

b(5; 8, 0.25)

is given by:

8_C_5\cdot (0.25)^5\cdot (1-0.25)^{8-5}\\\\=8_C_5\cdot (0.25)^5\cdot (0.75)^3\\\\=56\cdot (0.25)^5\cdot (0.75)^3\\\\=0.023

                    Hence, the answer is:  0.023

(b)

b(6; 8, 0.65)

i.e. it is calculated by:

=8_C_6\cdot (0.65)^6\cdot (1-0.65)^{8-6}\\\\=8_C_6\cdot (0.65)^6\cdot (0.35)^2\\\\=0.259

              Hence, the answer is: 0.259

(c)

P(3 ≤ X ≤ 5) when n = 7 and p = 0.55

P(3\leq x\leq 5)=P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)

Now,

P(X=3)=7_C_3\cdot (0.55)^3\cdot (1-0.55)^{7-3}\\\\P(X=3)=7_C_3\cdot (0.55)^3\cdot (0.45)^{4}\\\\P(X=3)=0.239

P(X=4)=7_C_4\cdot (0.55)^4\cdot (1-0.55)^{7-4}\\\\P(X=4)=7_C_4\cdot (0.55)^4\cdot (0.45)^{3}\\\\P(X=4)=0.292

P(X=5)=7_C_5\cdot (0.55)^5\cdot (1-0.55)^{7-5}\\\\P(X=3)=7_C_5\cdot (0.55)^5\cdot (0.45)^{2}\\\\P(X=3)=0.214

                                    Hence,

                  P(3\leq x\leq 5)=0.745

(d)

P(1 ≤ X) when n = 9 and p = 0.1 .613

P(1\leq X)=1-P(X=0)

Also,

P(X=0)=9_C_0\cdot (0.1)^{0}\cdot (1-0.1)^{9-0}\\\\i.e.\\\\P(X=0)=1\cdot 1\cdot (0.9)^9\\\\P(X=0)=0.387

i.e.

P(1\leq X)=1-0.387

                     Hence, we get:

                  P(1\leq X)=0.613

KatRina [158]
You need to use the cross product method to find your answer :

1 pizza = 2 ½ cups
3 pizzas = × cups

((2 ½) • 3) ÷ 1 = × cups

7 ½ ÷ 1 = × cups

7 ½ = × cups

⇨ So your answer is: You would need to use 7 ½ cups of flour to make 3 handmade pizzas!

There you go. I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
