Answer:

a) P(X=0) = 500C0 (0.03)^0 (1-0.03)^{500-0} = 2.43x10^{-7}

b) E(X)= n*p = 500*0.03=15

c) P(X>2) = 1-P(X\leq 2)=0.99996

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".

Solution to the problem

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

X \sim Binom(n=500, p=0.03)

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!}

Part a

We want this probability:

P(X=0)

Using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=0) = 500C0 (0.03)^0 (1-0.03)^{500-0} = 2.43x10^{-7}

Part b

The expected number are:

E(X)= n*p = 500*0.03=15

Part c

We want this probability:

P(X>2) = 1-P(X\leq 2)

And we can find the individual probabilities and we got:

P(X=0) = 500C0 (0.03)^0 (1-0.03)^{500-0} = 2.43x10^{-7}

P(X=1) = 500C1 (0.03)^1 (1-0.03)^{500-1} = 3.76x10^{-6}

P(X=2) = 500C2 (0.03)^2 (1-0.03)^{500-2} = 2.90x10^{-5}

And after replace we got:

P(X>2) = 1-P(X\leq 2)=0.99996

A train leaves at 11:32 and arrives at 13:24. It travelled at an average speed of 85 km/h.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<h2>33.2Km</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Time used for journey = </h3>

13 : 24 - 11 : 32 = 1 : 92

1 : 92 = 1 hour 92 minutes

1 hour 92 minutes = 2 hours 32 minutes

<h3>changing 32 minutes to hours</h3>

1 h = 60 min

x = 32 min

x= 32 /60

x= 8/15 hours

<h3>Adding the 2hours to 8/15 hours</h3>

8/15 h + 2 h = 38 / 15

<h3>Using formula for distance</h3>

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 85km / h × 38 /15 h

Distance = 33.15 km

To 1DP = 33.2

Tema [17]

Answer:

For mileages higher than 80 miles Company A  will charge less than Company B

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality:

Company A charges $111 and allows unlimited mileage.

Company A =111

Company B has an initial fee of $55 and charges an additional $0.70 for every mile driven

Company B = 55+0.70m

Where m is the number of miles.

Company A has to charge less than Company B

a<b

111 < 55+0.70m

Solving for m

111-55 < 0.70 m

56 < 0.70m

56/0.70 < m

80 < m  

For mileages higher than 80 miles Company A will charge less than Company B
