Answer:

the formula for a function d(x) that describes the distance is d(x)=\sqrt{101x^{2}-24x+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to define final point P_{f}=(2,0), and initial point P_{i}=(x,y)=(x,10x-1), then we can use d=\sqrt{(x_{f}-x_{i})^{2}+(y_{f}-y_{i})^{2}}, so we obtain d(x)=\sqrt{(2-x)^{2}+(0-(10x-1))^{2}}, by developing it d(x)=\sqrt{(2-x)^{2}+(0-(10x-1))^{2}}\\d(x)=\sqrt{4-4x+x^{2}+(1-10x)^{2}}\\d(x)=\sqrt{4-4x+x^{2}+1-20x+100x^{2}}\\d(x)=\sqrt{101x^{2}-24x+5}\\

This formula describes the distance between those two points and involves x

Which experiment describes a binomial experiment?
Jobisdone [24]
You have 4 options:
4 cards: because you draw cards and don't replace them your chance p changes on every trial, so it can't be a binomial experiment
roll 2 dice until...: a binomial experiment must have a consistent amount of trials, by doing an action until some condition is fulfilled violates this as the amount of trials or throws in this case is random
ask 9 people: there are three options, binomial experiments can only have 2

the only option left is the spinner, which is a binomial experiment
