Both of these conditions must be true in order for the assumption that the binomial distribution is approximately normal. In other words, if np \ge 5 and nq \ge 5 then we can use a normal distribution to get a good estimate of the binomial distribution. If either np or nq is smaller than 5, then a normal distribution wouldn't be a good model to use.

side note: q = 1-p is the complement of probability p

Find x if AB = 9, BC = 2x - 5,<br> and AC = x + 9
Oxana [17]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that line segments AB and BC are parts of the whole line segment AC, we can write the following equation:

AB + BC = AC

Now, using the given values, we can substitute in for the equation and solve for x:

AB + BC = AC

9 + 2x - 5 = x + 9

2x + 4 = x + 9

x = 5

Thus, we have found that for these sets of equations for these line segments, our value for x should be 5.

Cheers.

Let A= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}. Suppose an element of A is randomly selected. What is the probability that it belongs to
gregori [183]
<h3>Answer:  3/5</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

The set {1, 2}U{2, 6, 7, 9}U{5, 6, 7} simplifies to {1,2,5,6,7,9} after we combine everything and sort the values. We toss any duplicates.

Let B = {1,2,5,6,7,9}

There are 6 items in set B out of 10 items in set A.

The probability of landing in set B, if you pick something randomly from A, is 6/10 = 3/5
