Yes she is correct..
the reason why is because if she gives her horse 2 apples a day for 10 days, she will have spent 20 apples.
and so to get the number of apples she has remaining after 10 days, just subtract 20 from 24:
24-20 = 4
and you get four. That means that after 10 days she will indeed have 4 apples left

Stacy uses a spinner with six equal sections numbered 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to play a game. Write a probability model for this ex

allsm [11]

Answer:

We estimate to have 8.33 times the number 6 in 50 trials.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a success to get a 6. In this case, note that the probability of having a 6 in one spin is 1/6. We can consider the number of 6's in 50 spins to be a binomial random variable. Then, let X to be the number of trials we get a 6 out of 50 trials. Then, we have the following model.

$P(X=k) = \binom{50}{k}(\frac{1}{6})^k(\frac{5}{6})^{50-k}$

We will estimate the number of times that she spins a 6 as the expected value of this random variable.

Recall that if we have X as a binomial random variable of n trials with a probability of success of p, then it's expected value is np.

Then , in this case, with n=50 and p=1/6 we expect to have $\frac{50}{6}$ number of times of having a 6, which is 8.33.
