8 0

Answer:

n = 13/3

n = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2n + 5 = 5n - 8

2n - 5n = - 8 - 5

- 3n = - 13

- n = - 13/3

n = 13/3

12n - 6 = 0

12n = 0 + 6

12n = 6

n = 6/12

n = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The proportion of gambling addicts : p=0.30

Let x be the binomial variable that represents the number of persons are gambling addicts.

with parameter p=0.30 , n= 10

Using Binomial formula ,

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

The required probability = $P(x>5)=P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)\\\\=^{10}C_6(0.3)^6(0.7)^{4}+^{10}C_7(0.3)^7(0.7)^{3}+^{10}C_8(0.3)^8(0.7)^{2}+^{10}C_9(0.3)^9(0.7)^{1}+^{10}C_{10}(0.3)^{10}(0.7)^{0}\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{4!6!}(0.3)^6(0.7)^{4}+\dfrac{10!}{3!7!}(0.3)^7(0.7)^{3}+\dfrac{10!}{2!8!}(0.3)^8(0.7)^{2}+\dfrac{10!}{9!1!}(0.3)^9(0.7)^{1}+(1)(0.3)^{10}\\\\=0.0473489874\approx0.0473$
