Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The number of papers expected to be handed in before receiving each possible grade at least once is 14.93.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question , we note that it is a geometric distribution question which have equal probabilities and therefore is a form of Binomial distribution with Bernoulli trials, where we are conducting the trials till we have r successes

Since we have r = 6, we will have to find the expected value of the number of trials till the nth paper handed in receives a previously awarded grade.

We therefore have,

The Probability that out of six papers turned 5 are different scores is given by

P(Y=5) = p'= q⁵p = (1-p)⁵p = 3125/46656

Therefore p' = the probability of receiving different grades once then the expected value is given by

E(X)  = 1/p' = 46656/3125 = 14.93.

Hi! I was wondering, how do you find the rise and the run of slopes? <br><br> I am new to it.
inna [77]

Answer:

M = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, look at a graph of a line and find two points, 1 and 2. You can use any two points on a line. The slope will be the same between any two points on a straight line.

Note the X and Y value for each of the points.

Now we'll designate the X and Y value for points 1 and 2. We'll use subscripts to identify them in the slope formula.


Hope this helps!

Given that,

Total number of students in the class is 42

We need to find the percentage of the class chose pizza. There are 22 student who like to have pizza. Required percentage is given by :

P=\dfrac{22}{42}\times 100\\\\P=52.38\%

So, 52.38% of students chose pizza.
