Answer:

A) 2

B) 0.239

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Expected value of a binomial distribution is the number of trials times the probability of success.

X = np

Given X = 1 and p = 0.65:

1 = 0.65n

n = 1.54

Rounding up, a salesperson should expect 2 customers until he finds a customer that makes a purchase.

Part B) Use binomial probability.

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

Given n = 3, r = 1, p = 0.65, q = 0.35.

P = ₃C₁ 0.65¹ 0.35³⁻¹

P ≈ 0.239

Or, using binompdf function in a calculator:

binompdf(n, p, r)

= binompdf(3, 0.65, 1)

≈ 0.239

Answer:

504

step by step : 14x18=252. 20x18=360. 18x18=324. 58x18=1044. 71x18= 1278. 36x18=648. 28x18=504.

Arrange the data in an ascending order and the median is the middle value. If the number of values is an even number, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers.

Ahhhh help everyone help me solve this ....​
vovangra [49]

Answer:

y =  \frac{18 {w}^{2}  {x}^{2}  {z}^{2} }{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3wx}{ \sqrt{2y} }  =  \frac{5}{2z}  \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}  \times 5 = 3wx \times 2z \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}   \times 5 = 6wxz \\  \\  \sqrt{2y}  =  \frac{6wxz}{5}  \\  \\  {( \sqrt{2y} })^{2}  =  {( \frac{6wxz}{5} })^{2}  \\  \\ 2y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2} {z}^{2}   }{25}  \\  \\  \\  y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}  {z}^{2}  }{25}  \div 2 \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2} {z}^{2}   }{25}  \times  \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{36 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}  {z}^{2}  }{50}  \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{18 {w}^{2} {x}^{2}   {z}^{2} }{25}
