Shadow problems are usually solved with a proportion.
.. oak/(oak's shadow) = joey/(joey's shadow)
.. oak/(12 ft) = (6 ft)/(5 ft)
.. oak = (12 ft)*(6/5) = 14.4 ft . . . . . . . matches selection B

Exhibit 5-8 The student body of a large university consists of 60% female students. A random sample of 8 students is selected. R

Answer:

P(X=2)=0.04129

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability problem whose function is expressed as;

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p){n-x}

-Given that p=0.6, n=8 , the probability that among the students in the sample exactly two are female is calculated as:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}\\\\P(X=2)={8\choose2}0.6^2(1-0.6)^6\\\\=0.04129

Hence, the probability of exactly two females is 0.04129
