Answer:

Equation 0.5 + 1.75(x) = 4

x = 2movies

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

movie night will last for 4 hours

each movie take 1.75 hours

time for eating popcorn 0.5 hours

To find,

number of movies which can be watched

<h2>Equation</h2><h2>0.5 + 1.75(x) = 4</h2><h2>Solve for x</h2><h3>1.75(x) = 4 - 0.5</h3><h3>1.75(x) = 3.5</h3><h3>x = 3.5/1.75</h3><h3>x = 2 </h3>

So, total number of movies which could be watched in 4hr = 2

Answer:

a) $P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

b) $E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

c) $Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

d) $P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=4, p=1-0.25=0.75)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

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

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Part a

$P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

Part b

The expected value is givn by:

$E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

Part c

For the standard deviation we have this:

$Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

Part d

For this case the sample size needs to be higher or equal to 9. Since we need a value such that:

$P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

We can verify this using the following code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(3,9,0.75,TRUE)" and we got 0.99 and the condition is satisfied.

Answer:

∠C = 80 ° ; ∠ T = 40°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle CRS is isosceles because it has two sides of equal length. (CR and CS are radii).

An isosceles triangle has also two equal angles, which means that ∠CRS= ∠CSR.

Therefore, ∠C = 80 ° (180° – 50° - 50°) because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

∠C is the central angle of the arc RS.

∠ T is the inscribed angle of the arc RS.

An inscribed angle is half of a central angle that subtends the same arc on the circle, so the inscribed angle ∠ T is half of the central angle ∠C. Since ∠C = 80 °, we can easily determine the measure of ∠ T:

80° divided by 2 is 40°.
