White raven [17]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.4096 = 40.96% probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

Considering that there are 4 questions, and each has 5 choices, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 4, p = 1/5 = 0.2.

The probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions is P(X = 1), hence:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.4096

0.4096 = 40.96% probability that he answers exactly 1 question correctly in the last 4 questions.

Find the missing value of x and y.
scoray [572]

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 60 = 21 ÷ y

1.73 = 21 ÷ y

y = 21 ÷ 1.73

y = 12.14

tan 30 = x÷ 12

0.6 x 12 = x

x = 7.2
