Part A
Use the binomial probability distribution formula.
p = 0.54 = probability of getting a purple marble
n = 5 = sample size
x = 2 = number of purple we want to get
The 
portion is from the nCr combination formula. The exclamation marks indicate a factorial.
Alternatively, you could use Pascal's Triangle for that portion.
<h3>Answer: 0.283831776</h3>
This decimal value is exact. Round it however you need to.
============================================================
Part B
To find the expected value, aka the mean, we multiply the sample size and probability of getting a purple marble on any single selection.
n*p = 5*0.54 = 2.7
<h3>Answer: 2.7</h3>
Answer:
The numerator must be greater than 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that a certain fraction is greater than 2. Thus, if the numerator and denominator are x and y respectively, then we have;
x/y > 2
We are further told that the denominator is 8.
Thus;
x/8 > 2
Multiply both sides by 8 to give;
x > 16
Thus,the numerator must be greater than 16.
4/(1+3) or
Addition is the first step for two reasons.
1) the Order of Operations requires you do operations in parentheses first
2) the division cannot be performed until you know what you're dividing
Answer:
The daily value for saturated fat is 20g.
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage problems can be solved by rule of three
In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.
When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too. In this case, the rule of three is a cross multiplication.
When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease. In this case, the rule of three is a line multiplication.
A percentage problem is an example where the relationship between the measures is direct.
The problem states that 1g is 5% of the daily value for saturated fat. The daily value(100%) for saturated fat is x, so:
1g - 5%
xg - 100%
5x = 100
x = 20g
The daily value for saturated fat is 20g.
