8. Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the

1 answer:

8 0

Y - 3 = 8/3(x + 2)...the slope here is 8/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3/8

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -3/8
(-2,3)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 3
now we sub
y - 3 = - 3/8(x - (-2)...not done yet
y - 3 = -3/8(x + 2) <===

What is the formula for the expected number of successes in a binomial experiment with n trials and probability of success p? C

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

$(D)E[ X ] =np.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a binomial experiment with n trials and probability of success p,

$f(x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\right)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}, 0\leq x\leq n$

$E(X)=\sum_{x=0}^{n}xf(x)= \sum_{x=0}^{n}x\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\right)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Since each term of the summation is multiplied by x, the value of the term corresponding to x = 0 will be 0. Therefore the expected value becomes:

$E(X)=\sum_{x=1}^{n}x\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\x\end{array}\right)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Now,

$x\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\x\end{array}\right)= \frac{xn!}{x!(n-x)!}=\frac{n!}{(x-)!(n-x)!}=\frac{n(n-1)!}{(x-1)!((n-1)-(x-1))!}=n\left(\begin{array}{c}n-1\\x-1\end{array}\right)$
