Sveta_85 [38]

Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

0.3675 = 36.75% probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds.

0.1673 = 16.73% probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds.

Since P(X > 7) < 0.05, it would be unusual if more than 7 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.

<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.

The values of the parameters for this problem are:

n = 10, p = 0.4.

The probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds is:

$P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4)$

In which:

$P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)$

Then:

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.4)^{0}.(0.6)^{10} = 0.0061$

$P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.4)^{1}.(0.6)^{9} = 0.0403$

$P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.4)^{2}.(0.6)^{8} = 0.1209$

$P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.4)^{3}.(0.6)^{7} = 0.2150$

$P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.4)^{4}.(0.6)^{6} = 0.2502$

Hence:

$P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0061 + 0.0403 + 0.1209 + 0.2150 + 0.2502 = 0.6325$

$P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4) = 1 - 0.6325 = 0.3675$

0.3675 = 36.75% probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds.

The probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds is:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0061 + 0.0403 + 0.1209 = 0.1673

0.1673 = 16.73% probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds.

For more than 7, the probability is:

$P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

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

$P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.4)^{8}.(0.6)^{2} = 0.0106$

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.4)^{9}.(0.6)^{1} = 0.0016$

$P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.4)^{10}.(0.6)^{0} = 0.0001$

Since P(X > 7) < 0.05, it would be unusual if more than 7 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.

Bly makes fleece scarves and sells them for $11 each. The supplies cost her $5 per scarf. Last month, Bly had a profit of $139.

seraphim [82]

Bly sold 29 scarves last month

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of scarves sold

Bly made 7 more scarves than she sold

Then, number of scarves made = x + 7

Bly makes fleece scarves and sells them for $11 each

Thus for selling "x" scraves , he will get 11x dollars

Total sales revenue = 11x

number of scarves made = x + 7

The supplies cost her $5 per scarf

Therefore, cost for scarves made = 5(x + 7)

Therefore,

profit = Total sales revenue - cost for scarves made

profit = 11x - 5(x + 7)

profit = 11x - 5x - 35

profit = 6x - 35

Last month, Bly had a profit of $139

139 = 6x - 35

6x = 174

x = 29

Thus Bly sold 29 scarves last month

1. The curve y = (x - 1)(x – 5) cuts the x-axis at A and B and the y-axis at C.

saveliy_v [14]

So the first two questions are asking for points of intercept. a is asking where the function crosses the x, in this case it is where y=0. So your x intercept is at x= 1,5. Then to find the y intercept it is where x=0, so just substitute 0 for x. Then you get your y intercept as y=5. Because your coefficient for the quadratic function is positive your function has a minimum since it opens upward. I’m not sure what is means by C coordinate, but your vertex is at (3,-4) and lime of symmetry is at x=3.

X intercepts: (1,0) and (5,0)
Y intercept: (0,5)

Which statements about the hyperbola are true? check all that apply. the center is located at (0, 0). there is a vertex at (–6,

Vinvika [58]

The statements about the hyperbola are true are:

The center is located at (0, 0).
There is a vertex at (–6, 0).
The directrices are vertical lines.

<h3>What is a hyperbola?</h3>

It should be noted that a hyperbola simply means a open curve that has two branches.

Here, the center is located at (0, 0), there is a vertex at (–6, 0), and the directrices are vertical lines.
