It represents a geometric sequence because it has a common ratio of 2.

In fact, a sequence is said to be geometric if any two adjacent elements are in the same ratio. In other words, if you choose any index n \in \mathbb{N} and consider the two consecutive terms a_n and a_{n+1}, you have

\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} = r

no matter which index you chose. In your case, the next term in the sequence is always the double of the previous one, so the ratio between two consecutive terms is always 2, and the series is geometric with common ratio 2

9. An express delivery service advertises next-day delivery of any parcel it receives before 3PM. The actual success rate is 90%
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) P(X =16 ) = 0.1853

b) P(X \leq 12) = 0.0684

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

n = 16

p = 0.90

from relation given probabllity can be solve

P(X) = ^nC_x * p^x * ( 1 - p)^{n-x}

a)

P(X =16 ) = ^{16}C_{16} * 0.90^x * ( 1 - 0.90)^{16-16}

P(X =16 ) = 0.1853

b) P(X \leq 12) = 1 - P(X \geq 13)

= 1 - [ P(X = 13) +P(X = 14) +P(X = 15) +P(X = 16) ]

= 1 - [ ^{16}C_{13} * 0.90^{13} * (1 - 0.90)^3 +^{16}C_{14} * 0.90^{14} * (1 - 0.90)^2 +^{16}C_{15} * 0.90^{15} * (1 - 0.90)^1 +^{16}C_{16} * 0.90^{16} * (1 - 0.90)^0 ]

= 0.0684
