Question 4 of 10, Step 1 of 1 1/out of 10 Correct Certify Completion Icon Tries remaining:0 The Magazine Mass Marketing Company

Answer:

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each entry form, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it includes an order, or it does not. The probability of an entry including an order is independent of any other entry, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

The Magazine Mass Marketing Company has received 16 entries in its latest sweepstakes.

This means that $n = 16$

They know that the probability of receiving a magazine subscription order with an entry form is 0.5.

This means that $p = 0.5$

What is the probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order?

At most 3 including an order, which is:

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

In which

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{16,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{16} \approx 0$

$P(X = 1) = C_{16,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 2) = C_{16,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{14} = 0.0018$

$P(X = 3) = C_{16,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{13} = 0.0085$

Then

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0 + 0.0002 + 0.0018 + 0.0085 = 0.0105$

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

spayn [35]

Answer:

Start at the y-intercept, (0,-1). Next, go up one and to the right 2, plot a point. Keep going up one and to the right 2 until you reach the end of the graph. Next, go back to your y-intercept. Go down one and to the left 2. Keep going down and to the left until you reach the end of the graph. Connect all points.

The diameter of a sphere with a volume of 12,348 cubic ft is ___ ft.

aniked [119]

Answer:

108.62ft

Step-by-step explanation:

12348=⁴/3×3.14×r²

r²=12348×¾÷3.14

r²=2,949.36

r=squareroot of 2,949.36

r=54.308

d=2r

d=54.308×2

d=108.616
