Answer:the probability that exactly five customers make a purchase is 0.033

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

p = probability of success

q= probability of failure

n = number of sample

From the information given,

39 percent of all customers who enter a store will make a purchase. It means that the probability of success, p = 39/100 = 0.39

The probability of failure q, would be 1 - p = 1 - 0.39 = 0.61

n = 6

The probability that exactly five customers make a purchase is expressed as

P(x = 5) = 6C5 × 0.61^(6 - 5) × 0.39^5

P(x = 5) = 6 × 0.61× 0.39^5 = 0.033

Vedmedyk [2.9K]
By definition, we have that the conversion of a US gallon to liters is given by:
 1 liter = 3.78541 gallons
 Therefore, we can apply the following rule of three:
 1 liter ---------------------> 3.78541 gallons
 5100 liters --------------> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (5100) * (3.78541)

x = 19305.591
 two significant figures:
 x = 19000

 Answer:
 
The lung capacity of the blue whale is:
 
x = 19000 gallons

According to the fundamental theorem of algebra, how many roots does the polynomial f(x)=x4+3x2+7 have over the complex numbers,
Finger [1]

ANSWER

4 roots.

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial function is

f(x) =  {x}^{4}  + 3 {x}^{2}  + 7

This is a fourth degree polynomial.

According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, an nth degree polynomial has n roots.

This roots include both real and complex roots.

Also repeated roots or roots with multiplicity greater than one are counted as distinct.

Since the given polynomial function is a fourth degree polynomial, the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, says that this polynomial has 4 roots.
