Lynna [10]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Oldest friend=X+2; Middle friend=X+1; Youngest friend=X

X+(X+1)+(X+2)=180

3X+3=180 Subtract 3 from each side.

3X=177 Divide each side by 3

X=59 Youngest friend is 59.

X+2=59+2=61 ANSWER: Oldest friend is 61.

X+2=59+1=60 Middle friend is 60.

CHECK:

Sum is 180

59+60+61=180

180=180

Probability of answering 8 or more questions correctly ;

Direct sum:

P(x ≥ 8) = p(8) + p(9) + p(10)

P(≥ 8) = 0.00038624 + 0.00002861 + 0.00000095

= 0.0004158

Complement :

P(x ≥ 8) = 1 - p(x ≤ 7)

1 - [p(7) + p(6) + p(5) + p(4) + p(3) + p(2) + p(1) + p(0)]

1 - [0.00308990 + 0.01622200 + 0.05839920 + 0.14599800 + 0.25028229 + 0.28156757 + 0.18771172 + 0.05631351]

1 - 0.99958419

= 0.00041581
