Answer:

P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)

And we can find the individual probabilities:

P(X=6)=(7C6)(0.91)^6 (1-0.91)^{7-6}=0.358

P(X=7)=(7C7)(0.91)^7 (1-0.91)^{7-7}=0.517

And replacing we got:

P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)= 0.358+0.517=0.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=7, p=1-0.09=0.91)

The probability associated to a failure would be p =1-0.09 = 0.91

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

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

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And we want to find this probability:

P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)

And we can find the individual probabilities:

P(X=6)=(7C6)(0.91)^6 (1-0.91)^{7-6}=0.358

P(X=7)=(7C7)(0.91)^7 (1-0.91)^{7-7}=0.517

And replacing we got:

P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)= 0.358+0.517=0.875

Answer:

Table I fill-in: 1.404

Table II fill-in: 1.661 (instead of the 2 that's there)

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions shown in Table I and II are inverses of each other. This means that the x's for Table I are the y's in Table II. And the y's in Table I are the x's in Table II.

So look at Table II, there is a coordinate pair

(7, 1.404). Switch the x and y and you get (1.404,7) That's your answer to fill in on Table I.

Write a system of equations

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 15

3x - y = 20

5x = 35

x = 7

2(7) + y =15

y = 1
