Answer:  The required probability is 0.07351.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that X is a binomial variable with n = 9 and p = 0.3.

We are given to compute the probability P(X = 5) and round the answer to five decimal places.

We know that

the binomial distribution formula for P(X = r) with n number of trials is given by

P(X=r)=^nC_rp^rq^{n-r},~~\textup{where }q=1-p.

According to the given information, we have

n = 9,  p = 0.3   and   q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7.

Therefore, we get

P(X=5)\\\\=^9C_5(0.3)^5(0.7)^{9-5}\\\\\\=\dfrac{9!}{5!(9-5)!}(0.3)^5(0.7)^4\\\\\\=\dfrac{9\times8\times7\times6\times5!}{5!\times4\times3\times2\times1}\times0.00273\times.2401\\\\=126\times0.000583443\\\\=0.073513818.

Rounding to five decimal places, we get

P(X=5) = 0.07351.

Thus, the required probability is 0.07351.

There are 418 students at a school. Han estimates that they each drink about 5 glasses of water each day.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) together, they all drink about 2,090 glasses of water in one day. (418 * 5 = 2,090).

b) 2,090 * 7 (7 days in 1 week) = They drink about 14,630 glasses of water in one week.

c) 14,630 * 4 (4 weeks in 1 month) = About 58,520 glasses of water in one month.

d) 1,000,000/58,520 ≈ 17. It would take all of the students about 17 months to drink 1,000,000 glasses of water.

Hope that helps!

Do the following side lengths form a triangle?<br><br> 6, 18, 14
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditions for the sides to form a triangle is that sum of any two sides should be greater than the third side.

6 + 18 = 24

24 > 14

18 + 14 = 32

32 > 6

6 + 14 = 20

20 > 18

Therefore,

sides 6, 18 and 14 forms a triangle.
