As part of a promotion for a new type of cracker, free trial samples are offered to shoppers in a local supermarket. The probabi

lity that a shopper will buy a packet of crackers after tasting the free sample is 0.200. Different shoppers can be regarded as independent trials. If X is the number among the next 100 shoppers who buy a packet of crackers after tasting a free sample, then X has approximately an

Answer: N(20, 4) distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal approximation to Binomial :

The normal approximation is used for binomial distribution having parameters n and p as

\mu=np\\\\ \sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

if x is the random variable then x has N(\mu, \sigma).

Given : As part of a promotion for a new type of cracker, free trial samples are offered to shoppers in a local supermarket.

The probability that a shopper will buy a packet of crackers after tasting the free sample : p=0.20.

Different shoppers can be regarded as independent trials.

if X is the number among the next 100 shoppers who buy a packet of crackers after tasting a free sample.

Then, Mean and standard deviation for x will be :

\mu=(100)(0.20)=20\\\\ \sigma=\sqrt{20(1-0.20)}=\sqrt{16}=4

i.e. X has approximately an  N(20, 4) distribution.

Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations are given to us. And we need to solve them . The given system is

\begin{cases} y = 2x - 3\dots 1 \\ y = x^2 - 3\dots 2 \end{cases}

We numbered the equations here . Now put the value of equation 1 in equation 2 that is substituting y = 2x - 3 in eq. 2 .

\implies y = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies 2x - 3 = x^2 - 3 \\\\\implies x^2 - 2x = 0 \\\\\implies x(x-2) = 0 \\\\\implies\red{ x = 0 , 2 }

We got two values of x as 0 & 2 . Alternatively substituting these values we have ,

\implies y = 2 x - 3 \\\\\implies y = 2(0)-3 \qquad or \qquad y = 2(2)-3 \\\\\implies y = 0-3 \qquad or \qquad 4 - 3 \\\\\implies \red{ y = -3 , 1 }

Thefore the required answer is ,

\red{Option\:c} \begin{cases} (0,-3) \\ (2,1) \end{cases}
