Answer:

The answer is 46/512 = 0.08984375

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, success means to get an odd number on rolling a die.

The probability of success p = 3/6 = 1/2

So                                             p = 1/2

Now lets find probability of failure q

q = 1 - p = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

So                                             q = 1/2

Let X  = x denotes the number of success in  n  trials.

So X  is a Binomial Random Variable

Which has the following parameters:

                                                n  = 9

as the fair die is rolled nine times and

                                                p = 1/2

Now the Probability of  x  success out of  n  trials P( X = x) is:

P(X = x) = p(x) =  nCx pˣ , qⁿ⁻ˣ , x= 0,1,2,...,9

P(X = x) = p(x) = nCx (1/2)⁹ = ₉Cₓ (1/2)⁹ = ₉Cₓ /512

Since the required probability is P (X < 3) So

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P( X = 1) + P(X = 2)

             = 1 / 512 {₉C₀ + ₉C₁ + ₉C₂}                             nCr = n! / r! * (n - r)!

           

             = 1 / 512{ (9! / 0! * (9 - 0)!) + (9! / 1! * (9 - 1)!) + (9! / 2! * (9 - 2)!) }

             = 1 / 512 { 1 + 9 + 36 }

             = 46 / 512 =  0.08984375

So the required probability is 46/512

Can someone answer plz
NeX [460]

1.D 2. A 3.C 4.D

1 Is the monomial as it only contains one expression.

2. Is the difference of squares because something squared minus something squared.

3. Is standard because it is of the form

a_nx^n+ a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

4. We know D is the not the monomial simply because its power is negative which means it does not fit the definition of a polynomial.

another rectangle has length and width in the ratio of 3:2. If the length is increased by eight and the width is increased by 50
Andreyy89

Answer:

Area of the new rectangle  = 148.8 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the dimensions of the rectangle then the

Perimeter of the Original rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                   = 2 ( 3x+2x) = 2(5x)= 10xcm

If the length is increased by eight the new length would be 3x+ 8

and width would be 2x+x= 3x after 50 % increase

Perimeter of the new rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                     = 2 ( 3x+8 +3x)

                                                       = 2 (6x+8)

                                                       = 12x + 16

Ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is

             New perimeter :   Original perimeter

                8                      : 5

           12x+ 16                   : 10x cm

80x= 60x + 16

20x= 16

x= 16/20= 4/5

Putting the value of length and breadth in place of x

Area of the new rectangle = L*B =  3 * (4/5) +8 *3(4/5)=

                                                                 = 12+ 40/5 * 12/5

                                                                   = 62/5* 12/5

                                                                     = 744/5

                                                                   = 148.8 cm square
