Answer:

0.9562

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability is mathematically expressed as:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Given that p=0.18, n=5 , is calculated as:

$P(X\leq 2)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)\\\\={5\choose 0}0.18^0(1-0.18)^5+{5\choose 1}0.18^1(1-0.18)^4+{5\choose 2}0.18^2(1-0.18)^3\\\\=0.3707+0.4069+0.1786\\\\=0.9562$

Hence, the probability of no more than 2 successes in 5 trials is 0.9562

A detective has interviewed four witnesses to a crime. From the stories of the witnesses the detective has concluded

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:we should turn the “facts” into logical expressions.

Step 2:Assign variables

Our variables are: b (for butler), c (for cook), g (for gardener), h (for handyman)

Step 3 . Let the value of true indicate that the person is telling the truth. For example, b = T means the butler is telling the truth. Then we can translate the statements as follows:

Step 4

We know all of these must hold. So we really want to know when (b→c)∧¬(c∧g)∧¬(¬g∧¬h)∧(h → ¬c) is true.

Step 5

Behold, another truth table task! If you work out the truth table, you see that this statement is only true when:

Check attachment

Step 6

Therefore we can say the butler and cook are definitely lying, but we can not determine if the gardener or handyman are lying. However, there are four variables in this problem. Instead, we can do this with some straight reasoning. Notice that:

If the butler is telling the truth, then by (a) the cook is telling the truth.

If the cook is telling the truth, then by (b) the gardener is lying.

If the gardener is lying, then by (c) the handyman is telling the truth.

If the handyman is telling the truth, they by (d) the cook is lying.

This leads to a contradiction (the cook can not be both telling the truth and lying)! Therefore the butler and cook must be lying. What about the gardener and the handyman? We don’t have enough information to figure out if they are lying. Since the cook is lying, we can’t use (b) to come to any conclusions about the gardener. Even if we are able to conclude that the gardener is telling the truth, we can’t use (c) to come to any conclusions about the handyman.

Gertrude takes out a $5,500 subsidized stafford loan, which must be paid back in ten years. gertrude will graduate four years af

Leno4ka [110]

The total amount of interest will Gertrude pay by the time the subsidized Stafford loan is repaid is $2094.80.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Compound interest is the amount charged on the principal amount and the accumulated interest with a fixed rate of interest for a time period.

The formula for the final amount with the compound interest formula can be given as,

$A=P\times\left(1+\dfrac{r}{n\times100}\right)^{nt}\\$

Here, A is the final amount (principal plus interest amount) on the principal amount P of with the rate<em> r </em>of in the time period of <em>t.</em>

Gertrude will graduate four years after taking out the loan. if the loan has an interest rate of 6.8%, compounded monthly, and Gertrude makes monthly payments.

Put the values in the above formula as,

$5500=P_{mt}\times\left(1-\dfrac{6.8}{12\times100}\right)^{-12\times10}\\P_{mt}=63.29$

In the 10 years, the refund she gets,

$A_r=63.29\times12\times100\\A_r=7594.8$

Interest paid by her is,

$I=7594.8-5500\\I=2094.8$

Thus, the total amount of interest will Gertrude pay by the time the subsidized Stafford loan is repaid is $2094.80.
