Suppose 85% of all students taking a beginning programming course fail to get their first program to run on first submission. Co

nsider a group of 7 such students,where each student's success is independent from the other and the chance each student fails on their first try is consistent. (Round answers to three decimal places.)
a. What is the probability exactly 6 fail on their first submissions?
b. What is the probability 6 or less fail on their first submissions?
c. What is the probability at least 6 fail on their first submissions?
d. How many students should be expected to fail?
e. What is the standard deviation?

Answer:

a) P(X=6)=(7C6)(0.85)^6 (1-0.85)^{7-6}=0.396

b) P(X\leq 6)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X\leq 6)= 1- P(X>6) = 1-P(X = 7)

P(X=7)=(7C7)(0.85)^7 (1-0.85)^{7-7}=0.321

And replacing we got:

P(x \leq 6) = 1-0.321= 0.679

c) P(X\geq 6)= P(X=6) +P(X=7) = 0.396+0.321= 0.717

d) E(X) = 7*0.85= 5.95

e) \sigma = \sqrt{7*0.85*(1-0.85)}=0.945

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=0.85)

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!}

Part a

We want this probability:

P(X=6)

And using the probability mas function we got:

P(X=6)=(7C6)(0.85)^6 (1-0.85)^{7-6}=0.396

Part b

We want this probability:

P(X\leq 6)

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

P(X\leq 6)= 1- P(X>6) = 1-P(X = 7)

P(X=7)=(7C7)(0.85)^7 (1-0.85)^{7-7}=0.321

And replacing we got:

P(x \leq 6) = 1-0.321= 0.679

Part c

We want this probability:

P(X\geq 6)= P(X=6) +P(X=7) = 0.396+0.321= 0.717

Part d

the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 7*0.85= 5.95

Part e

The standard deviation is given by:

\sigma = \sqrt{7*0.85*(1-0.85)}=0.945

A playground is shaped like a quaderaleteral with all sides 27 feet long, with two angles measures of 65 degrees and two angles
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Rhombus

Step-by-step explanation:

Shape of a playground is a quadrilateral

It is given that  all sides of a quadrilateral are= 27 feet

Since all the sides of a quadrilateral are equal that it can be either a rhombus or it can be a square

Two angle are 65° each

And other two angers are 115° each

65°+ 115°= 180°

It forms a co-interior angle

Hence the quadrilateral is a parallelogram

Since all the four sides of parallelogram are equal, than the given figure must be rhombus

Hence, geomatric shape best describes the shape of the playground is Rhombus.

mixas84 [53]
Let x be number of black markers

4.5x + 2x3.25x + 3x1.98x = 284.24
16.94x = 284.24
x = 16.78 = 17

The person bought 17 black pens, 34 red and 51 green

Range: {-5, 1, 7, 9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

{(6, -5), (-2, 9), (-3, 1), (10, 7), (8, 9)}

✔️Domain:

This includes all the set of the x-values that are in the relation. This includes, 6, -2, -3, 10, and 8.

Thus, the domain can be represented as:

{-2, -3, 6, 8, 10}

✔️Range:

This includes all corresponding y-values in the relation. They are, -5, 1, 7, and 9.

Range can be represented as:

{-5, 1, 7, 9}
