According to a 2013 study by the Pew Research Center, 15% of adults in the United States do not use the Internet (Pew Research C

enter website, December, 15, 2014). Suppose that 10 adults in the United States are selected randomly.
A. What is the probability that all of the adults use the Internet (to 4 decimals)?

B. What is the probability that 3 of the adults do not use the Internet (to 4 decimals)? If you calculate the binomial probabilities manually, make sure to carry at least 4 decimal digits in your calculations.

C. What is the probability that at least 1 of the adults do not use the Internet (to 4 decimals)?

Answer:

a)P(X=0)=(10C0) (0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}= 0.1969

b) P(X=3)=(10C3) (0.15)^3 (1-0.15)^{10-3}= 0.1298

c) P(X \geq 1) = 1- P(X

P(X=0)=(10C0) (0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}= 0.1969

So then we have:

P(X \geq 1) = 1- P(X

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=10, p=0.15)

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

For this case we want this probability:

P(X=0)=(10C0) (0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}= 0.1969

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X=3)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=3)=(10C3) (0.15)^3 (1-0.15)^{10-3}= 0.1298

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \geq 1)

And we can use the complenet rule and we got:

P(X \geq 1) = 1- P(X

P(X=0)=(10C0) (0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}= 0.1969

So then we have:

P(X \geq 1) = 1- P(X

Problem If you roll two fair six-sided dice, what is the probability that the dice show the same number?
shusha [124]
Lets say yu are trying to roll a 4 on both of the dice the probability for both is 1/6 so multiply 1/6 × 1/6 and you get 1/36
so the probability for rolling the same number on each dice is 1/36
hope this helps!

Write an expression describing all the angles that are coterminal with 141°.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
<span>The coterminal angles of angle A are given by adding k times 360° to it, where k is an integer, positive or negative. Similarly, all angles that are coterminal with 141° are given by 141° + k * 360° where k is a positive or negative integer. That is 141° + 360°, 141 + 2*360° , 141+3*360° and so on and 141° - 360°, 141° -2*360°, 141° - 3*360° and so on. 9720)</span>

Can someone help me im confused....PLZZZZ
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width )

perimeter of rectangle A = 2(7) + 2(5) = 14 + 10 = 24 in

perimeter of rectangle B = 2(4x - 3) + 2x = 8x - 6 + 2x = 10x - 6 in

Equating the two gives

10x - 6 = 24 ( add 6 to both sides )

10x = 30 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 3

Thus

length of rectangle B = 4x - 3 = 4(3) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9 in

Width of rectangle B = x = 3 in
