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

PLEASE HELP
ycow [4]

Answer:

11 bushels of apples were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x---->  bushels of peaches

y---->  bushels of apples

we know that

7x+6y=346 -----> equation A

x=y+29 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

7(y+29)+6y=346

7y+203+6y=346

13y=346-203

13y=143

y=143/13=11

Write the equation for the area (A) in terms of length (l) of a playground if the width (w) is one half as long as the length (l
Dvinal [7]
Let, the length = l
Width = l/2

Area = l * w = l * l/2 = l²/2

So, Your Final Answer would be  A = l²/2

Hope this helps!
