Answer:

12.4 pieces of ribbon

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking in the question, we can see the term "cut into equal pieces." This can insure to us that we need to divide two numbers. Since we originally have 15.5 inches long string, and we want to cut it into strings that are 1.25 inches long. We divide :

15.5 / 1.25

==> 12.4

) Thirty percent of the students in a management class are graduate students. A random sample of 3 students is selected. a) Usin

skelet666 [1.2K]

Given Information:

Probability of success = 30%

Sample size = n = 3

Variable of interest = x = 2

Required Information:

Probability of exactly 2 graduates = ?

Answer:

Probability of exactly 2 graduates = P(2; 3, 0.30) = 0.189

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be modeled as a binomial experiment since a random selected student can either b graduate or not therefore, there are only 2 outcomes. Each trial is independent and the probability of success is not changing from trial to trial. The number of trials in also fixed.

We know that a binomial distribution is given by

P(x; n, p) = nCx pˣ (1 - p)ⁿ⁻ˣ

Where p is the probability of success and 1 - p is the probability of failure, n is number of independent trials and x is the variable of interest.

For the given problem, we know that x = 2, n = 3 and p = 0.30

P(2; 3, 0.30) = 3C2*0.30²*(1 - 0.30)³⁻²

P(2; 3, 0.30) = 3*0.30²*(0.70)¹

P(2; 3, 0.30) = 0.189

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of the triangle that are given in relation to x are the Adjacent side (10) and the Hypotenuse (15). The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA tells you the trig function that uses sides A and H is the Cosine function.

Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

cos(x) = 10/15
