gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that on a six-question multiple-choice test there are five possible answers for each question, of which one is correct and four are incorrect

By mere guessing probability for choosing correct answer = p = 0.2

also each question is independent of the other

Hence if X is the number of correct questions then

X is binomial with p = 0.2 and n = 6

a) being correct on three questions,

= $P(X=3) = 0.08192$

(b) being correct on four questions,

= $P(X=4) = 0.01536$

= $P(x=6) = 0.000064$

Answer:

.441320612

44.132%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is binomial

fewer than 3 is equal to p(0)+p(1)+p(2)

$p(0)={19\choose0}*.15^0*(1-.15)^{19}=.045599448\\p(1)={19\choose1}*.15^1*(1-.15)^{18}=.152892268\\p(2)={19\choose2}*.15^2*(1-.15)^{17}=.242828896\\p(0)+p(1)+p(2)=.441320612$

C: y=-3

D:y=2x+9

E: y=-10x+80

F:y=x-2

#1 rodney's error for

y=30x+10 is that he started off at 30 but he had to start off at 10 so it starts at (0,10) (1,40) (2,70) and keep going on by adding one to the x value and 30 to the y value

#2 rodneys error for

y=-1/2x+5 is that he went up by 1/2 instead of going down. it's a negative 1/2 so he had to go down

#3 Rodneys error for

y=x-2 is that he didn't start at (0.-2)
