Hi there!

$5x + 12 + 6x - 10 = 360$
Collect terms.

$11x + 2 = 360$
Subtract 2 from both sides.

$11x = 358$
Divide both sides by 11.

$x = \frac{358}{11 } = 32 \frac{6}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

5x + 12 + 6x - 10 = 360

11x + 2 = 360

11x = 358

x = 32.5454545455

Answer:

a) The probability that exactly 4 flights are on time is equal to 0.0313

b) The probability that at most 3 flights are on time is equal to 0.0293

c) The probability that at least 8 flights are on time is equal to 0.00586

Step-by-step explanation:

The question posted is incomplete. This is the complete question:

United Airlines' flights from Denver to Seattle are on time 50 % of the time. Suppose 9 flights are randomly selected, and the number on-time flights is recorded. Round answers to 3 significant figures.

a) The probability that exactly 4 flights are on time is =

b) The probability that at most 3 flights are on time is =

c)The probability that at least 8 flights are on time is =

<h2>Solution to the problem</h2>

a) Probability that exactly 4 flights are on time

Since there are two possible outcomes, being on time or not being on time, whose probabilities do not change, this is a binomial experiment.

The probability of success (being on time) is p = 0.5.

The probability of fail (note being on time) is q = 1 -p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

You need to find the probability of exactly 4 success on 9 trials: X = 4, n = 9.

The general equation to find the probability of x success in n trials is:

$P(X=x)=_nC_x\cdot p^x\cdot (1-p)^{(n-x)}$

Where $_nC_x$ is the number of different combinations of x success in n trials.

$_nC_x=\frac{x!}{n!(n-x)!}$

Hence,

$P(X=4)=_9C_4\cdot (0.5)^4\cdot (0.5)^{5}$

$_9C_4=\frac{4!}{9!(9-4)!}=126$

$P(X=4)=126\cdot (0.5)^4\cdot (0.5)^{5}=0.03125$

b) Probability that at most 3 flights are on time

The probability that at most 3 flights are on time is equal to the probabiity that exactly 0 or exactly 1 or exactly 2 or exactly 3 are on time:

$P(X\leq 3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)$

$P(X=0)=(0.5)^9=0.00195313$ . . . (the probability that all are not on time)

$P(X=1)=_9C_1(0.5)^1(0.5)^8=9(0.5)^1(0.5)^8=0.00390625$

$P(X=2)=_9C_2(0.5)^2(0.5)^7=36(0.5)^2(0.5)^7=0.0078125$

$P(X=3)= _9C_3(0.5)^3(0.5)^6=84(0.5)^3(0.5)^6=0.015625$

$P(X\leq 3)=0.00195313+0.00390625+0.0078125+0.015625=0.02929688\\\\ P(X\leq 3) \approx 0.0293$

c) Probability that at least 8 flights are on time 

That at least 8 flights are on time is the same that at most 1 is not on time.

That is, 1 or 0 flights are not on time.

Then, it is easier to change the successful event to not being on time, so I will change the name of the variable to Y.

$P(Y=0)=_0C_9(0.5)^0(0.5)^9=0.00195313\\ \\ P(Y=1)=_1C_9(0.5)^1(0.5)^8=0.0039065\\ \\ P(Y=0)+P(Y=1)=0.00585938\approx 0.00586$

You roll 4 fair, distinguishable, six-sided dice. What is the probability of rolling :______

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a)0.25

b)0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible outcomes when dice are rolled : 1 ,2 ,3,4,5 ,6

Even= 2,4,6

Odd = 1 ,3 , 5

Probability of getting even = $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Probability of getting odd = $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

4 dices are rolled together

a)P(3 even and 1 odd numbers)

P(3 even and 1 odd numbers)= $^4C_3 (\frac{1}{2})^3 (\frac{1}{2})^1$

P(3 even and 1 odd numbers)= $\frac{4!}{3!1!} (\frac{1}{2})^3 (\frac{1}{2})^1 =0.25$

b)P(2 even and 2 odd numbers)

P(2 even and 2 odd numbers)= $^4C_2 (\frac{1}{2})^2 (\frac{1}{2})^2$

P(3 even and 1 odd numbers)= $\frac{4!}{2!2!} (\frac{1}{2})^2 (\frac{1}{2})^2$ =0.375
