A
this is a geometric sequence since there exists a common ratio r between the terms
r = =
=
= 3
B
to obtain the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by 3
= 3
← recursive rule
C
the n th term of a geometric sequence is
=
where is the first term in the sequence
= 7 ×
← explicit rule
Answer:
The probability that at most 38 of the 60 relays are from supplier A is P(X≤38)=0.3409.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can model this question with a binomial distribution random variable.
The sample size is n=60.
The probability that the relay come from supplier A is p=2/3 for any relay.
If we use a normal aproximation, we have the mean and standard deviation:
The probability that at most 38 of the 60 relays are from supplier A is P(X≤38)=0.3409:
