Answer: 0.0791
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The probability that a baseball player will get a hit in any one at bat is 0.250.
Let x be the first hit.
According to the geometric probability , the probability that x (th) trial is the first success =
, where p is the probability of getting success in each trial.
As per given p= 0.250
Then, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat will be :

Hence, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat is 0.0791 .
The total cost of the camera is $268.26
A down payment of $12 was paid so he now owes $256.26
Every 6 months Emil has to pay:
256.26 / 6 = 42.71
Therefore, each moth, Emil has to pay $42.71
The answer is option E i.e., 1 because we know that there are 3 defective batteries in the case so the probability will never be 1 for this case.
Answer: +$45
Step-by-step explanation: if his actual pay for the week was $100 then from the question he incorrectly calculated it as {$100 + $45} = $145 which is $45 above his actual pay.
Error = measured value - actual
value.
= $145 -$100 =$45.
NOTE: since the value he assumed{$145} is greater than his actual pay{$100}, we have to include a positive sign to the error{$45}.
Therefore, Error = +$45.
