A boy bought an article for £9. He spent £4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marina86 [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Profit % = 39%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of the article = 9

Price for repairing = 4

Therefore, Total cost of the article = 9 + 4 = 13

Selling price  of the article = 18

Profit = 18 - 13 = 5

Hence,

          Profit \% = \frac{Profit}{Cost \ price} \times 100\\\\

                        = \frac{5}{13} \times 100\\\\=38.46 \%\\\\=38.5 \%

Profit percent (to the nearest %) = 39%

If a car agency sells 50% of its inventory of a certain foreign car equipped with side airbags, find a formula for the probabilit
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of cars with side airbags among the next 4", on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=4, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And the distribution is given by:

P(X)= (4CX) (0.5)^x (1-0.5)^{4-x}

With X=0,1,2,3,4

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A Bernoulli trial is "a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted". And this experiment is a particular case of the binomial experiment.

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest "number of cars with side airbags among the next 4", on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=4, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And the distribution is given by:

P(X)= (4CX) (0.5)^x (1-0.5)^{4-x}

With X=0,1,2,3,4
