<h3>Answer:</h3>
- A — 1
- B — ∑[k=0..2] 15Ck(.24^k)(.76^(15-k))
- D — 12 and 3.1
- A — 0.1091
- B — 0.83 ...
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
1. The probability is 0.52 that the officer will pull over a driver and then the expected number more. So, if x is the expected number of drivers pulled over until one is not texting, we have ...
... x = 0.52(1+x)
... 0.48x = 0.52
... x = 0.52/0.48 = 13/12 = 1 1/12 ≈ 1 . . . . matches selection A
(<em>Comment on this result</em>: I find it interesting that these are the odds in favor of finding a driver who texts. That is, if the probability of texting is 0.98, the odds are 49:1 that a driver will be texting, and the expected number of pull-overs is 49.)
2. The probability of at most 2 being cured is the probability of 0, 1, or 2 being cured. You need to add up those probabilities. The sum in answer selection B does that.
3. The mean of a binomial distribution is ...
... μx = np = 60·0.2 = 12
... σx = √(np(1-p)) = √(12·0.8) ≈ 3.0984
These match selection D.
4. 20C14(0.8^14)(0.2^6) = 38760·.043980·0.000064 ≈ 0.109100 . . . matches A
5. mean(x) = 0.94; mean(x^2) = 1.58, so ...
... σx = √(1.58 -0.94²) ≈ 0.83 . . . . matches selection B
Here are some points that could be used :
1. seceding would reduce the amount of resource that the nation as a whole had, so the federal government shall not allowed it to happen.
2. Many people in the population might not agree to the secession so the government had to protect their interest,
3. Secession make our nation become much more vulnerable to attacks, since foreign nations can leverage the separation to gain allied that close to us.
