At the airport entry​ sites, a computer is used to randomly decide whether a​ traveler's baggage should be opened for inspection

. If the chance of being selected is 1313​%, can you model your chance of having your baggage opened with a Bernoulli​ model? Check each of the conditions specifically. Trials are Bernoulli if the following three conditions are met. 1. There are only two possible outcomes​ (called success and​ failure) for each trial. 2. The probability of​ success, denoted​ p, is the same on every trial. 3. The trials are independent. Let the act of inspecting a baggage be a trial. Are there only two possible​ outcomes?

Answer:

Yes, you can model using Bernoulli model and Yes there are only 2 possible outcomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Checking Conditions:

1. There are only 2 possible outcomes

You either open a bag for inspection OR you don't

2. The probability of success (opening a bag) is 12% regardless of how many trials there are. THe probability doesn't change later or sooner.

3. The trials are independent of each other. It doesn't matter whether the previous person's bag was opened or not. Doesn't depend on previous event that happened. So trials are independent.

Thus, we can use a Bernoulli Model here.

I need help! This is too hard
Galina-37 [17]
To start, this is an interest problem, meaning you will have to use I=prt where I is the total interest, p is the principle amount, r is the rate, and time is the amount of time in years. Since you know the principle rate is $1200, the rate is 3.9%, and the time is 8 months, you can plug this into the formula. However, keep in mind that you have to convert 3.9% to a decimal before putting it into the formula and the time must be represented in years. 3.9% represented as a decimal would be 0.039 and 8 months would be represented as 8/12 or 2/3 (since there are 12 months in one year). Now that you have this information, plug the values into the formula: i=(1200)(0.039)(2/3). When simplified, you get your answer as $31.20.

Which of the following is the value of x?<br><br> A. 2<br><br> B.11<br><br> C. 20 <br><br> D. 29
Lunna [17]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

180= 45+ (5x+35)

-45 -45

135 = 5x + 35

-35 -35

100 = 5x

/5 /5

x=20

Solve:x+1 3/4=2 4/8
Shalnov [3]
Start by isolating the X.

1 :
x + 1 ¾ = 2 4/8
- 1 ¾ - 1 ¾

2 :
x = (2 4/8) - (1 ¾)

3 :
In order to subtract the fractions, you need to find a common denominator.
The common denominator can be found by multiplying the two denominators together.

4 x 8 = 32

4 :
Rewrite each fraction as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 32.

4/8 —> (4 x 4)/(8 x 4) —> 16/32
¾ —> (3 x 8)/(4 x 8) —> 24/32

5 :
Subtract the numerators. Simplify the answer if needed.
16/32 - 24/32
16 - 24 = -8
-8/32 —> (-8/4)/(32/4) —> -2/4
-2/4 —> (-2/2)/(4/2) —> - ½

6 :
(2 - 1) - ½ —> 1 - ½ = ½

Final answer : X = ½ :)
