A baseball player has a batting average of 0.25. What is the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at bats

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

The probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats is 0.3115.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a baseball player has a batting average of 0.25 and we have to find the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats.

Let X = <u><em>Number of hits made by a baseball player</em></u>

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

$P(X = r) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r}; x = 0,1,2,......$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 7 at-bats

r = number of success = exactly 2 hits

p = probability of success which in our question is batting average

of a baseball player, i.e; p = 0.25

SO, X ~ Binom(n = 7, p = 0.25)

Now, the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at-bats is given by = P(X = 2)

P(X = 2) = $\binom{7}{2}\times 0.25^{2} \times (1-0.25)^{7-2}$

= $21 \times 0.25^{2} \times 0.75^{5}$

= <u>0.3115</u>

A sphere has a diameter of 12 meters. What is its exact surface area and its exact volume?

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The exact value of its surface area = 144π m²

The exact value of its volume = 288π m³

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The diameter of the sphere is 12m

∴ The radius of the sphere = 12 ÷ 2 = 6m

∵ The surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

∴ The surface area = 4 × π × 6² = 144π m²

∵ The volume of the sphere = 4/3 πr³

∴ The volume = $\frac{4}{3}\pi (6)^{3}$ = 288π m³

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given the points

(-1, -2)

(3, 4)

Determining the slope between (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:-2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:4\right)$

$m=\frac{4-\left(-2\right)}{3-\left(-1\right)}$

$m=\frac{3}{2}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

m = 3/2

substituting m = 3/2 and the point (3, 4) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

$4=\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b$

switch sides

$\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b=4$

$\frac{9}{2}+b=4$

subtract 9/2 from both sides

$\frac{9}{2}+b-\frac{9}{2}=4-\frac{9}{2}$

$b=-\frac{1}{2}$

now substituting m = 3/2 and b = -1/2 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

$y = mx+b$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:+\:\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

30 POINTS!!!!!!!! JoeNah, DeKobian and Evan wrote equations to calculate the amount of money in a savings account after one year

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

See the explanation for the answer to this question

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

B ---> the balance of money saved.

M ---> the amount invested in dollars

JoeNah's Equation

M=$100

$B=1.5(100)=\$150$

Dekobian's Equation

M=$100

$B=100+0.05(100)=\$105$

Evan's Equation

M=$100

$B=M(1+0.05)$

Substitute

$B=100(1+0.05)=\$105$

Dekobian's equation and Evan's equation are correct! :)

JoeNah's equation is wrong. :(

Hope this helps you!

Have a good evening!
