Question:
Alfie tossed a paper cup in the air 150 times and recorded the side it landed on.
Right side up = 60 Upside down = 53 Side = 37
If Alfie tosses the paper cup 100 more times what is the expected number of times the cup will land on its side?
Answer:
The expected number of times the cup will land on its side is 25 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Given



Required
First, we calculate the probability of landing on side



Next, we calculate the expected value; E(x) using:

When tossed 100 more times:
n = 100 and P(x) = P(Side) = 0.247
So:


--- approximated
<em>Hence, it is expected that it will land on its side 25 times</em>

I think correct answer is 6,
I don't know but the standard way is in the photo:
Answer:
Add 39499 plus 3499
Step-by-step explanation:
and get it
there is 128 fluid ounces per gallon so 1.5 gallons = 1.5 x 128 = 192 fluid ounces
Scotts cap holds 3 ounces so 192/3 = 64
Nikkis cap holds 4 ounces so 192/4 = 48
64-48 = 16 more caps for Scott
