Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y, z, t, u represent the five numbers. Since their average is 18,

(x + y + z + t + u) / 5 = 18  

→ x + y + z + t + u = 90  (1)

If the first number is increased by 1, the second number by 2, the third number by 3, the fourth number by 4, and the fifth number by 5, then the total of the numbers will be

(x+1) + (y+2) + (z+3) + (t+4) + (u+5)

→ x + y + z + t + u + 15   (Substitute x + y + z + t + u from equation 1)

→ 90 + 15 = 105

If the total of increased numbers is 105, then the average is

105 / 5 = 21

Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with a trial repeated n times. Use the binomial probability formula to fi
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

P(X = 12) = 0.0064.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 30, p = 0.2

We want P(X = 12). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 12) = C_{30,12}.(0.2)^{12}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.0064

P(X = 12) = 0.0064.

How to simplify the expression (2^2)÷2^10
dimulka [17.4K]
Simplify means solve and to solve we first need to do 2 to the 2nd power which is two *  2 that equal 4 than do 2 to the 10th power that equal 1024 and than we can just do

4 divided by 1024 = 0.0390625
