Answer:
- 61x - 67
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
d = - 9x - 2 - (- 5x + 3)
= - 9x - 2 + 5x - 3
= - 4x - 5 and a₁ = - 5x + 3, thus
= - 5x + 3 + 14(- 4x - 5) = - 5x + 3 - 56x - 70 = - 61x - 67
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;
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) =
=
= <u>0.3115</u>
