Answer:
A darts player practices throwing a dart at the bull’s eye on a dart board. Her probability of hitting the bull’s eye for each throw is 0.2.
(a) Find the probability that she is successful for the first time on the third throw:
The number F of unsuccessful throws till the first bull’s eye follows a geometric
distribution with probability of success q = 0.2 and probability of failure p = 0.8.
If the first bull’s eye is on the third throw, there must be two failures:
P(F = 2) = p
2
q = (0.8)2
(0.2) = 0.128.
(b) Find the probability that she will have at least three failures before her first
success.
We want the probability of F ≥ 3. This can be found in two ways:
P(F ≥ 3) = P(F = 3) + P(F = 4) + P(F = 5) + P(F = 6) + . . .
= p

= (0.8)3 = 0.512.
Alternatively,
P(F ≥ 3) = 1 − (P(F = 0) + P(F = 1) + P(F = 2))
= 1 − (q + pq + p

q)
= 1 − (0.2)(1 + 0.8 + (0.8)2
)
= 1 − 0.488 = 0.512.
(c) How many throws on average will fail before she hits bull’s eye?
Since p = 0.8 and q = 0.2, the expected number of failures before the first success
is
E[F] = p

John didn't check his work.
The appropriate transformation rule is (x -4, y-7).

John's signs were in error.
The x-intercept of the line 3x - 5y = 7 is at point ( 7/3, 0 ).
<h3>What is the x-intercept of the line?</h3>
Given the function;
X-intercept occurs on the graph when y=0. Hence, to determine x-intercept, we substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.
3x - 5y = 7
3x - 5(0) = 7
3x - 0 = 7
3x = 7
x = 7/3
Hence, we have a point ( 7/3, 0 ).
The x-intercept of the line 3x - 5y = 7 is at point ( 7/3, 0 ).

Answer:</h3>
y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3) . . . . or . . . . y = x³ -2x² -5x +6
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The graph shows y=0 at x=-2, x=1, and x=3. These are called the "zeros" or "roots" of the function, because the value of the function is zero there.
When "a" is a zero of a polynomial function, (x -a) is a factor. This means the factors of the graphed function are (x -(-2)), (x -1) and (x -3). The function can be written as the product of these factors:
... y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3) . . . . . the equation represented by the graph
Or, the product can be multiplied out
... y = (x +2)(x² -4x +3)
... y = x³ -2x² -5x +6 . . . . . the equation represented by the graph
