In a multiple choice quiz there are 5 questions and 4 choices for each question (a, b, c, d). Robin has not studied for the quiz

Ahat [919]

Answer:

a) There is a 18.75% probability that the first question that she gets right is the second question.

b) There is a 65.92% probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right.

c) There is a 10.35% probability that she gets the majority of the questions right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each question can have two outcomes. Either it is right, or it is wrong. So, for b) and c), we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

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

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

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

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

And $\pi$ is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

Each question has 4 choices. So for each question, Robin has a $\frac{1}{4} = 0.25$ probability of getting ir right. So $\pi = 0.25$ . There are five questions, so $n = 5$ .

(a) What is the probability that the first question she gets right is the second question?

There is a 75% probability of getting the first question wrong and there is a 25% probability of getting the second question right. These probabilities are independent.

So

$P = 0.75(0.25) = 0.1875$

There is a 18.75% probability that the first question that she gets right is the second question.

(b) What is the probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right?

This is: $P = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{4} = 0.3955$

$P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{3} = 0.2637$

$P = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.3955 + 0.2637 = 0.6592$

There is a 65.92% probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right.

(c) What is the probability that she gets the majority of the questions right?

That is the probability that she gets 3, 4 or 5 questions right.

$P = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{2} = 0.0879$

$P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.25)^{4}.(0.75)^{1} = 0.0146$

$P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.25)^{5}.(0.75)^{0} = 0.001$

$P = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0879 + 0.0146 + 0.001 = 0.1035$

There is a 10.35% probability that she gets the majority of the questions right.

if each side of the cube shown above has the same length as the measured side what is the approximate volume of the cube

klemol [59]

Answer:

The measured side is not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

A cube is a 3-dimensional object with 6 square faces.

You know that all the sides of a square have the same length, then is the same for the cube.

To calculate the volume of a cube, we start with the area of the base.

The base is a square of sidelength L (Suppose that L is the length of the measured side)

The area of the base is:

A = L^2.

To find the volume, we must multiply the area of the base by the height of the fire (because the section of the base does not change).

And the height of the cube is also L.

Then the volume is:

V = L*a = L^3

What is the best first step in solving the equation 3 +<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%5Csqrt%5B6%5D%7Bx%7D" id="TexFormula1

Andreas93 [3]

$3+3\sqrt[6]{x}~~ = ~~5\implies \stackrel{\textit{1st step,-3 to both sides}}{3\sqrt[6]{x}~~ = ~~2}\implies \sqrt[6]{x}=\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ (\sqrt[6]{x})^6=\left( \cfrac{2}{3} \right)^6\implies x=\cfrac{2^6}{3^6}\implies x=\cfrac{64}{729}$
