Answer:
P(X= k) = (1-p)^k-1.p
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the number of trials is
N < = k, the geometric distribution gives the probability that there are k-1 trials that result in failure(F) before the success(S) at the kth trials.
Given p = success,
1 - p = failure
Hence the distribution is described as: Pr ( FFFF.....FS)
Pr(X= k) = (1-p)(1-p)(1-p)....(1-p)p
Pr((X=k) = (1 - p)^ (k-1) .p
Since N<=k
Pr (X =k) = p(1-p)^k-1, k= 1,2,...k
0, elsewhere
If the probability is defined for Y, the number of failure before a success
Pr (Y= k) = p(1-p)^y......k= 0,1,2,3
0, elsewhere.
Given p= 0.2, k= 3,
P(X= 3) =( 0.2) × (1 - 0.2)²
P(X=3) = 0.128
Answer:
x³ + 7x² - 6x - 72
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 6)(x + 4)(x - 3) ← expand the second and third factor, that is
(x + 4)(x - 3)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
x(x - 3) + 4(x - 3) ← distribute both parenthesis
= x² - 3x + 4x - 12 ← collect like terms
= x² + x - 12
Now multiply this by (x + 6) in the same way
(x + 6)(x² + x - 12)
= x(x² + x - 12) + 6(x² + x - 12) ← distribute both parenthesis
= x³ + x² - 12x + 6x² + 6x - 72 ← collect like terms
= x³ + 7x² - 6x - 72
Answer:
Acute angle = 30°
Obtuse angle = 150°
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1:
Let x represent the measurement of the obtuse angle
Obtuse angle = x
Acute angle = ⅕ of x = x/5
Thus:
x + x/5 = 180° (angels on a straight line)
Solve for x
(5x + x)/5 = 180
Multiply both sides by 5
5x + x = 180 × 5
6x = 900
x = 900/6
x = 150
Obtuse angle = 150°
Acute angle = x/5 = 150/5 = 30°
Method 2:
Since acute angle = ⅕ of the obtuse angle, therefore,
Obtuse angle = 5*acute angle
Let acute angle = x
Obtuse angle = 5x
Equation:
5x + x = 180° (angles on a straight line)
Solve for x
6x = 180
x = 180/6
x = 30
Acute angle = x = 30°
Obtuse angle = 5x = 5*30 = 150°
I believe it would be b.
explanation: use this rule: (x^a)^b = x^ab
