Pavlova-9 [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

0.00259

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability, p of making the correct guess ; 1 / 5 = 0.2

Passing grade = 50% ; 50% * 20 = 0.5 * 20 = 10

q = probability of not passing ;

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

Using the binomial distribution formula :

P(x >=x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

P(x >= 10) = p(x = 10) + p(x = 11)+... + p(x = 20)

P(x >= 10) = 10C20 * 0.2^10 * 0.8^10

P(x >=) 0.00259

Help with both questions offering 10 points
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

\:\mathrm{First\: problem:\:}-2,\\\:\mathrm{Second\: problem:\: }-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) is:

m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Plugging in any two points in the table we have:

<u>First problem:</u>

<u />m=\frac{1-5}{2-0}=\frac{-4}{2}=\fbox{$-2$}<u />

<u>Second problem:</u>

<u />m=\frac{-1-5}{2-0}=\frac{-6}{2}=\fbox{$-3$}<u />

DiKsa [7]
I think A, C, D are right because of the 12 pairs of heels, 6 are black (6/12) That means half of them could be chosen and be black (0.5). Another way to write 0.5 is as a percentage, 50%.
