Answer:
The probability that there are 2 or more fraudulent online retail orders in the sample is 0.483.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can model this with a binomial random variable, with sample size n=20 and probability of success p=0.08.
The probability of k online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent in the sample is:
We have to calculate the probability that 2 or more online retail orders that turn out to be fraudulent. This can be calculated as:
![P(x\geq2)=1-[P(x=0)+P(x=1)]\\\\\\P(x=0)=\dbinom{20}{0}\cdot0.08^{0}\cdot0.92^{20}=1\cdot1\cdot0.189=0.189\\\\\\P(x=1)=\dbinom{20}{1}\cdot0.08^{1}\cdot0.92^{19}=20\cdot0.08\cdot0.205=0.328\\\\\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-[0.189+0.328]\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-0.517=0.483](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28x%5Cgeq2%29%3D1-%5BP%28x%3D0%29%2BP%28x%3D1%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CP%28x%3D0%29%3D%5Cdbinom%7B20%7D%7B0%7D%5Ccdot0.08%5E%7B0%7D%5Ccdot0.92%5E%7B20%7D%3D1%5Ccdot1%5Ccdot0.189%3D0.189%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CP%28x%3D1%29%3D%5Cdbinom%7B20%7D%7B1%7D%5Ccdot0.08%5E%7B1%7D%5Ccdot0.92%5E%7B19%7D%3D20%5Ccdot0.08%5Ccdot0.205%3D0.328%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CP%28x%5Cgeq2%29%3D1-%5B0.189%2B0.328%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CP%28x%5Cgeq2%29%3D1-0.517%3D0.483)
The probability that there are 2 or more fraudulent online retail orders in the sample is 0.483.
Answer:
-123
Step-by-step explanation:
The remainder theorem says that when a polynomial is divided by a linear factor x - c (note the minus sign), the remainder is the value of the polynomial at x = c.
When a polynomial P(x) is divided by x - c, the remainder is P(c). In other words, to find the remainder, plug in c for x.
You're dividing by x + 4 which is the same thing as x - (-4) -- the role of c is being played by -4.
3(–4)^3 – (–4)^2 – 20(–4) + 5 = –123
Remark
The trick to this question is realizing what you took 1/3 of. Did you take it of the 150000 or is it 1/3 of some total you have to find. I don't think you could come up with a third choice.
It turns out that the answer is 1/3 of a number you don't know.
Equation
(1/3) x = 150000 Multiply both sides by 3
3*(1/3) x = 150000 * 3
x = 150000 * 3
x = 450000
Conclusion
The amount the company makes is 450000 dollars / year.
Answer:
-17
Step-by-step explanation:
it's telling you to replace x with -3.
You have to replace all the x's with -3.
(-3)2 + (-3) - 8 = -17
