I doubt the options you've mentioned here.
The correct answer should be x=a/b
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - represents 1 point shots
(54 - x) - represents 2 point shots
x + 2(54 - x) = 89
x + 108 - 2x = 89
-x + 108 = 89
x = 19 (1 point shots)
54-x = 35 ( 2 point shots)
Test:
19 + 35 = 54 (total shots)
19 x 1 = 19
35 x 2 = 70
70 + 19 = 89 points
Answer:
a. P(x = 5) = 0.24
b. P(x ≥ 6) = 0.43
c. P(x < 4)= 0.14
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Question,
- Given, 52 %of U.S. Adults have very little confidence in newspapers & We have to randomly select 10 U.S. Adults.
⇒We use Binomial Probability Formula
Where, p=0.52 & n=10
a. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is exactly five . So, (x=5)
Thus,
On Solving Above Equation we get,
P(5)=0.2441 ≈ 0.24
b. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least 6 . So, (x≥6)
Then,
P(x≥6) = P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)
P(x≥6) = + + + +
On solving above equation we get,
P(x≥6) = 0.4270 ≈ 0.43
c. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than 4 . So, (x<4)
Then,
P(x < 4)=P(3) + P(2)+P(1)+P(0)
P(x<4) = + + +
On solving we get,
P(x < 4)= 0.1410 ≈ 0.14
