Answer:
The probability that 8 mice are required is 0.2428.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A scientist inoculates mice, one at a time, with a disease germ until he finds 3 that have contracted the disease. If the probability of contracting the disease is two sevenths.
To find : What is the probability that 8 mice are required? The probability that that 8 mice are required is nothing ?
Solution :
Applying binomial distribution,

Where, p is the probability of success 
q is the probability of failure q=1-p, 
n is total number of trials n=8
r=3
Substitute the values,




Therefore, the probability that 8 mice are required is 0.2428.

didn't get the question did u forget to put the sequence ???????
pls write the question fully so that I can help you
Answer:
^algebra^
#1). a - b=4
a=4 + b .....(equation 1)
#2) a + b=12
(4 + b) + b= 12
4 + b + b=12
4 + 2b=12
2b= 12 - 4
2b =8
b= 8:2
b=4
subtituted b in equation 1
a= 4 + b
a= 4 + 4
a=8
so, the number is 8 and 4
