Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.
<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:
The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- n is the number of trials.
- p is the probability of a success on a single trial.
In this problem, we have that:
- There are 6 students, hence n = 6.
- There are 20 quotes, hence the probability of each being chosen is p = 1/20 = 0.05.
The probability of one quote being chosen at least two times is given by:
In which:
P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1).
Then:
Then:
P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.7351 + 0.2321 = 0.9672.
0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
8(4-x) = 7x + 2
1) Distribute : 32 - 8x = 7x + 2
2) Subtract 32 : -8x = 7x - 30
3) Subtract 7x : -15x = -30
4) Divide 15 : x = 2 :)
Answer: the small bottle holds 15 ounces while the large bottle holds 23 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of ounces that a small bottle holds.
Let y represent the number of ounces that a large bottle holds.
He drank 2 small bottles and 2 large bottles, for a total of 76 ounces. It means that
2x + 2y = 76 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The day before, he drank 4 small bottles and 1 large bottle, for a total of 83 ounces. This means that
4x + y = 83 - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes
4x + 4y = 152
4x + y = 83
Subtracting, it becomes
3y = 69
y = 69/3 = 23 ounces
Substituting y = 23 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 2 × 23 = 76
2x + 46 = 76
2x = 76 - 46 = 30
x = 30/2 = 15 ounces
