Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Margie is practicing for an upcoming tennis tournament. Her first serve is good 20 out of 30 times on average.
Since each trial is independent and there are two outcomes, X no of good serves is binomial with n=6 and p =2/3
Required probability
= Prob that atleast four of 6 times good serve
=
=
Formula used:
P(X=r) =
Answer:
The sum of reciprocals is 2/3.
You don't need complex numbers to solve this, but if you try to find a and b you will need complex numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b = 2
a*b = 3
1/a + 1/b = x
(a*b)*(1/a + 1/b) = (a*b)x
b + a = (a*b)(x)
2 = 3x
x = 2/3
b = 2 - a
a*(2 - a) = 3
-a^2 + 2a = 3
-a^2 + 2a - 3 = 0
a^2 - 2a + 3 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
a^2 - 2a + 3 = a^2 - 2a + 1 + 2 = (a - 1)^2 + 2 = 0
(a - 1)^2 = -2
these options correspond to a and b from the original question.
