SU would be 28 units because T is between S and U so you have to add ST and TU to get the length of the entire line

Answer:

0.1108 = 11.08% probability that there are exactly 3 faulty candy bars among the seven.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bars are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

60 total candies means that $N = 70$

12 are faulty, which means that $k = 12$

Seven are chosen, so $n = 7$

What is the probability that there are exactly 3 faulty candy bars among the seven?

This is $P(X = 3)$ . So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 3) = h(3,70,7,12) = \frac{C_{12,3}*C_{48,4}}{C_{60,7}} = 0.1108$

0.1108 = 11.08% probability that there are exactly 3 faulty candy bars among the seven.

Ask Your Teacher Consider a binomial random variable with n = 5 and p = 0.8. Let x be the number of successes in the sample. Eva

Answer:

0.942 is the required probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

x is a binomial random variable with n = 5 and p = 0.8.

Then,

$P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}$

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

We have to evaluate:

$P(x \geq 3) = P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) +P(x=5)\\\\= \binom{5}{3}(0.8)^3(1-0.8)^2 +\binom{5}{4}(0.8)^4(1-0.8)^1 +\binom{5}{5}(0.8)^5(1-0.8)^0\\\\= 0.2048 +0.4096+0.3276=0.942$

0.942 is the required probability.

What is the correct factorization of:<br> x? - 11x + 18

Dominik [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x² -11x +18 = (x -9)(x -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coefficient is the sum of the constants in the binomial factors; the constant term is their product. It usually works well to look for factors of the constant that have the right sum. Here, both must be negative.

18 = (-1)(-18) = (-2)(-9) = (-3)(-6)

The factors -2 and -9 have a sum of -11, so those are the binomial constants of interest. The factorization is ...

x² -11x +18 = (x -9)(x -2)
