Answer: P(x ≥ 1) = 0.893
Step-by-step explanation:
We would assume a binomial distribution for the outcome of the investment. The formula is expressed as
P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)
Where
x represent the number of successes.
p represents the probability of success.
q = (1 - r) represents the probability of failure.
n represents the number of trials or sample.
From the information given,
p = 36% = 36/100 = 0.36
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.36
q = 0.64
n = 5
Therefore,
P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x = 0)
P(x = 0) = 5C0 × 0.36^0 × 0.64^(5 - 0)
P(x = 0) = 1 × 1 × 0.107
P(x = 0) = 0.107
P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.107 = 0.893
Answer:
there are no options listed, but some statements that are true about this question are:
- total perimeter = (8.5 x 2) + (5.5 x 2) = 28 feet = 9¹/₃ yards
- since Shelley purchased 10 yards of ribbon, it should be enough
- after finishing the blanket, Shelley will have 2 feet of ribbon left
The top right is the answer. The base should be square with lengths of 8 and the height is 10.
Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
-14a-5=-12
+5 +5
-14a=-7
Divide -7 by -14a
a=2
