Answer:
The probability is 0.0428
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's remember that the binomial distribution is given by the formula:
![P(X=k) =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\k\end{array}\right] p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%3Dk%29%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dn%5C%5Ck%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20p%5E%7Bk%7D%281-p%29%5E%7Bn-k%7D)
where k is the number of successes in n trials and p is the probability of success.
However, the problem tells us that when there isn't a number of trials fixed, we can use the geometric distribution and the formula for getting the first success on the xth trial becomes:
The problem asks us to find the probability of the first success on the 4th trial (given that the first subject to be a universal blood donor will be the fourth person selected)
Using this formula with the parameters given, we have:
p = 0.05
x = 4
Substituting these parameters in the formula and solving it, we get:
Therefore, the probability that the first subject to be a universal blood donor is the fourth person selected is 0.0428 or 4.28%
Here are all of the answers:
1. yes, it is evenly divisible by 17 equally: 4,165 / 17 = 245
2. 194,610 / 26 = 7,485
3. 750 bananas divided equally by 50 students is 15 bananas per student:
750 / 50 = 15
4. 2400 / 15 = 160
5. 94,104 is not divisible by 12 evenly: 94,104 / 12 = 6,273.6
6. 44,237 / 31 = 1,427
7. 35 roses divided equally among 5 rows equals 7 roses per row: 35 / 5 = 7
8. 16,606 / 19 = 874
9. 83,525 is evenly divisible by 13: 83,525 / 13 = 6,425
10. $3,600 worth of toys divided by $18 per toy equals 200 toys: $3,600 / $18 = 200
Answer:
28 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference is given by
C = pi *d
C = 22/7 ( 9)
C =198/7
=28.28571429 inches
Answer:
the equation is : x²-x-12
Step-by-step explanation:
the quadratic equation is in the form of : y=ax²+bx+c
the product of the zeros is -12 and the sum is 1
b = - 1
c=-12 (product)
y=x²-x-12
check : factorize first (x+3)(x-4)=0
either x+3=0 then x=-3
or x-4=0 then x=4
-3*4=-12
-3+4=1
the equation is : x²-x-12
