Answer:

The correct answer is 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the probability is as follows:

X\sim Bin (n,p)

Here

n = 8

p = 0.20 or 20%

Now this is a binomial probability distribution

P(X) = ^nC_x \times p^x \tmes (1 - p)^{n-x}\\\\P(3) = ^8C_3 \tims 0.20^3 \times (1 - 0.20)^5

= 0.15

Hence, the correct answer is 0.15

Naily [24]
The closest option to the actual answer is a.

1 5/18 is the actual answer.

If you make both the denominators the same, then you can actually add the fractions together.

To make both of the denominators the same, you need to multiply 5/6 by 9 and 4/9 by 6, which would result in 45/54 + 24/54= 69/54 = 23/18. If we convert it to a mixed fraction, it would result into 1 5/18.

7. Is it proportional?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

A unit rate is the rate of change in a relationship where the rate is per 1.

The rate of change is the ratio between the x and y (or input and output) values in a relationship.  Another term for the rate of change for proportional relationships is the constant of proportionality.

If the rate of change is yx, then so is the constant of proportionality.  To simplify things, we set  yx=k, where k represents the constant of proportionality.  

If you solve a yx=k equation for y, (like this: y=kx), it is called a direct variation equation. In a direct variation equation, y varies directly with x. When x increases or decreases, y also increases or decreases by the same proportion.

To find y in a direct variation equation, multiply x by the constant of proportionality, k.

For example: Given the relationship y=7x, the constant of proportionality k=7,  so if x=3,  then y=3×7 or 21.

Given the same relationship, if x=7,  then y=7×7, or 49.
