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

PLZ HELP
Roman55 [17]
She has 65 water bottles....and she is buying boxes of water bottles (x) that hold 16 water bottles each. She can only buy up to 5 water bottles.

f(x) = 16x + 65...where f(x) = total water bottles and x = number of boxes
x < = 5.....here is ur restriction

the range is ur f(x) values which represent the total number of water bottles...keep in mind, she can only buy 5. Therefore, the numbers that can be subbing in for x are 0 thru 5.

So when subbing in 0 thru 5 for x, the results for f(x) are :
{ 65,81,97,113,129 } <== ur range

Find (gOf)(3)<br> f(x)=3x-2<br> g(x)=x^2
viktelen [127]
F(x)=3x-2
g(x)=x^2
(g o f)(3)=?

(g o f)(3)=g(f(3))
x=3→f(3)=3(3)-2
f(3)=9-2
f(3)=7

(g o f)(3)=g(f(3))=g(7)
x=7→g(7)=7^2
g(7)=49

Answer: (g o f)(3)=49

In △ABC, a = 4, b = 5, and ∠C = 110°. Find the length of the the median to the longest side
dexar [7]

The expert phase is different for different tasks. The calculator tries to calculate the sizes of three sides of the triangle from the entered data. He gradually applies the knowledge base to the entered data, which is represented in particular by the relationships between individual parameters of the triangle. These are successively applied and combined, and the parameters of the triangle calculate. Calculator iterate until the triangle has calculated all three sides. For example, the appropriate height is calculated from the given area of the triangle and the corresponding side. From the known height and angle, the adjacent side, etc., can be calculated. They use knowledge, e.g., formulas (relations) Pythagorean theorem, Sine theorem, Cosine theorem, Heron's formula, solving equations and systems of equations.The second stage is the calculation of the properties of the triangle from the known lengths of its three sides.
