WE have 10 questions, the answer is either right or wrong whatever the number of choices. Then P(right) = 1/2 and Q(wrong) =1/2
Moreover as per the given of the problem, he may get at least 7 right answers, that means he can get 7 OR 8 OR 9 OR 10 right answers:
Here-below the binomial probability distribution:

 a) for 7 exactly right answers : ¹⁰C₇ (1/2)⁷(1/2)³     =  0.117187

b) for 8 exactly right answers : ¹⁰C₈ (1/2)⁸(1/2)²      =  0.043945

c) for 9 exactly right answers : ¹⁰C₉ (1/2)⁹(1/2)¹      =  0.009656

d) for 10 exactly right answers : ¹⁰C₁₀ (1/2)¹⁰(1/2)⁰  = 0.000488
                                                                                  -------------
                                                  Σ (PROBABILITY) =  0.171276

P( 7 or 8 or 9 or 10) = 0.1712 OR 17.12%

How to find the measurements of an angles
Mariulka [41]
•sum of the angles in a triangle = 180°
•sum of the angle in a quadrilateral = 360°
•opposite angles are equal
•for two parallel lines and a transversal, corresponding angles are equal, and alternate angles are equal.
•If it already has an angle for a triangle subtract that by 180 and divide it by two you have the other two angle, if you already have two angles on a triangle add those together and subtract from 180 thats the last angle, same for a quadrilateral but you subtract by 360 instead.

Paul makes 3 5/6 dozen cookies. He gives each of his friends 1/6 dozen cookies.
AveGali [126]
If he gives ALL of the cookies away..

3 5/6 = 6/6 + 6/6 + 6/6 + 5/6

6+6+6+5 = 23

Paul has 23 friends. (if he takes 1/6, then he has 22)

hope this helps
