Answer:

0.3164 = 31.64% probability the team wins all its conference games

Step-by-step explanation:

For each conference game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the team wins it, or they lose. The probability of winning a game is independent of any other game. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

A football team has a probability of .75 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference.

The probability means that p = 0.75, and four games means that n = 4

If the games are independent, what is the probability the team wins all its conference games?

This is P(X = 4). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.75)^{4}.(0.25)^{0} = 0.3164

0.3164 = 31.64% probability the team wins all its conference games

Find the measure of angle X.<br><br><br>11°<br><br>12°<br><br>17°<br><br>61°
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

option B : 12 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle = 180 degree

Small box represents 90 degree

From the inner triangle

90 + angle y + 29 = 180 degree

90 + y + 29 = 180

119 + y = 180 (subtract 119 on both sides)

y= 61 degree

 (y+x) is the top angle for bigger triangle

From the outer triangle , 90 + (y+x) + 17 = 180

We know y = 61

90 + (61+x) + 17 = 180

90 + 61 + x 17 = 180

168 +x = 180(subtract 168 on both sides)

x= 12 degrees

Nanci needs at least $140 for her vacation this summer. She already has $25 and she is selling homemade bracelets for $3.00 each
Charra [1.4K]

Please look at the screenshot below, for some reason Brainly won't let me post my answer.

What I mean about "not fully written" is its impartial. It didn't ask us something like "find how many bracelets she needs to sell"
