Let's define the function P(x) for the probability of getting a parking space exactly x times over a 9 month period. it would be:
P(x) = (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x))*9!/(x!(9-x)!)
Let me explain the above. The raising of (0.3^x)(0.7^(9-x)) is the probability of getting exactly x successes and 9-x failures. Then we shuffle them in the 9! possible arrangements. But since we can't tell the differences between successes, we divide by the x! different ways of arranging the successes. And since we can't distinguish between the different failures, we divide by the (9-x)! different ways of arranging those failures as well. So P(4) = 0.171532242 meaning that there's a 17.153% chance of getting a parking space exactly 4 times.
Now all we need to do is calculate the sum of P(x) for x ranging from 4 to 9.
So
P(4) = 0.171532242
P(5) = 0.073513818
P(6) = 0.021003948
P(7) = 0.003857868
P(8) = 0.000413343
P(9) = 0.000019683
And
0.171532242 + 0.073513818 + 0.021003948 + 0.003857868 + 0.000413343
+ 0.000019683 = 0.270340902
So the probability of getting a parking space at least four out of the nine months is 27.034%
Answer:
2x-10+x+x+10=180, or 4x=180
Step-by-step explanation:
So since the total is 180, you add them all up like an equation.
So,
2x-10+x+x+10
Combine like terms
4x=180
x=45
Then plug it back in to the equations.
x=45
(2x-10)=80
(x+10)=55
Hello!
The numbers from least to greatest is -8, -5, 6, 11, 16
Hope this helps!
