Question 4 options: Find the mean and standard deviation for a binomial distribution with 680 trials and a probability of succes

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Mean for a binomial distribution = 374

Standard deviation for a binomial distribution = 12.97

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a binomial distribution with 680 trials and a probability of success of 0.55.

The above situation can be represented through Binomial distribution;

$P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r}p^{r} (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,.....$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 680 trials

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is 0.55

So, it means X ~ $Binom(n=680, p=0.55)$

Now, we have to find the mean and standard deviation of the given binomial distribution.

Mean of Binomial Distribution is given by;

E(X) = n $\times$ p

So, E(X) = 680 $\times$ 0.55 = 374

Standard deviation of Binomial Distribution is given by;

S.D.(X) = $\sqrt{n \times p \times (1-p)}$

= $\sqrt{680 \times 0.55 \times (1-0.55)}$

= $\sqrt{680 \times 0.55 \times 0.45}$ = 12.97

Therefore, Mean and standard deviation for binomial distribution is 374 and 12.97 respectively.

3(x + 1) = -2 (x - 1) -4

AlekseyPX

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

use distribution

3x + 3 = -2x + 2 - 4

simplify

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

combine like terms

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

-3x -3x

3 = -5x - 2

+2 +2

5 = -5x

/-5 /-5

-1 = x

Solve the equation 6w2 – 7w – 20 = 0.

azamat

For this case we have the following quadratic equation:

$6w ^ 2-7w-20 = 0$

Where:

$a = 6\\b = -7\\c = -20$

Its roots will be given by:

$w = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2 (a)}\\w = \frac {- (- 7) \pm \sqrt {(- 7) ^ 2-4 (6) (- 20)}} {2 (6)}\\w = \frac {7 \pm \sqrt {49 + 480}} {12}\\w = \frac {7 \pm \sqrt {529}} {12}\\w = \frac {7 \pm23} {12}$

The roots are:

$w_ {1} = \frac {7 + 23} {12} = \frac {30} {12} = \frac {15} {6} = \frac {5} {2}\\w_ {2} = \frac {7-23} {12} = \frac {-16} {12} = - \frac {8} {6} = - \frac {4} {3}$
