Answer:

A darts player practices throwing a dart at the bull’s eye on a dart board. Her probability of hitting the bull’s eye for each throw is 0.2.

(a) Find the probability that she is successful for the first time on the third throw:

The number F of unsuccessful throws till the first bull’s eye follows a geometric

distribution with probability of success q = 0.2 and probability of failure p = 0.8.

If the first bull’s eye is on the third throw, there must be two failures:

P(F = 2) = p

2

q = (0.8)2

(0.2) = 0.128.

(b) Find the probability that she will have at least three failures before her first

success.

We want the probability of F ≥ 3. This can be found in two ways:

P(F ≥ 3) = P(F = 3) + P(F = 4) + P(F = 5) + P(F = 6) + . . .

= p

3

q + p

4

q + p

5

q + p

6

q + . . . (geometric series with ratio p)

=

p

3

q

1 − p

=

(0.8)3

(0.2)

1 − 0.8

= (0.8)3 = 0.512.

Alternatively,

P(F ≥ 3) = 1 − (P(F = 0) + P(F = 1) + P(F = 2))

= 1 − (q + pq + p

2

q)

= 1 − (0.2)(1 + 0.8 + (0.8)2

)

= 1 − 0.488 = 0.512.

(c) How many throws on average will fail before she hits bull’s eye?

Since p = 0.8 and q = 0.2, the expected number of failures before the first success

is

E[F] = p

q

=

0.8

0.2

= 4.

What is the simplified version of 3\sqrt{135}
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified version of \sqrt[3]{135} is 3\sqrt[3]{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\sqrt[3]{135}

According to the property of radical expression.

\sqrt[n]{x}=(x)^{\frac{1}{n}}

Using this property we get

\sqrt[3]{135}=(135)^{\frac{1}{3}}

\sqrt[3]{135}=(27\times 5)^{\frac{1}{3}}

\sqrt[3]{135}=(3^3\times 5)^{\frac{1}{3}}

\sqrt[3]{135}=(3^3)^{\frac{1}{3}}\times (5)^{\frac{1}{3}}      [\because (ab)^x=a^xb^x]

\sqrt[3]{135}=3\times \sqrt[3]{5}     [\because \sqrt[n]{x}=(x)^{\frac{1}{n}}]

\sqrt[3]{135}=3\sqrt[3]{5}

Therefore the simplified version of \sqrt[3]{135} is 3\sqrt[3]{5}.

I need help with solving it
mars1129 [50]

The given equation has a slope of \frac{-9}{7}.  Parallel lines have the same slope.

Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  ; where (x₁, y₁) is the point and "m" is slope

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-4) = \frac{-9}{7}(x - 2)

y + 4 = \frac{-9}{7}x + \frac{18}{7}

<u>  - 4</u>     <u>       - \frac{28}{7}</u>

   y = \frac{-9}{7}x - <u>\frac{10}{7}</u>
