Customers at a gas station pay with a credit card (A), debit card (B), or cash (C). Assume that successive customers make indepe

ndent choices with P(A) = 0.6, P(B) = 0.3, and P(C) = 0.1.
(a) Among the next 100 customers, what are the mean and variance of the number who pay with a debit card?

Answer:

Mean = 20

Variance = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Let X be the number of customers paying with a debit card.  X has the binomial distribution with n = 100 trials and success probability p = 0.2  

- In general, if X has the binomial distribution with (n) trials and a success probability of (p) then:

                 P[X = x] = n!/(x!(n-x)!) * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)

                 for values of x = 0, 1, 2, ..., n  

                 P[X = x] = 0 for any other value of x.

- The probability mass function is derived by looking at the number of combination of x objects chosen from n objects and then a total of x success and n - x failures.  

- Or, in other words, the binomial is the sum of n independent and identically distributed Bernoulli trials.

                  X ~ Binomial( n = 100 , p = 0.2 )

- The mean of the binomial distribution is n * p = 20  

- The variance of the binomial distribution is n * p * (1 - p) = 16

The triangle below is isosceles. Find the length of side xx in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Solution given:

Since the given triangle is isosceles and right angled triangle

perpendicular [p]=base[b]=x

hypotenuse [h]=6

we have

by using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

x²+x²=6²

2x²=36

x²=36/2

x²=18

x=\sqrt{18}

<u>x</u>=\bold{3\sqrt{2}}
