Answer:

P(x = 5) = 0.2441

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p = 0.48 --- proportion that have very little confidence

n = 10 --- sample

Required

Determine the probability that exactly 5 have very little confidence

This question will be solved using binomial probability:

P(x) = ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

In this case: x = 5.

So, we have:

P(x = 5) = ^{10}C_5*0.48^5(1-0.48)^{10-5}

P(x = 5) = ^{10}C_5*0.48^5*0.52^5

P(x = 5) = 252*0.48^5*0.52^5

P(x = 5) = 0.2441

PLEASE HELP ME 3X+1/14=2X/8 WHAT IS  X? EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER
balandron [24]
Cross-multiply so that 8(3x + 1) = 14(2x)

Distribute the 8 and 14 into the parentheses:
24x + 8 = 28x

Subtract 24x from both sides:
8 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:
x = 2

34. The diagram shows a sector of a circle of radius 10 cm.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

rc  length  =  10 * 8pi/5

 =   16pi

This is the circumference of the base

(a)   2pir     =   16pi  where  r  =  radius of base

  2r     =    16

   r     =  8 cm

(b)   10^2    =   h^2   +  8^2

 h^2    =   100  -  64

  =    36

h      =    6 cm
