Answer:

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each entry form, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it includes an order, or it does not. The probability of an entry including an order is independent of any other entry, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The Magazine Mass Marketing Company has received 16 entries in its latest sweepstakes.

This means that $n = 16$

They know that the probability of receiving a magazine subscription order with an entry form is 0.5.

This means that $p = 0.5$

What is the probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order?

At most 3 including an order, which is:

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{16,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{16} \approx 0$

$P(X = 1) = C_{16,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 2) = C_{16,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{14} = 0.0018$

$P(X = 3) = C_{16,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{13} = 0.0085$

Then

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0 + 0.0002 + 0.0018 + 0.0085 = 0.0105$

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

16 increased by twice a number is -24 what is the solution?

Lynna [10]

Let x = the number.

"increased by" tells you we are adding.

"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.

16 + 2x = - 24

Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.

2x = - 24 - 16

2x = - 40

Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.

x = - 40/2 = - 20

Your solution is - 20.

To check your answer, plug in.

16 + 2(-20) = - 24

16 - 40 = - 24

- 24 = - 24

Jack is at the zoo looking up at a monkey

sasho [114]

The height of the pole at which the monkey is at the top is 10.2 feet.

<h3>Trigonometric ratio</h3>

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the angles and sides of a right angled triangle.

Let h represent the height of the pole, hence using trigonometric ratio:

tan(23) = h/24

h = 10.2 feet

The height of the pole at which the monkey is at the top is 10.2 feet.
