Answer:

P(x > 10) = 0.6981.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question:

n = 14, p = 0.8

P(x>10)

P(x > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)

In which

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

P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.8)^{11}.(0.2)^{3} = 0.2501

P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.8)^{12}.(0.2)^{2} = 0.2501

P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.8)^{13}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.1539

P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.8)^{14}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.0440

P(x > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.2501 + 0.2501 + 0.1539 + 0.0440 = 0.6981

So P(x > 10) = 0.6981.

Arada [10]
Cost of bag of soil = x-3 where x is the price of a flower pot
41=3x + 5(x-3)
41=3x + 5x -15
41=8x -15
41+15=8x

1. One week a student exercised 3 hours at school and 1/4 hour at home. If 1/4 of the student's total exercise came from playing
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1- The student spent 48 minutes and 45 seconds playing basketball.

2- The student spent 33 minutes and 45 seconds playing soccer.

Step-by-step explanation:

1- If during a week the student exercised for 3 hours at school, and for 1/4 hour at home, it could be said that the student exercised for a total of 195 minutes (60 x 3 + 60/4) . Now, if I exercise 1/4 of that time playing basketball, the student spent 48 minutes and 45 seconds playing that sport (195/4).

2- If during a week the student exercised for 2 hours at school, and for 1/4 hour at home, it could be said that the student exercised for a total of 135 minutes (60 x 2 + 60/4) . Now, if I exercise 1/4 of that time playing basketball, the student spent 33 minutes and 45 seconds playing soccer (135/4).
