A student takes a multiple choice test with 40 questions. The probability that a student answers a given question correctly is 0

.5, independent of all other questions. The probability that the student answers more than N questions correctly is greater than 0.10. The probability that the student answers more than N+1 questions correctly is less than 0.10. Calculate N using normal approximation with continuity correction. Answer is 23. Please explain your work.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X no of questions student answers is binomial with n =40 and p =0.5

If approximated to normal, X is Normal with

mean = np = 20 and variance = npq = 10

P(X>N) >0.10

We use std normal distribution table to get z value first then convert to x value

z>-1.28

So x>20-1.28(10) = 20-12.8 = 7.2

This is with continuity correction.

Hence without continuity correction this equals 7.2-0.5 = 6.7

x>6.7

n = 7

An arrow is shot vertically upward at a rate of 280 feet per second. Use the projectile formula
vfiekz [6]

Time is 16.75 seconds when the arrow reaches 200 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find time at height of 200 ft

Height = 200 ft

v = 280 ft/s

Projectile formula, h = -16t² + vt

⇒ 200 = -16t² + 280t

⇒ 16t² - 280t + 200 = 0

⇒ 2t² - 35t + 25 = 0 (dividing by common factor 8)

Using quadratic formula to find t

t = (35 ±√35² - 4×2×25)/2×2

t = (35 ±√1225 - 200)4 = 35 ± 32.02/4

∴ t = 67/4 or 3/4  

t = 16.75 seconds
