The given problem describes a binomial distribution with p = 60% = 0.6. Given that there are 400 trials, i.e. n = 400.
a.) The mean is given by:

The standard deviation is given by:

b.) The mean means that in an experiment of 400 adult smokers, we expect on the average to get about 240 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years.
c.) It would be unusual to observe <span>340 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 400 adult smokers because 340 is far greater than the mean of the distribution.
340 is greater than 3 standard deviations from the mean of the distribution.</span>
Answer:
The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7
Step-by-step explanation:
First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie
1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8
So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48
2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie
So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08
Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56
But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7
Answer:
Total amount Silas and Raja has at first = $252
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Amount Silas had = x
Amount Raja had = y
According to given statement;
x = 3y Eqn 1
x-84 = y+42 Eqn 2
Putting value of x from Eqn 1 in Eqn 2
3y - 84 = y+42
3y-y = 42+84
2y = 126
Dividing both sides by 2

Putting y = 63 in Eqn 1
x = 63(3)
x = 189
Total amount they had = 189 + 63 = $252
Hence,
Total amount Silas and Raja has at first = $252
Answer:
a=bh/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1 = 1/x -2
add 2 to both sides
3 = 1/x
x = 1/3
