Answer:

0.9958

Step-by-step explanation:

P(being correct) = 1/4 = 0.25

Hence, p = 0.25

n = 19

P(x ≥ 1) = p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) +... + p(x = 19)

Using the binomial probability formula :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

However, to save computation time, we could use a calculator :

Using a calculator,

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.99577

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.9958

7 times a number is 8 less than the square of that number. Find the negative solution.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The required relation is ...

  7n = n^2 -8

  0 = n^2 -7n -8 . . . . put in standard form

  0 = (n -8)(n +1) . . . . factor

Solutions are n=8 and n=-1.

The negative solution is -1.

All 10,000 California students in the beginning of 8th grade are given an entrance exam that will allow them to attend a top aca
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

This year the mean on the entrance exam was an 82 with a standard deviation of 4.5.

This means that \mu = 82, \sigma = 4.5

a.What is the percentage of students who have the chance to attend the charter school?

Students who achieve a score of 92 or greater are admitted, which means that the proportion is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 92. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{92 - 82}{4.5}

Z = 2.22

Z = 2.22 has a pvalue of 0.9868

1 - 0.9868 = 0.0132

0.0132*100% = 1.32%

1.32% of students have the chance to attend the charter school.

HELP!!!! PLEASE I NEED HELP!!!!
NNADVOKAT [17]

for the first one it is the second option because of one property of logarithms:

log(a)-log(b)=log\frac{a}{b}

for the second one using the same property we can say that we third option is correct and not the second one but we use one more property of the logarithm

loga(b)^x=xloga(b) the power of the logarithm becomes a fator and \sqrt[3]{x} is equal to x^{\frac{1}{3}}
