Answer:

Mean = 2

Standard deviation = 1.356

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Probability of taxpayers that make mistakes when filling out forms: p = 0.08

Sample size; n = 25

In binomial distribution;

Means is;

μ = np

Thus;

μ = 25 × 0.08

μ = 2

Formula for standard deviation here is;

σ = √(np(1 - p))

σ = √(25 × 0.08(1 - 0.08))

σ = 1.356

Romashka [77]

Answer:

819

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • a = -1
  • r = - 4
  • n = 6

Formula

*The missing image is attached with the answer*

The correct answer is: Height = h =5 units

Explanation:
a = 6 = Smaller base
b = 10 = Larger base
h = height
