(i) The probability of failing to qualify on the first two jumps and succeeding on the third is

(1 - 0.8) (1 - 0.8) 0.8 = 0.032

In other words, if X is the random variable representing the first qualifying jump, then X is geometrically distributed and the probability of qualifying for the final round on exactly the n-th jump is

P(X=n) = (1-0.8)^{n-1}\times0.8

(ii) In order to qualify for the final round, David has to succeed on at least one jump. Let Y be the random variable representing how many successful jumps are made. Then Y is binomially distributed with

P(Y = n) = \dbinom3n 0.8^n\times(1-0.8)^{3-n}

The probability of succeeding at least once is

P(Y=1) + P(Y=2) + P(Y=3) \\\\ = \dbinom310.8(1-0.8)^2 + \dbinom320.8^2(1-0.8) + \dbinom33 0.8^3 = \boxed{0.992}

-------------------------------------------------------------
Equation
-------------------------------------------------------------
m + n² 

-------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute value of m and n into the equation
-------------------------------------------------------------
When m = 2, n = -2
m + n² = 2 + (-2)²
m + n² = 2 + 4
m + n² = 6

What is the area of a triangle with a height of 14 feet and a base of 10 feet​
timama [110]

Answer:

Area is 70ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is A=b × h/ 2 or A=1/2×bh

Let height equal h & base equal b

So,

h=14

b=10

Solve,

A=1/2×14×10

A=1/2×140

A=70

Therefore, the area is 70 feet
