In an experiment, there are n independent trials. For each trial, there are three outcomes, A, B, and C. For each trial, the pro

bability of outcome A is 0.80; the probability of outcome B is 0.10; and the probability of outcome C is 0.10. Suppose there are 10 trials.
Can we use the binomial experiment model to determine the probability of four outcomes of type A, five of type B, and one of type C? Explain.

(A) Yes. A binomial probability model applies to three outcomes per trial.
(B) No. A binomial probability model applies to only two outcomes per trial.
(C) Yes. Each outcome has a probability of success and failure.
(D) No. A binomial probability model applies to only one outcome per trial.

Answer:

(B) No. A binomial probability model applies to only two outcomes per trial.

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial probability is the probability of having x sucesses on n repeated trials of an experiment that can only have two outcomes. This is why it is called the binomial probability.

Since in our problem there are three possible outcomes, the binomial probability cannot be used.

The correct answer is (B)

(B) No. A binomial probability model applies to only two outcomes per trial.

here are 1515 people in an office with 55 different phone lines. If all the lines begin to ring at once, how many groups of 55 p
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

360,360 groups of 5 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are 15 people in an office with 5 different phone lines. We are asked to find groups of 5 people that can answer these lines, if all the lines begin to ring at once.

We will use fundamental principle of counting to solve our given problem.

There are 15 people to answer 1st line, that will leave us with 14 people to answer 2nd line.

Now, we will have 13 people to answer 3rd line, that will leave us with 12 people to answer 4th line.

There are 11 people to answer 5th call.

So 5 lines can be answered in 15\times 14\times 13\times 12\times 11=360,360 ways.

Therefore, 360,360 groups of 5 people can answer these lines.

The question is given in the picture.

This is a really interesting question! One thing that we can notice right off the bat is that each of the circles has the same amount of area swept out of it - namely, the amount swept out by one of the interior angles of the hexagon. Let’s call that interior angle θ. We know that the amount of area swept out in the circle is proportional to the angle swept out - mathematically

θ/360 = a/A

Where “a” is the area swept out by θ, and A is the area of the whole circle, which, given a radius of r, is πr^2. Substituting this in, we have

θ/360 = a/(πr^2)

Solving for “a”:

a = π(r^2)θ/360

So, we have the formula for the area of one of those sectors; all we need to do now is find θ and multiply our result by 6, since we have 6 circles. We can preempt this but just multiplying both sides of the formula by 6:

6a = 6π(r^2)θ/360

Which simplifies to

6a = π(r^2)θ/60

Now, how do we find θ? Let’s look first at the exterior angles of a hexagon. Imagine if you were taking a walk around a hexagon. At each corner, you turn some angle and keep walking. You make 6 turns in all, and in the end, you find yourself right back at the same place you started; you turned 360 degrees in total. On a regular hexagon, you’d turn by the same angle at each corner, which means that each of the six turns is 360/6 = 60 degrees. Since each interior and exterior angle pair up to make 180 degrees (a straight line), we can simply subtract that exterior angle from 180 to find θ, obtaining an angle of 180 - 60 = 120 degrees.

Finally, we substitute θ into our earlier formula to find that

6a = π(r^2)120/60

Or

6a = 2πr^2

So, the area of all six sectors is 2πr^2, or the area of two circles with radii r.

Writing unit fractions to add or subtract.
Ivahew [28]

1/3 + 1/6

---Find a common denominator, or the least common multiple of the given denominators. In this case, that would be 6.

1/3 = 2/6

1/6 = 1/6

---Now add the fractions

2/6 + 1/6

3/6

---Simplify/Reduce the fraction

3/6

1/2

Answer: 1/2

1/3 + 1/6 = 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 (or 1/2)

Hope this helps!
