Step-by-step answer:
Given:
mean, mu = 200 m
standard deviation, sigma = 30 m
sample size, N = 5
Maximum deviation for no damage, D = 100 m
Solution:
Z-score for maximum deviation
= (D-mu)/sigma
= (100-200)/30
= -10/3
From normal distribution tables, the probability of right tail with
Z= - 10/3
is 0.9995709, which represents the probability that the parachute will open at 100m or more.
Thus, by the multiplication rule, the probability that all five parachutes will ALL open at 100m or more is the product of the individual probabilities, i.e.
P(all five safe) = 0.9995709^5 = 0.9978565
So there is an approximately 1-0.9978565 = 0.214% probability that at least one of the five parachutes will open below 100m

Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
By the binomial theorem,
I assume you meant to say "independent", not "indecent", meaning we're looking for the constant term in the expansion. This happens for k such that
12 - 3k = 0 ===> 3k = 12 ===> k = 4
which corresponds to the constant coefficient
