Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property. Then use exponent law.

Exponent law used here = $a^{m}*a^{n}=a^{m+n}$

$-p^{2}(p^{2} - p - 1) = -p^{2}*p^{2} - p *(-p^{2}) - 1*(-p^{2}) \\\\= -p^{4} + p^{3}+p^{2}$

A number plus itself, plus twice itself, plus 4 times itself is equal to -104

NARA [144]

The scenario will will be represented by: $x+x+2x+4x=-104$

The number will be -13

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert the given situation into the mathematical form

Let x be the number

Then

"a number plus itself"

x+x

"plus twice itself"

x+x+2x

"plus 4 times itself"

x+x+2x+4x

"is equal to -104"

$x+x+2x+4x=-104$

This can also be written as:

$x+x+2x+4x=-104\\8x=-104\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 8\\\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{-104}{8}\\x=-13$

Nitella [24]

Answer:

a) 0.0245 = 2.45%

b) 0.9483 = 94.83%

c) 0.6931 = 69.31%

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are independent, or they are not. The probability of a person being independent is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

It is believed that 12% of voters are independent.

This means that $p = 0.12$

Survey of 29 people

This means that $n = 29$

a. what is the probability that none of the people are independent? probability =

This is P(X = 0). So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{29,0}.(0.12)^{0}.(0.88)^{29} = 0.0245$

0.0245 = 2.45% probability that none of the people are independent

b. what is the probability that fewer than 7 are independent? probability =

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{29,0}.(0.12)^{0}.(0.88)^{29} = 0.0245$

$P(X = 1) = C_{29,1}.(0.12)^{1}.(0.88)^{28} = 0.0971$

$P(X = 2) = C_{29,2}.(0.12)^{2}.(0.88)^{27} = 0.1853$

$P(X = 3) = C_{29,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{26} = 0.2274$

$P(X = 4) = C_{29,4}.(0.12)^{4}.(0.88)^{25} = 0.2016$

$P(X = 5) = C_{29,5}.(0.12)^{5}.(0.88)^{24} = 0.1374$

$P(X = 6) = C_{29,6}.(0.12)^{6}.(0.88)^{23} = 0.0750$

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0245 + 0.0971 + 0.1853 + 0.2274 + 0.2016 + 0.1374 + 0.0750 = 0.9483$
