This is a binomial experiment and you'll use the binomial probability distribution because:
- There are two choices for each birth. Either you get a girl or you get a boy. So there are two outcomes to each trial. This is where the "bi" comes from in "binomial" (bi means 2).
- Each birth is independent of any other birth. The probability of getting a girl is the same for each trial. In this case, the probability is p = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
- There are fixed number of trials. In this case, there are 5 births so n = 5 is the number of trials.
Since all of those conditions above are met, this means we have a binomial experiment.
Some textbooks may split up item #2 into two parts, but I chose to place them together since they are similar ideas.
Answer: the bridge is 11.025 m high
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that;
Time taken to hit the water t = 1.5 sec
height of bridge = ?
lets take a look at the equation of motion;
y(t) = y₀ + (1/2)at²
with initial velocity zero and we know that acceleration due to gravidity is 9.8m/s
we substitute
y(t) = (1/2)gt² = (1/2) × 9.8 × (1.5)²
y(t) = (1/2)gt² = (1/2) × 9.8 × (1.5)²
y(1.5) = 11.025 m
Therefore, the bridge is 11.025 m high
6*3 = 18
6*9 = 54
so 18 +54 is the correct answer
