Answer:

(x = -20) if what your saying is 6 = -2x - 4 and (x = -16) if what your saying is x = -2 x 6 - 4

Answer:

a) $X \sim Binom(n=16, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

The expected value is given by this formula:

$E(X) = np=16*0.2=3.2$

b) $P(X=0)=(16C0)(0.2)^{0} (1-0.2)^{16-0}=0.02815$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=16, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

The expected value is given by this formula:

$E(X) = np=16*0.2=3.2$

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X=0)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

And using this function we got:

$P(X=0)=(16C0)(0.2)^{0} (1-0.2)^{16-0}=0.02815$

Komok [63]

Answer: Experimental probability

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two kinds of probability: Theoretical probability and Experimental probability.

To calculate theoretical probability we divide favorable outcomes by total outcomes.

To calculate experimental probability we divide number of times an event occurs by the total number of trials or times the activity is performed.

Here, A child gets 20 heads out of 30 tosses of a coin. If he declared the chance of getting a head with that coin were 2/3, which is dependent on the activity he performed, thus it is an experimental probability.

Find the 90 th derivative of the function ƒ(x)=cos(x)

Inessa [10]

F(x) = cos x
f'(x) = -sin x
f''(x) = -cos x
f'''(x) = sin x
f''''(x) = cos x

90/4 = 22 Remainder 2
Therefore, 90th derivative of f(x) = cos x is -cos x.
