D because you have to distribute the twelve to complete the equation
Answer:
<u>210</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the order of operations pemdas( <u>p</u>arenthesis, <u>e</u>xponent, <u>m</u>ultiply, <u>d</u>ivide, <u>a</u>dd, <u>s</u>ubtract)
first do everything within the parenthesis.
3 ( ( 3 (9-2) ) + ( 7 (8-1) ) )
3 ( ( 3 (7) + ( 7 ( 7 ) ) )
3 ( ( (21) + (49) ) ) )
3 ( ( 21 + 49 ) )
3 ( 70 )
3 (70) = 70 + 70 + 70 = 140 + 70 = 210
This is an example of binomial probability (pass/fail), with n=8 and p(failure)=0.3.
The probability that none will fail is binompdf(8,0.3,0) = 0.0576.
The prob. that all will fail is found by subtracting this result from 1.0000, and is 1.0000-0.0576=0.9424. "All" is the "complement" of "None."
I used my TI-83 Plus calculator's probability distribution functions to calculate the probability that none will fail.
