Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$a^{(\dfrac{b}{4})} = 16\\\\\\Both \ sides \ raise \ to \ 4\\\\(a^{\dfrac{b}{4}})^{4} = 16^{4}\\\\a^{\dfrac{b}{4}*4}=16^{4}\\\\a^{b}=16^{4}$

The probability that a certain hockey team will win any given game is 0.3723 based on their 13 year win history of 385 wins out

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.1505 = 15.05% probability that the hockey team wins 6 games in November

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the team wins, or it does not. The probability of winning a game is independent of winning other games. 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.

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