Assume that random guesses are made for eight multiple choice questions on an SAT test, so that there are n= 8 trials, each with probability of success (correct) given by p=0.3. Find the indicated probability for the number of correct answers. Find the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.80589

Step-by-step explanation:

So all of the numbers of correct answers less than 4 are 0,1,2,3

We need to calculate the probability for each separately and then add them together.

To find the probability we have to first find the combination. We know that there’s n=8 trials and that p=0.3. So 1-0.3 gives us 0.7.

The combination formula is: ! / (!(−)!)

So the n would always =8, and the r would be 0,1,2,3. So you would have to calculate it for 0,1,2,3 Separately. This can be done by hand or you can use a simple combinations calculator online.

For 0;

The combination is 1,

1 x 0.3^0 x 0.7^8-0 =

0.057648

For 1;

The combination is 8,

8 x 0.3^1 x 0.7^8-1 =

0.19765

For 2;

The combination is 28

28 x 0.3^2 x 0.7^8-2 =

0.296475

For 3;

The combination is 56

56 x 0.3^3 x 0.7^8-3 =

0.254122

All that’s left is to add these four numbers;

0.057647 + 0.19765 + 0.296475 + 0.254122 = 0.80589

Answer 2

Using the principle of binomial probability, the probability of correct answers fewer than 4 is : 0.8059

Recall the binomial probability formula :

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

Where :

n = number of trials x < 4 p = probability of success = 0.3q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

P(x < 4) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 3)

Using a binomial probability calculator :

P(x = 0) = 0.0576P(x = 1) = 0.19765P(x = 2) = 0.29648P(x = 3) = 0.25412

Therefore,

P(x < 4) = (0.0576+0.19765+0.2965+0.25412) = 0.8059

[3x-2]÷4=2x-8

Can someone help

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[3x-2]÷4=2x-8

3x-2 = 4·(2x-8)

3x-2 = 8x-32

-2 = 5x-32

30 = 5x

x = 6

Answer:

(3x-2)/4= 2x-8  x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x-2)/4 times 4= 2x-8

Multiply both sides by 4

3x-2/4 times 4= 2x  times 4-8 time 4

Simplify

3x= 8x = 8x-30-8x

Subtract 8x from both sides

3x-8x=8x-30-8x

Simplify

-5x=-30

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = -30/-5

Simplify so you get x=6

Sqrt 5 because it’s an imperfect square. Fractions with integers are always rational and sqrt 9 is perfect so it is also an integer.

Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be written as simple fractions. All the numbers listed above except for [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] cannot be written as fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Find the slope

[tex]y+2=\frac{1}{4}(x-3)[/tex]

Subtract 2 from both sides

[tex]y+2-2=\frac{1}{4}(x-3) - 2[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{1}{4}(x-3) - 2[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}*3 - 2[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{3}{4} - 2[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]y=\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{-3 - 8}{4}[/tex]

and 1 red race car. Andy removes 2 race cars
from the toy box without looking. If Andy
removes a blue car first and does not replace
it, which best represents the sample space
for the cars Andy removes?

Answers

Answer:

c.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is Option C.

Sample space is  set A = { blue , blue } , { blue , green } , { blue , red }

What is union and intersection of sets?

The union of two sets A and B is the set of all those elements which are either in A or in B, i.e. A ∪ B, whereas the intersection of two sets A and B is the set of all elements which are common. The intersection of these two sets is denoted by A ∩ B

The union of two sets is a new set that contains all of the elements that are in at least one of the two sets

The intersection of two sets is a new set that contains all of the elements that are in both sets

Given data ,

Let the sample space be represented as set A

Now , the equation will be

The number of blue cars = 2 blue cars

The number of green cars = 1 green car

The number of red cars = 1 red car

So , the total number of cars = 2 + 1 + 1 = 4 cars

Now , Andy removes 2 race cars from the toy box without looking

Let the first removed car be a blue car

So , the second car can have any value including a blue , green or white

And , the sample space is given by set A

Set A = { blue , blue } , { blue , green } , { blue , red }

Hence , the set is { blue , blue } , { blue , green } , { blue , red }

A clothing outlet had a sale on jackets. A jacket priced at $233 was on sale, selling for 70% (use 0.7) of its price. How much did customers have to pay for the jacket (ignore taxes)?

Answers

Answer:
$163.10
Explanation:
70% = 7/10 = 0.7
$233 x 0.7 = $163.10

Answer:

Jackets cost $69.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply $233 by 70% (.70 as a decimal) to find how much less the jacket is.

2. Subtract that answer from the cost of the jacket.

233 * .70 = 163.1

233.00

163.10

$69.90

You can also multiply $233 by 30% and not have to subtract because your answer would BE the cost (70% + 30% = 100%).

233 * .30 = 69.90                 $69.90
