Five students share the writing of a term
paper evenly. If each person writes more
than six pages, how long is the paper?

Answer:

C. X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

a) There is a 0.0501 = 5.01% probability that you need to contact four people.

b) You expect to contact 1.82 students until you find one who lives within five miles of you.

c) The standard deviation is of 1.22 students.

d) 0.3369 = 33.69% probability that 3 of them live within five miles of you.

e) It is expected that 2.75 students live within five miles of you.

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they live within 5 miles of you, or they do not. The probability of a student living within 5 miles of you is independent of any other student, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

In this problem:

Item a:

This probability is P(X = 0) when n = 3(none of the first three) multiplied by 0.55(the fourth does live within five miles), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.55)^{0}.(0.45)^{3} = 0.091125[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.091125(0.55) = 0.0501[/tex]

0.0501 = 5.01% probability that you need to contact four people.

Item b:

The expected number of trials in the binomial distribution until q successes is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{q}{p}[/tex]

In this problem, [tex]p = 0.55[/tex], and 1 trial, thus [tex]q = 1[/tex], hence:

[tex]E = \frac{1}{0.55} = 1.82[/tex]

You expect to contact 1.82 students until you find one who lives within five miles of you.

Item c:

The standard deviation of the number of trials until q successes are found is given by:

[tex]S = \frac{\sqrt{q(1 - p)}}{p}[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]S = \frac{\sqrt{0.45}}{0.55} = 1.22[/tex]

The standard deviation is of 1.22 students.

Item d:

This probability is P(X = 3) when n = 5, hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.55)^{3}.(0.45)^{2} = 0.3369[/tex]

0.3369 = 33.69% probability that 3 of them live within five miles of you.

Item e:

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]E(X) = 5(0.55) = 2,75[/tex]

It is expected that 2.75 students live within five miles of you.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Today only, a sofa is being sold at a 32% discount. The sale price is $289.

What was the price yesterday?

289 is 68%                          (100% - 32% = 68%)

289 : 68 * 100 =

425

--------------------------

check

425 - 32% = 289

Answer:

[tex]\sf k + 6 > -37[/tex]

[tex]\sf k+6-6>-37-6[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\sf k>-43}[/tex]

Answer:

Subtract 6 from both sides:

K +6 - 6 > - 37 - 6

Simplify the arithmetic:

k > - 37 - 6

Simplify the arithmetic

k > - 43

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

the median is the "Middle" number of the set.21 and 25 are the middle numbers of the set. so now find the middle of 21 and 25.

21 22 23 24 25

23 is the median of the data set

Answer: 1/12 of the cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 3 and 4. The easiest way to do this is to multiply the two together. 3*4 = 12.

Now, convert each fraction to be out of twelfths. Do this by setting up a proportion. 2/3 = x/12. Cross multiply and divide. 2*12 = 24. 24/3 = 8. Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12.

Do the same for 1/4. 1/4 = x/12. Cross multiply and divide. 12*1 = 12. 12/4 = 3. Therefore, 1/4 = 3/12.

Now add these two fractions by adding the numerators and keeping the denominators the same. 8/12 + 3/12 = 11/12.

Subtract this answer from 1 (12/12). 12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12

Hello, hope you are having a nice day.

Let's solve this equation for j. The first step is to combine like terms.

19j-18j=12

j=12

So j is 12. This is the answer.

Answer:

[tex]L=\frac{1}{2}P-W[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for L.

[tex]P=2L+2W[/tex]

Step 1: Flip the equation.

[tex]2L+2W=P[/tex]

Step 2: Add [tex]-2W[/tex] to both sides.

[tex]2L+2W+-2W=P+-2W[/tex]

[tex]2L=P-2W[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by [tex]2[/tex].

[tex]\frac{2L}{2}=\frac{P-2W}{2}[/tex]

[tex]L=\frac{1}{2}P-W[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]L=\frac{1}{2}P-W[/tex]

x1 and y1 are the coordinates of the first point. The second point's coordinates are x2, y2.
