Suppose there is a game where there are 5 identical boxes to choose from. One of these boxes has a
prize. Each time the game is played, the prize is randomly placed in one of the 5 boxes. If someone
were to play this game 4 times in a row, what is the probability this person will win the prize exactly 2
times?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1536

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution with 2 successes in 4 trials.

The chance of a success is 1/5 =  0.2.

So there needs to be 2 successes and 2 failures in the 4 plays.

Reqd. Probability is 4C2*(0.2)^2(0.8)^2

= 0.1536.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The top left angle is 55 (alternate interior angles).

x + 100 + 55 = 180                     All triangles are made up of 180 degrees

x + 155 = 180                             Subtract 155 from both sides.

x = 180 - 155                              Combine

x = 25

Answer: x = 25°Step-by-step explanation:=> 55 + 100 + x = 180 [The '100' came into this equation because of vertically opposite angles.]=> 155 + x = 180=> x = 25°Conclusion:

Hence, 'x = 25°' is the value of 'x'

Step-by-step explanation:

Pat is required to sell candy bars to raise money for the 6th grade field trip. There is a 40%
chance of him selling a candy bar at each house. He has to sell 5 candy bars in all. Let X be
of number of houses it takes.
i. Name distribution (with parameter(s)) of X.
ii. What is the probability he sells his last candy bar at the 11th house?
iii. What is the probability of Pat finishing on or before the 8th house?

Answers

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events.

The given parameters:

[tex]n = 5[/tex] ---- the number of candy bars

[tex]p = 40\%[/tex] ---- the probability of selling a candy bar

(a) Name distributions

The distribution of X is represented as:

[tex]X \sim(r,p)[/tex]

Where:

[tex]r = 5[/tex]

[tex]p= \frac{5\times 40\%}{10}[/tex]

[tex]p= 0.2[/tex]

So, the name distribution of X is [tex]X \sim(r= 5,p = 0.2)[/tex]

(b) The probability that the last candy is sold at the 11th house

This means that:

[tex]n = 10[/tex] --- the number of previous houses

[tex]r = 4[/tex] --- the previous number of candies

[tex]p = 0.4[/tex] --- the given probability of selling a candy

The probability is calculated using:

[tex]P(x = n+1) = ^{n}C_r \times p^{r +1} \times (1 - p)^{n-r}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]P(x = 10+1) = ^{10}C_4 \times 0.4^{4 +1} \times (1 - 0.4)^{10-4}[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 11) = ^{10}C_4 \times 0.4^{5} \times (0.6)^6[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 11) = 210 \times 0.4^5 \times 0.6^6[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 11) = 0.1003290624[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]P(x = 11) = 0.1003[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the last candy is sold at the 11th house is 0.1003

(b) The probability he sells the candies on or before the 8th house

The probability is calculated using:

[tex]P(x \le 8) = P(5 \le x \le 8)[/tex]

This gives

[tex]P(x \le 8) = ^{10}C_5 \times 0.4^{6} \times (0.6)^5 + ^{10}C_6 \times 0.4^{7} \times (0.6)^4 + ^{10}C_7 \times 0.4^{8} \times (0.6)^3 +^{10}C_8 \times 0.4^{9} \times (0.6)^2[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 11) = 0.1737[/tex] ---- approximated

Hence, the probability he sells the candies on or before the 8th house is 0.1737

The group of points {(0, 1), (0, 5), (2, 6), (3, 3)} is not a function, but the group of points {(1, 4), (2, 7), (3, 1), (5, 7)} is a function. What do you notice about the two groups of points? What do you think it means to be a function?

Answers

You can use the definition of a function to classify which mapping is a function and which mapping is not a function.

The first group is not a function as there are two outputs for 0

The second group is a function as there are single output to each input.

What is a function?

There are two sets of values. When we connect first set's values with other set, it is called mapping one set's value to other set. All type of mappings are called relations.

Such relations which are such that each element of the first set(also called input set or domain) is mapped to only one value of the other set(called codomain, and if all values are occupied, then called range or output set), then such relation is called function.

So, for a mapping to be function, we need each input to be mapped to only one output.

Using above definition

For group 1, we see that 0 has output 1 and output 5 both. Since for a mapping to be a function, we need each input to have single output, thus, this group doesn't represent a function.

For group 2, we see that each input has only one output, thus,this group represents a function.

Remember that we assumed that the pair of points were written as

(input, output)

Thus.

The first group is not a function as there are two outputs for 0

The second group is a function as there are single output to each input.

a fancy beaded bracelet requires 3 and 1/4 in of string for everyone in of the length of the bracelet if you were to make a bracelet that is 7 1/2 in long how much string would you need

Answers

Answer:

I'm going to call the length of the bracelet the number of times you have to add to get back to the first bead. This is the same as the number of beads, except in one case:

The shortest bracelet has length 1 and starts with (0,0). If you add one time, you get back to the first 0. But the bracelet has two beads. (Every bracelet has to have at least two beads to start.)

The next shortest bracelet starts with (0,5), and has length 3:

0 5 5

There is a bracelet of length 4 that starts with (2,6) (the first example on the main page):

2 6 8 4

There is a bracelet of length 12 that starts with (1,3) (the second example on the main page):

1 3 4 7 1 8 9 7 6 3 9 2

There is a bracelet of length 20 that starts with (0,4)

0 4 4 8 2 0 2 2 4 6 0 6 6 2 8 0 8 8 6 4

There is a bracelet of length 60 that starts with (0,1)
