Binomial probability A JHB car Salesman found that 1 out of 5 of consultations result is a sale. If on the

randomly selected day he makes eight 8 consultations what is the probability that he will make.

3. 1 At most, one sale

3. 2 At least one sale

3. 3 Two or three sales

3. 4 Six sales

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

3.1 There is a 0.5033 = 50.33% probability that he makes at most one sale.

3.2 There is a 0.8322 = 83.22% probability that he makes at least one sale.

3.3. There is a 0.4404 = 44.04% probability that he makes two or three sales.

3.4. There is a 0.0011 = 0.11% probability that he makes six sales.

What is the binomial distribution formula?

The formula is:

[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:

x is the number of successes.n is the number of trials.p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

1 out of 5 of consultations result is a sale, hence p = 1/5 = 0.2.8 consultations are considered, hence n = 8.

Item 1:

The probability that he makes at most one sale is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

Then:

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{8} = 0.1678[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{8,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{7} = 0.3355[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1678 + 0.3355 = 0.5033[/tex]

There is a 0.5033 = 50.33% probability that he makes at most one sale.

Item 2:

The probability that he makes at least one sale is:

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.1678 = 0.8322.

There is a 0.8322 = 83.22% probability that he makes at least one sale.

Item 3:

The probability that he makes two or three sales is given by:

[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

In which:

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{8,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{6} = 0.2936[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{8,1}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{5} = 0.1468[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(2 \leq X \leq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.2936 + 0.1468 = 0.4404[/tex]

There is a 0.4404 = 44.04% probability that he makes two or three sales.

Item 4:

The probability that he makes six sales is P(X = 6), hence:

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

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{8,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.0011[/tex]

There is a 0.0011 = 0.11% probability that he makes six sales.

A. 2/5
B. 1/25
C. 4/20
D. 1/20

Answers

Answer:

[B] 1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given:

There are letter tiles in a bag. Four A’s, five B’s, six C’s and five D’s. You select one tile, replace it, and then draw another.

To Find:

P( A and A)=______

Solution:

Since it given that:

Four A’s, five B’s, six C’s and five D’s.

Thus we have:

A,A,A,A,B,B,B,B,B,C,C,C,C,C,C,D,D,D,D,D

Total number of letters tiles = 20

Probability of selecting A = 4/20  = 1/5

Probability of selecting A  = 4/20 = 1/5

P( A and A)= 1/5 × 1/5 = 1/25

Thus, the answer is [B] 1/25

The surface area of a cylinder is 432 pi yd2. The height of the cylinder is five times the radius. What is the diameter of the cylinder?

Answers

Since the surface area of this cylinder is [tex]432\pi \;yd^2[/tex], its diameter is equal to 12 yards.

How to calculate surface area.

Mathematically, the surface area (SA) of a cylinder is given by this formula:

[tex]S.A = 2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2[/tex]

Where:

h is the height.r is the radius.

Given the following data:

Surface area of cylinder = [tex]432\pi \;yd^2[/tex]Height = 5r.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]432\pi = 2\pi r(5r) + 2\pi r^2\\\\432\pi = 2\pi 5r^2 + 2\pi r^2\\\\216=5r^2+r^2\\\\216=6r^2\\\\r^2=36\\\\r=\sqrt{36}[/tex]

r = 6 yards.

For the diameter:

Diamter = 2 x radius

Diamter = 2 x 6

Diameter = 12 yards.

What is the isosceles triangle?

A triangle with two sides and two congruent angles is called an isosceles triangle.

Here,
Let one of the angles be x
Sum of angles = 180
40 + 70 + x = 180

the area of a square is 32 cm. find the length of the diagonal

Answers

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Squares have equal side lengths so if we call each side x, then x × x gives us the area (32 cm²). This means that x² = 32 and therefore, one side is √32 cm.

Next, to work out the diagonal we can use Pythagoras' theory, since we can form a right-angled triangle. a² + b² = c² (c is the diagonal or the hypotenuse)

(√32)² + (√32)² = c²

(note: the square and the square root cancel out)

32 + 32 = 64

c² = 64 ∴ c = √64 which is 8

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The length of the diagonal is 8 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length of the square is √32 cms.

The diagonal divide the square into 2 congruent right triangles.

We use Pythagoras Theorem here:

d^2 = (√32)^2 +  (√32)^2

d^2 = 32 + 32 = 64

d = √64 = 8.

Answers

The area of the shaded region of this figure which can be calculated by the difference of the larger region from the smaller region would be 104 in.²

What is the area of the rectangle?

The area of the rectangle is the product of the length and width of a given rectangle.

The area of the rectangle = length × Width

Area of a larger rectangle

= Length × Width

= 18 × 12

= 216 in.²

Area of the smaller rectangle

Length = 12 - 2 - 2 = 8 in.

Width = 18 - 2 - 2 = 14 in.

= Length × Width

= 8 × 14

= 112 in.²

Area of the shaded region = Area of a larger rectangle - Area of the smaller rectangle

= 216 - 112

= 104 in.²

Hence, the area of the shaded region of this figure is 104 in.²

find the missing length of the triangle using Pythagoras then use this value (8) to find the surface area of the sides and the triangle.Add up the values.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the lateral surface area of triangular prism, first we need to know the three sides of the triangle. Here, one side is missing and we have to find that using Pythagorean theorem. Let the unknow side of the triangle be 'c'

Pythagorean theorem,

15² + c² = 17²

225 + c² = 289

         c² = 289 - 225

         c² = 64 = 8*8

c = 8 in

a = 17 in & b = 15 in & h = 18 in

[tex]\boxed { \text{Lateral surface area = (a + b + c)*h }}[/tex]

                                = ( 17 + 15  + 8 ) * 18

                                = 40 * 18

                                = 720 in²

[tex]\boxed { \text{total surface area = LSA + 2* area of base triangles}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{ area of base triangles = 2* $ \dfrac{1}{2}*base*height $}[/tex]

                                  = base * height

                                  = 8 * 15

                                   = 120 in²

Total surface area = 720 + 120

Answers

As no graph is shown some basic information of parabola can be helpful

As it's. a hill hence the parabola facing downwardsa is negative

As a must be negative option D has such similarities.

Option D is correct (Assumption)

Answer:

[tex]\sf y = -0.006x^2 + 0.35x + 6\quad and\quad y = 0.2x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As the archer shoots the arrow up, the trajectory of the arrow can be modeled as a parabola that opens downwards.  Therefore, this is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient.

From inspection of the answer options, the path of the arrow is :

[tex]y=-0.006x^2+0.35x+6[/tex]

This means the options for the line equation are [tex]y=-x[/tex] and [tex]y=0.2x[/tex]

We are told that the point of intersection of the line and the parabola is at (46.5, 9.3).  As both the x-value and y-value are positive, the equation of the line must be [tex]y=0.2x[/tex]

To confirm, substitute [tex]x=46.5[/tex] into the equation:
