Find the probability of each event.

A fair coin is flipped ten times. What is
the probability of the coin landing tails up
at least nine times?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0108 = 1.08% probability of the coin landing tails up at least nine times.

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:

The coin is fair, hence p = 0.5.The coin is tossed 10 times, hence n = 10.

The probability that is lands tails up at least nine times is given by:

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]

In which:

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

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.5)^{9}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.0098[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.5)^{10}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.001[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0098 + 0.001 = 0.0108[/tex]

0.0108 = 1.08% probability of the coin landing tails up at least nine times.

findin the measure of each angle (3x-13)° 5x -47

Answers

The measure of each angle is 43.25 and 46.75

How to determine the measure of each angle?

The attached image represents the missing piece in the question.

From the image, we can see that:

3x - 13 + 5x - 47 = 90 ---- complementary angles

Evaluate the like terms

8x = 150

Divide by 8

x = 18.75

Substitute x = 18.75 in the given angles

3x-13 = 3 * 18,75 - 13 = 43.25

5x -47 = 5 * 18.75 - 47 = 46.75

Hence, the measure of each angle is 43.25 and 46.75

There are 21 students in a classroom. the ratio of boys to girls is 2 boys to 5 girls. how many boys are in the classroom?

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls is 2:5

let the number of boys be 2x -------(i)

and number of girls be 5x

and the total number of students is 21

therefore we know that..

2x+5x = 21

on solving for x,

7x=21

x= 21/7

x=3

now, by putting the value of x in (i),

2x = 2×3 = 6

therefore, there are 6 boys in the classroom.

you find the no. of girls similarly.

2. Write each number as a product of primes, matching primes vertically when possible.

3. Bring down the same numbers in each column and the remaining numbers in each column.

4. Multiply the factors to get the LCM.

for example the lcm of 24 and 36

= 24 = (2 × 2 × 2 × 3) = 2^3 × 3^1

Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf \dfrac{14}{95}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Black ribbons = 8 ribbons

Green ribbons = 12 ribbons

Total ribbons: 12 + 8 = 20 ribbons

[tex]\sf Probability = \dfrac{Favorable \ Outcomes}{Total \ Possible \ Outcomes}[/tex]

For Lila:

[tex]\sf Lila \ picks \ black \ : \ \dfrac{8}{20}[/tex]

Left total ribbons: 20 -1 = 19 total ribbons

For Jessica:

Probability that they both pick black ribbons:

6 Mateo and Katia each walked into a
video arcade with $9.50 in quarters. After
they played video games for an hour, Katia
had $1.75 more than Mateo. Which could
be the amounts of money they had then?

Answers

Answer:

(amounts could be:)

Katia: $3.50

Mateo: $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a quarter = $0.25, 4 quarters = $1.00

We know that they both have 38 quarters ($9.50)

after an hour of playing games in the arcade, Katia has $1.75 more than Mateo

lets say that Katia has (random amount)$3.50(14 quarters) and Mateo has $1.75 less than that.

$3.50 - $1.75 = $1.75

Katia has $3.50 and Mateo has $1.75.

sally was given a standard deck of 52 cards she randomly chose 3 cards from the deck replacing the card befor each time. what is the probability of choosing an ace, a queen, and a six?

Answers

Since Sally replaces the card after each draw, there are 52 choices for each card that can be drawn.

In a standard deck of cards, there are 4 aces. Then the probability of drawing an ace is 4/52 = 1/13. The same reasoning applies to drawing a queen or a six. Then the probability of drawing an ace, queen, and six (in that particular order) is 1/13³.

But Sally can also draw these 3 specific cards in any order to end up with the same hand. There are 3! = 6 ways of doing so:

AQ6, A6Q, QA6, Q6A, 6AQ, 6QA

That is, 3 choices for the first card; 2 choices for the second; and 1 for the third, so a total of 3 • 2 • 1 = 3! = 6 hands.

Then the probability of getting a hand consisting of an ace, queen, and six is

3! • 1/13³ = 6/2197 ≈ 0.002731

How to determine the distribution?

The given parameters are:

Probability of success, p = 60%

Sample size, n = 5

The distribution of y is represented as:

[tex]P(y) = ^nC_y * p^y * (1 - p)^{n-y}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(y) = ^5C_y * (60\%)^y * (1 - 60\%)^{5-y}[/tex]

The relative frequency measures how often a value appears relative to the sum of the total values. The class width is 10. The class width is the difference between the upper and lower boundary (e.g. 100 - 90).

Frequency is the number of times the numbers in the class interval appear in the data set. Relative frequency is the frequency of a class interval divided by the total frequency of the data set.
