An airline claims that there is a 0.10 probability that a coach-class ticket holder who flies frequently will be upgraded to first class on any flight. This outcome is independent from flight to flight. Sam is a frequent flier who always purchases coach-class tickets.
For the following questions, pick the correct value rounded to the nearest hundredth.

What is the probability that Sam will be upgraded exactly 3 times in his next 20 flights?

What is the probability that Sam will be upgraded at most 4 times in his next 20 flights?

What is the probability that Sam’s first upgrade will occur on the third flight?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

a) The probability that Sam will be upgraded exactly 3 times in his next 20 flights is 19.01 %

b) The probability that Sam will be upgraded at most 4 times in his next 20 flights is 95.68 %

c) The probability that Sam’s first upgrade will occur on the third flight is 0.0729

What is a Binomial Distribution?

The binomial distribution is a type of probability distribution that predicts the likelihood of obtaining one of two outcomes given a set of inputs. It summarizes the number of tries where each trial has the equal chance of producing the same result.

The formula for Binomial Distribution is given by

P ( x ) = [ n! / ( n - x )! x! ] pˣqⁿ⁻ˣ

where

n = number of trials

x = number of successes

p = probability of getting a success in one trial

q = probability of getting a failure in one trial

q = 1 - p

Given data ,

Let the probability of getting a coach-class ticket be p

The value of p = 0.10

a)

The probability that Sam will be upgraded exactly 3 times in his next 20 flights

The number of trials = 20

The probability of success p = 0.10

The probability of failure q = 1 - p

The probability of failure q = 0.90

x = 3

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

P ( 3 ) = [ 20! / ( 17 )! 3! ] ( 0.10 )³ ( 0.90 )¹⁷

P ( 3 ) = 0.1901

P ( 3 ) = 19.01 %

b)

The probability that Sam will be upgraded at most 4 times in his next 20 flights

The number of trials = 20

The probability of success p = 0.10

The probability of failure q = 1 - p

The probability of failure q = 0.90

x ≤ 4

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

P ( x ≤ 4 ) = [ 20! / ( 16 )! 4! ] ( 0.10 )⁴ ( 0.90 )¹⁶

P ( x ≤ 4 ) = 0.9568

P ( x ≤ 4 ) = 95.68 %

c)

The probability that Sam’s first upgrade will occur on the third flight

A = ( 0.9 ) ( 0.9 ) ( 0.9 ) ( 0.1 )

A = 0.0729

A = 7.29 %

Hence , the solution is calculated by binomial distribution

Pls help me with my homework

Answers

Answer:

b = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagorean Theorem, a[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex], we just plug in what we know.

We know that the hypotenuse, c, is 10 km. We also know that one of the other side lengths is 6 km, we can plug that into either a or b.

Now, our equation will be: [tex]6^{2} +b^{2} =10^{2}[/tex].

You could also use the equation: [tex]b^{2} =10^{2} -6^{2}[/tex].

Next, we'll just solve the equation.

[tex]10^{2} =100[/tex], [tex]6^{2} = 36[/tex]

[tex]b^{2} =100 - 36[/tex]

[tex]b^{2} = 64[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{b^{2} } = \sqrt{64}[/tex]

b = 8

3(3v-5) = 39
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answers

Answer:

v = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3(3v-5) = 39

So,

3v - 5 = 39 / 3

=> 3v - 5 = 13

=> 3v = 13 + 5

=> 3v = 18

=> v = 18 / 3

=> v = 6

#HopeItHelps

Answer:

V=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped! :)

Simplifying

3(3v + -5) = 39

Reorder the terms:

3(-5 + 3v) = 39

(-5 * 3 + 3v * 3) = 39

(-15 + 9v) = 39

Solving

-15 + 9v = 39

Solving for variable 'v'.

Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '15' to each side of the equation.

-15 + 15 + 9v = 39 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0

0 + 9v = 39 + 15

9v = 39 + 15

Combine like terms: 39 + 15 = 54

9v = 54

Divide each side by '9'.

v = 6

Simplifying

v = 6

Now you have an expression for each angle in the triangle. Triangles will always have 180 degrees in them. You can add the expressions together and set it equal to 180. Then you can solve the equation for the x variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle SWT + angle WTS + angle TSW = 180 degrees

Replace each angle with the expression then solve.

Answer:

Note that both terms, 3x and -30, have a 3 in common. This is called the greatest common factor, or g.c.f.

What is ¨0.83% of n is 18.26¨ (just tell me the value of n)

Answers

Answer:

N = 2,200

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

0.83% = 0.83 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

0.83% = 0.83/100 = 0.83 ÷ 100

Calculate percentage:

'Percentage' is obtained by multiplying 2,200 by 0.83%

0.83% × 2,200 =

(0.83 ÷ 100) × 2,200 =

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the law of cosines to find an angle when we have all three sides

(7)^2 = (5)^2 + (3)^2 -(2)(5)(3)Cos(C)

49 = 25 +9 -30Cos(c)

I believe it is 3 x d=83 (d meaning days) so you have to figure out how many days the customers used toilet paper. So to find that out you would have to do 83 divided by 3 which equals 27.6 so maybe round up to the nearest tenth so I’d say that d=28. I hope I was able to help you!

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they were born on consecutive years, their ages are 4 consecutive whole numbers. Let the lowest age be x. Then the other ages are x + 1, x + 2, and x + 3.

Now we add the 4 expressions and set the sum equal to 94.

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 94

4x + 6 = 94

4x = 88

x = 22
