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

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

A sports drink bottle contains 16.9 fluid Ounces. Andre drank 80% of the
bottle. How many fluid Ounces did Andre drink?

Answers

Answer:

13.52 fluid ounces should be the right answer! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre drank from the bottle 13.52 fluid ounces if he drank 80% of bottle.

What is Percentage?

Percentage is defined as the parts of a number in a whole of 100. This is denoted by the symbol '%'.

In other words, percentage can be defined as the ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

Any number can be expressed as a percentage of another number by dividing the number with the whole of other number and then multiplying with 100.

Given that, fluid contained in a sports bottle = 16.9 fluid ounces.

Andre drank 80% of the fluid contained in the bottle.

80% of the bottle = 80% × 16.9

                             = (80 / 100) × 16.9

                             = 0.8 × 16.9

                             = 13.52

So this is the total fluid ounces Andre drink.

Hence Andre drank 13.52 fluid ounces from the bottle.

Calculate the area of the parallelogram, giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

114 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so

AB = CD , that is

13x - 7 = 5x + 9 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

8x - 7 = 9 ( add 7 to both sides )

8x = 16 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 2

Then

5x + 9 = 5(2) + 9 = 10 + 9 = 19

3x = 3(2) = 6

The area (A) of a parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height ), thus

A = 19 × 6 = 114 units²

(8x + 9) + (–6x – 1)

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

(8x + 9) + -1(6x + -1) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(9 + 8x) + -1(6x + -1) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (9 + 8x)

9 + 8x + -1(6x + -1) = 0

Reorder the terms:

9 + 8x + -1(-1 + 6x) = 0

9 + 8x + (-1 * -1 + 6x * -1) = 0

9 + 8x + (1 + -6x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

9 + 1 + 8x + -6x = 0

Combine like terms: 9 + 1 = 10

10 + 8x + -6x = 0

Combine like terms: 8x + -6x = 2x

10 + 2x = 0

Solving

10 + 2x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.

10 + -10 + 2x = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0

0 + 2x = 0 + -10

2x = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10

2x = -10

Divide each side by '2'.

x = -5

Simplifying

x = -5

3. The point P(3,5) is rotated 90° clockwise
about the origin. What are the coordinates of
P'?
A. P'(-3,-5)
B. P’(5,-3)
C. P'(-5,3)
D. P'(5, 3)

Please :)

Answers

Answer:

New coordinates of  P' are:  P'(5, -3)

Hence, option B i.e. P'(5,-3) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point A(x, y) is rotated 90° clockwise around the origin, we flip x and y and reverse the sign of x.  

Thus,  

The rule to rotate a point A(x, y) after a rotation 90° counterclockwise around the origin is:  

A(x, y) → A'(y, -x)

In our case, the point P(3, 5) is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin. Thus, the coordinates of  P' will be:

A(x, y) → A'(y, -x)

P(3, 5) → P'(5, -3)

Therefore, coordinates of P' are:  P'(5, -3)

Hence, option B i.e. P'(5,-3) is correct.

A plant is already 54 centimeters tall, and it will grow one centimeter every month. The plant's height, H (in centimeters), after M months is given by the following.
What is the plant's height after 13 months?

Answers

Answer:

67 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the initial height of the plant let's call it H.

H = 54 cm. This is the original height of the plant at M(months) = 0.

We are given that it grows at 1 cm/month. This is the rate of growth.

Rate = 1

Time (M) is given in Months.

So when M = 0, H = 54

Let's say M = 1, That is one month has passed. In this time the plant's height would have increased by 1 cm. So our plant's height would be H = 54+1 = 55 cm.

When Two months have passed our plant's height would be H = 54 + 2 = 56 cm , since every month our plant gains 1 cm in Height, we can make a fuction for this.

H = 1M + 54.

Now we just plug in 13 for M, to get 13 months.

H = 13 + 54

H = 67 cm

So our plant would be 67 cm in height after 13 months.
