A history professor decides to give a 12-question true-false quiz. She wants to choose the passing grade such that the probability of passing a student who guesses on every question is less than 0.10. What score should be set as the lowest passing grade? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

we can set the 9 as a benchmark to be the score for the passing grade so that probability of passing a student who guesses every question is less than 0.10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Sample  size n = 12

the probability of passing a student who guesses on every question is less than 0.10

In a alternative - response question (true/false) question, the probability of answering  a question correctly  = 1/2 = 0.5

Let X be the random variable that is represent number of correct answers out of 12.

The X [tex]\sim[/tex] BInomial (12, 0.5)

The probability mass function :

[tex]P(X = k) = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} \times p^k\times (1-p)^{n-k}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 12) = \dfrac{12!}{12!(12-12)!} \times 0.5^{12}\times (1-0.5)^{12-12}[/tex]

P(X = 12) = 2.44 × 10⁻⁴

[tex]P(X = 11) = \dfrac{12!}{11!(12-11)!} \times 0.5^{11}\times (1-0.5)^{12-11}[/tex]

P(X =11 ) = 0.00293

[tex]P(X = 10) = \dfrac{12!}{10!(12-10)!} \times 0.5^{10}\times (1-0.5)^{12-10}[/tex]

P(X = 10) = 0.01611

[tex]P(X = 9) = \dfrac{12!}{9!(12-9)!} \times 0.5^{19}\times (1-0.5)^{12-9}[/tex]

P(X = 9) = 0.0537

[tex]P(X = 8) = \dfrac{12!}{8!(12-8)!} \times 0.5^{8}\times (1-0.5)^{12-8}[/tex]

P(X = 8)  = 0.12085

[tex]P(X = 7) = \dfrac{12!}{7!(12-7)!} \times 0.5^{7}\times (1-0.5)^{12-7}[/tex]

P(X = 7) = 0.19335

.........

We can see that,a t P(X = 9) , the probability is 0.0537 which less than 0.10 but starting from P(X = 8) downwards the probability is more than 0.01

As such, we can set the 9 as a benchmark to be the score for the passing grade so that probability of passing a student who guesses every question is less than 0.10

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Decide whether the triangles are similar. If so, determine the appropriate expression to solve for x.

Answers

Answer:

third option

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ E = 180° - (65 + 53)° = 180° - 118° = 62°, then

∠ A = ∠ F = 53° and ∠ C = ∠ E = 62° , thus

Δ ABC ~ Δ FDE by the AA postulate

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{BC}{DE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AB}{FD}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{x}{z}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{w}{r}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by z )

x = z × [tex]\frac{w}{r}[/tex]

The expression to solve for x would be x = r × w/z Therefore, the correct option is 3.

What is the congruent triangle?

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

Since,

∠ E = 180° - (65 + 53)°

= 180° - 118° = 62°,

then

∠ A = ∠ F = 53° and ∠ C = ∠ E = 62° ,

Thus, Δ ABC ~ Δ FDE are congruent by the AA postulate.

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal so,

BC / DF = AB / ED

Substitute;

x / r = w/ z ( multiply both sides by z )

x = r × w/z

Therefore, the correct option is 3.

C. There are 5 1/2 three and one-eights in 3/4

Answers

Answer:

(D) There are [tex]5 \frac{1}{2}[/tex]  three-fourths in [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that in this model, the student tried to put [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] into  [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex]. We know this because the top of Step 2 is  [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex] and he is counting how many fourths in the bottom.

So this becomes the division statement:

[tex]4 \frac{1}{8} \div \frac{3}{4}[/tex].

We can convert  [tex]4 \frac{1}{8}[/tex] into a mixed number by multiplying 8 and 4, then adding 1.

[tex]\frac{33}{8} \div \frac{3}{4}[/tex].

Multiply by the reciprocal:

[tex]\frac{33}{8} \cdot \frac{4}{3} = \frac{132}{24}[/tex]

Which simplifies down to

[tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex], which is just [tex]5 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] in improper form.

Answers

Answer:

101

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of soldiers = 10201

They are queued such that the number of queues = number of soldiers in each queue

Let number of queues = q

Therefore, if number of queues equals number of soldiers per Q,

Then ;

q × q = 10201

q^2 = 10201

Take the square root of both sides

q = √10201

q = 101

Number of soldiers per queues = 101
