We assume that we have a fair coin that is p(Head)=p(Tails)=0.5

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of heads observed in 20 times". The distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim Binom(n=20, p=0.5)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A Bernoulli trial is "a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted". And this experiment is a particular case of the binomial experiment.

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

We assume that we have a fair coin that is p(Head)=p(Tails)=0.5

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of heads observed in 20 times". The distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim Binom(n=20, p=0.5)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Answer from: Quest

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)

Use the spider tool located on page 1 of this activity to draw a 12-pointed star for the new logo. (hint: if the spider rotates 360 degrees -- or 720 degrees or 1080 degrees -- she will be facing in the same direction in which she started. when the spider is done drawing, you want her to be facing in the same direction in which she started. she'll be making 12 rotations, all the same size, so each rotation must be some multiple of 360/12 = 30 degrees.) urgently. been stuck on this problem for around 45 minutes now.! it should be easy if you're smart enough
