There are 8 books needing re-shelving in a library where 65% of the library's collection consists of reference books. Let X be the number of reference books a student helper re-shelves out of the 8 on her cart. a) What is the probability that all 8 of them are reference books

0.0319

Step-by-step explanation:

To approximate this probability, we shall be using the Bernoulli approximation of the Binomial distribution.

Let p = probability of selecting a reference book = 65% = 0.65

Let q = probability of selecting other books= 1-p = 1-0.65 = 0.35

Now, we want to find the probability that all of these 8 books to be re-shelved are reference book.

We set up the probability as follows;

P(X = 8) = 8C8 •p^8•q^0

P(X = 8) = 1 * (0.65)^8 * (0.35)^0

P(X = 8) = 0.031864481289 which is 0.0319 to 4 decimal places

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
