20 POINTS PLZ HURRY!!! (04.02 MC)
As a special promotion for its 16-ounce bottles of fruit juice, a juice drink company printed a message on the inside of each cap. Some of the caps read, "Better luck next time!" whereas others read, "You won!" The company advertised the promotion with the slogan "One in seven wins a prize!" Suppose the company is telling the truth and that every 16-ounce bottle of juice has a one-in-seven chance of being a winner. Eight friends each buy one 16-ounce bottle of juice at a local convenience store. Let X equal the number of friends who win a prize.

Part A: Explain why X is a binomial random variable. (3 points)

Part B: Find the mean and standard deviation of X. Interpret each value in context. (4 points)

Part C: The store clerk is surprised when two of the friends win a prize. Is this group of friends just lucky, or is the company's one-in-seven claim inaccurate? Compute P(X ≥ 2) and use the result to justify your answer. (3 points) (10 points)

Cone w has a radius of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. square pyramid x has the same base area and height as cone w. paul and manuel disagree on how the volumes of cone w and square pyramid x are related. examine their arguments. which statement explains whose argument is correct and why? paul manuel the volume of square pyramid x is equal to the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is three times the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is (area of base)(h) = (200.96)(5) = 1,004.8 cm3. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x.
