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:
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
Solution to the problem
For this case our random variable is given by:
For this case we want this probability:
And replacing we got:
In this binomial distribution scenario, the parameter 'p', representing the probability of success on each trial, is the probability of the pitcher throwing a strike, which is 0.721.
In the binomial distribution scenario you described, the softball pitcher throwing a pitch is the independent trial with two possible outcomes: throwing a strike (success) or a ball (failure). The parameter p represents the probability of success on each independent trial. From the question, we can see that the probability, or p, of the pitcher throwing a strike (success) is 0.721. Therefore, p = 0.721.
Please note that the binomial distribution model can be used when all trials are independent, the outcome of a trial is success or failure, and the probability of success remains the same for each trial. It doesn't appear that we need the number 'n' of independent trials or the random variable 'X' representing the number of successes (strikes in this case) for your question, as we were only asked for the value of 'p'.

Answer:
divide 8 by 4.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that the average percent of fat calories is more than 40 for a group of 16 individuals is 0.1151 and the first quartile for the average percent of fat calories is 34.82.
The problem presented is one of statistics, specifically dealing with the normal distribution. When dealing with the normal distribution, there are a few key facts to know. The mean (μ) is the average value of the data, the standard deviation (σ) measures the spread of the data, and the Z-score measures how many standard deviations an element is from the mean. It appears that you're asked to find the probability that the average percent of fat calories is more than 40 for a group of 16 individuals and the value corresponding to the first quartile.

The probability that the group consumes more than 40% of fat calories is 0.8849 (or 88.49%). The first quartile for the average percent of fat calories is 34.26%.
This problem requires the use of normal distributions and the calculation of z-scores, which is a quantitative measure that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Knowing the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ), you can calculate the z-score.
In part a) the problem asks for the probability that a sample of 16 individuals has an average fat calories consumption over 40%. First, we calculate the z-score.
z = (X - μ) / (σ/ √ n ), where n is the sample size. So, z = (40 - 37) / (10 / √ 16) = 1.2. Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the probability corresponding to this z-value is ~0.1151. However, since the question is asking for more than 40%, we subtract this from 1 (1 - 0.1151 = 0.8849). So, the chance that the average of this sample would have more than 40% fat calories is 0.8849, or 88.49%.
For part b), the first quartile (also known as the 25th percentile) is the point at which 25% of the data fall below it. With a standard normal distribution, this z-value is approximately -0.674. We plug this into our z-score formula to find: X = μ + Zσ = 37 -0.674(10) =34.26%. Therefore, the point where 25% of individual average fat calories fall below it is 34.26%.

Answer:
16 baskets, each containing 3 red peppers and 1 yellow pepper
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor (GCF) of the two numbers can be found a variety of ways. It is simplest just to recognize that 16 is a divisor of 48, so is the GCF of the two numbers Since that number divides both evenly, the respective quotients will be the number of peppers in each of the 16 baskets.
(48 red peppers)/(16 baskets) = 3 red peppers/basket
(16 yellow peppers)/(16 baskets) = 1 yellow pepper/basket
