Suppose that 25% of all students who have to buy a physical copy of the 9th edition of our textbook want a new copy (the "successes"), whereas the other 75% want a used copy. each chooses independently of the others. consider randomly selecting 30 purchasers. a) what is the expected value of the number of students who want a new copy of the book? write out all formulas in your work.

7 or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be modeled with the Binomial Distribution which give the probability of an event that occurs exactly k times out of n, and is given by

where  

= combination of n elements taken k at a time.

p = probability that the event (“success”) occurs once

q = 1-p

In this case, the event “success” is wanting a new copy  of the book with probability 25% = 0.25 and n=30 students randomly chosen.

The expected value for a binomial distribution is the mean np, so in this case the expected value of the number of students who want a new copy of the book would be

np = 30*0.25 = 7.5

To make sense of this value, we could say that 7 or 8 students out of 30 want a new copy of the book.

i believe it is c.y = 9x

rise over run. 9 units up over 1 unit right or 9/1

-60.75

step-by-step explanation:

just add the numbers then put the negative sign on it
