Give the numerical value of the parameter p in the following binomial distribution scenario. A softball pitcher has a 0.721 probability of throwing a strike for each pitch and a 0.279 probability of throwing a ball. If the softball pitcher throws 19 pitches, we want to know the probability that more than 15 of them are strikes. Consider strikes as successes in the binomial distribution. Do not include p in your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

;x = 0, 1, 2, n

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
