About 23% of people who get their eyes examined are found to have a detached retina (the retina is pulled away from the tissue at the back of the eye). What is the probability of an ophthalmologist examining seven people until he finds the first patient who has a detached retina?

Step-by-step explanation:

given that about 23% of people who get their eyes examined are found to have a detached retina (the retina is pulled away from the tissue at the back of the eye).

Each person coming for check up is independent of the other

Hence any person to have a detached retina has probability = 0.23 and each person is independent of the other

Prob for any person not to have detached retins = 0.77

The probability of an ophthalmologist examining seven people until he finds the first patient who has a detached retina

= Probability that first 6 persons did not have detached retina* prob 7th person has detached retina

= (since each person is independent of the other)

= 0.043937

answer: idk

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is

c. 4

step-by-step explanation:

the given polynomial is

the degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent which is 4.

the -4 is called the leading coefficient.

this polynomial has only one term so it is a monomial.

the correct answer is option c.
