Question 1 has 4 letters that can be chosen, so it can be answered in 4 possible ways.
Question 2 has a different letter chosen from Question 1, so 3 letters can be chosen for Question 2, so it can be answered in 3 possible ways.
Question 3 has a different letter chosen from Question 2, so 3 letters can be chosen for Question 3, so it can be answered in 3 possible ways.
Question 4 has a different letter chosen from Question 3, so 3 letters can be chosen for Question 4, so it can be answered in 3 possible ways.
Question 5 has a different letter chosen from Question 4, so 3 letters can be chosen for Question 5, so it can be answered in 3 possible ways.
Total number of ways in which 5 questions can be answered without choosing same letters for two consecutive questions = 43333 = 324

A student is taking a standardized test consisting of several multiple-choice questions. One point is awarded for each correct answer. Questions left blank neither receive nor lose points. There are five options for each question and the student is penalized one tenth 1/10 point for each wrong answer. Is it in the student's best interest to guess? Explain.
Steve is a student in a statistics course. He is not a good student. A multiple-choice test is coming up and he will just rely on luck to pass the test. There are 10 multiple-choice questions on the test, with 5 possible answers given for each question, one of them being the correct one. Steve is going to guess the answer to each question. What is the probability that Steve gets no answers correct? What is the probability that Steve...
A student is taking a multiple-choice exam in which each question has five choices. Assuming that she has no knowledge of the correct answers to any of the questions, she has decided on a strategy in which she will place five balls (marked Upper A comma Upper B comma Upper C comma Upper D comma and Upper E) into a box. She randomly selects one ball for each question and replaces the ball in the box. The marking on the...
A student takes a test consisting of 10 multiple choice questions. Each question has four answers, but only one correct answer. (a) What is the probability that the student answers exactly seven questions correctly? (b) What is the probability that the student answers at most two questions correctly?
3) Suppose a student is taking a multiple-choice question exam in which each answer has four choices. Assuming that she has no knowledge of the correct answers to any of the questions, she has decided on the following strategy: She will place four balls marked A, B, C, and D in a box. She randomly selects one ball for each question and replaces the ball in the box after marking the letter of the ball as the answer. If there...

She has decided on a strategy in which she will place four balls (marked A,B,C, and D) into a box. She randomly selects one ball for each question and replaces the ball in the box. The marking on the ball will determine her answer to the question. There are five...

just answer nuber 18 please Discrete Binomial Distributions: Assume that you are taking a multiple choice test that you have not studied for! The test only has 9 questions and each question has four possible answers. You plan to randomly guess on all 9 questions and the probability you get one correct is the same for all questions. 17. What is the probability you get the first question correct? A. 0.25 B. 0.50 C. 0.75 D. 1.00 18. Using the...
A student takes a multiple choice test consisting of 5 questions where there are 4 choices per question. Also, each question is worth 20 points. Suppose the student guesses on each question. Let X be the number of questions the student gets correct. The probability distribution for X is given below. Find the probability that the student gets at least a 60 on the test. Give your answer to four decimal places.
