Answer:

1/2 or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Pick two points on the graph, I'm picking (0,5) and (2,6)

To solve for the slope, we want the ratio to the rise of the graph, over the run of the graph (Rise/Run).

As the graph Rises 1 unit, it also Runs 2 units.

Hence the fraction 1/2.

We can also use the slope formula, given two points : ( $(x_1, y_1) , (x_2, y_2)$

Formula: $\frac{y_2 - y_2}{x_2 - x_1}$

Plug in our points (0,5) and (2,6):

$\frac{y_2 - y_2}{x_2 - x_1}$
$\frac{6 - 5}{2 - 0}$
$\frac12$

The slope is 1/2, or 0.5

We need to solve for the area of the sector.

A = n/360 * π * r²
A = 85/360 * 3.14 * 5²
A = 0.2361 * 3.14 * 25
A = 18.5347

Answer is C. 18.5 square meters.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 gallons of regular gas with 10% and 2 gallons with 85%

8 x 10 =80%

2 x 85 =170%

170+80=250%

10 gallons each with 100%, so 10 x 100 =1000%

250% of 1000% = 1/4 or 25% ethanol

Hope this helps!

Need help pls with 39

Daniel [21]

For a triangle to be a triangle all the angles have to add up to 180 degrees. So 52 degrees plus 28 degrees would equal 80. So now to find the answer 180 - 80 then your final answer is 100! Hope This Helps

madam [21]

Answer:

a) 10.75% probability that exactly 30 of them will pass the quality control checks.

b) Expected value is 32

Variance is 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

For each monitor, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will pass the quality checks, or they will not pass these checks. The probability of a monitor passing these checks is independent of other monitors. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The variance of the binomial distribution is:

$V(X) = np(1-p)$

80% of the monitors made by your company will pass your stringent quality control checks.

This means that $p = 0.8$

40 monitors have just come off the assembly line.

This means that $n = 40$

a) What is the probability that exactly 30 of them will pass the quality control checks?

This is P(X = 30). So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 30) = C_{40,30}.(0.8)^{30}.(0.2)^{10} = 0.1075$

10.75% probability that exactly 30 of them will pass the quality control checks.

b) What are the expected value and variance of the number of these monitors that will pass the quality control checks?

$E(X) = np = 40*0.8 = 32$

Expected value is 32

$V(X) = np(1-p) = 40*0.8*0.2 = 6.4$

Variance is 6.4

A door frame is 7 feet high. In order to accommodate a larger door, the frame

Artemon [7]

First you need to get 3% of 7 so
7x0.03= 0.21
then you need to add that 3% onto 7
7+0.21=7.21
therefore the door frame is now 7.21 feet high
