Answer:

Given that the probability of winning is = 0.05

So the probability of losing is = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95.

We are told we have a 1 in 20 chance

Success: 0.05

Failure: 0.95

P(X=4)= 0.95*0.95*0.95*0.05

So the chance is 0.04286 or Option D

Assume that a set of test scores is normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 10. In what percentile is
vlabodo [156]
Given:
μ = 70, the mean
σ = 10, the standard deviation

The random variable is x = 65.
Calculate the z-score.
z = (x - μ)/σ = (65 -70)/10 = - 0.5

From standard ables, obtain
P(x<5) = 0.3085 ≈ 30%
The score of 65 is in the 30th percentile.

Answer: 30th

What is an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y = 7x + 14 that contains (3, –7)?
umka21 [38]

The equation of the perpendicular line is y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

<h3>How to determine the line equation?</h3>

The equation is given as

y = 7x + 14

Also, from the question

The point is given as

Point = (3, -7)

The equation of a line can be represented as

y = mx + c

Where

Slope = m

By comparing the equations, we have the following

m = 7

This means that the slope of y = 7x + 14  is 7

So, we have

m = 7

The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals

This means that the slope of the other line is -1/7

The equation of the perpendicular lines is then calculated as

y = m(x - x₁) +y₁

Where

m = -1/7

(x₁, y₁) = (3, -7)

So, we have

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Evaluate

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Add 7 to both sides

y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

Hence, the perpendicular line has an equation of y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

What are the solution(s) of x squared minus 4 = 0? x = negative 4 or x = 4 x = negative 2 or x = 2 x = 2 x = 4
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is

x^2 - 4

This is a quadratic expression.

To find the solution, we will equate the the expression to zero. It becomes

x^2 - 4 = 0

Add 4 to the left hand side of the equation and the right hand side of the equation. It becomes.

x^2 - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4

x^2 = 4

Take square root of the right hand side of the equation and left hand side of the equation. It becomes

√x^2 = √4

x = ± 2

x = 2 or x = - 2
