Using the uniform distribution, considering that the novel has 435 pages, the probability that the page is numbered something between 21 and 31 is:

p = \frac{10}{435}

<h3>What is the uniform probability distribution?</h3>

It is a distribution with two bounds, a and b, in which each outcome is equally as likely.

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that the novel has 435 pages, hence a = 0, b = 435, and the probability that the page is numbered something between 21 and 31 is given by:

P(21 \leq X \leq 31) = \frac{31 - 21}{435 - 0} = \frac{10}{435}

The point (-3, 2) lies on a circle. What is the length of the radius of the circle if the center is located at (-1, 5)?
enot [183]

Answer:

R: √(13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance formula:

r^2 = (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2

Center: (h,k)=(-1,5)

Circle: all points of (x,y)=(-3,2)

r^2=(-3+1)^2 + (2-5)^2

r^2=(-2)^2 + (-3)^2

r^2= 4 + 9

r^2=13       ((r^2)^(1/2)) = 13^(1/2) = 3.6055
