Answer:
Probability that a 20- cubic foot block of wood has at most 1 knot P (X<=1) = 0.5918
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of knot= 1.4
Wavelength = 1.4
Geometric probability is given by:
P(X= K) = wavelength ^k × e^-wavelegth
P(X=0) = (1.4^0 × e^-1.4)/0!
P(X=0) = 1 × 0.2466 = 0.2466
P(X=1) = 1.4^1 × e^-1.4
P(X=1)= 1.4×0.2466= 0.3452
P(X<=1)= P(X=0) + P(X=1)
P(X<=1) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 = 0.5918
Answer:
x ≈ - 1.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rule of logarithms
x = n ⇔ x = 
Given
ln(x + 4) = 1 , then
x + 4 =
( subtract 4 from both sides )
x =
- 4 = - 1.28 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
5x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
= -8x - 12 - 3x + 5
= -8x - 3x - 12 + 5
= 5x-7
1.8 - 0.2x = -1.6 Subtract 1.8 on both sides
1.8 - 1.8 - 0.2x = -1.6 - 1.8
-0.2x = -3.4 Divide -0.2 on both sides

x = 17
Answer:
<em>39 is 26.71% of 146</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage solution with steps:
Step 1: We make the assumption that 146 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100% = 146.
Step 4: In the same vein, x% = 39.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
100% = 146(1).
x%=39(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS (left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
100/x% = 146/39
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
x% / 100% = 39/146 ⇒ x= 26.71%
Therefore, 39 is 26.71% of 146.
