Answer:
Option C: 0.28
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial probability distribution problem.
Now, we want to find the probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed. This is written as;
P(X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)
From the histogram;
P(5) = 0.02
P(4) = 0.02
P(3) = 0.05
P(2) = 0.19
Thus;
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.19 + 0.05 + 0.02 + 0.02
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.28
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>Let's find 'a' using Pythagoras theorem.</u>
- => 4² = 2² + a²
- => 16 = 4 + a²
- => 12 = a²
- => a = √12
- => a = √2 x 2 x 3
- => a = 2√3
- => a = 2 x √3
- => a = 2 x 1.732
- => a = 3.464 = 3.5 (Estimated)

Answer:
(a) minor arc: arc VX
major arc: arc VYX
(b) 248 degrees
(c) Tangent: UV
Secant: UY
Step-by-step explanation:
(b) 360 - 112 = 248
(c) UV crosses on the circumference of the circle at exactly one point
UY crosses through the circle at exactly two points
After 4 years, the account gains $325.8, so 4 years
Answer:
<h3>
The width (side perpedicular to the barn):
<u>x = 8 m</u></h3><h3> The lenght (side parallel to the barn):
<u>y = 16 m</u> </h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
x - the width of the barn
She has 32 m of fencing so for the lenght remain (32-2x) m of fencing:
y = 32 - 2x
Area of the fencing: A = x•y
A(x) = x•(32 - 2x)
A(x) = -2x² + 32x ← quadratic function
The maximum value of quadratic function occurs at: 
a = -2, b = 32

32-2x = 32 - 2•8 = 16
