Answer:
The probability that she will not get a hit until her fourth time at bat in a game is 0.103
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"
Let X the random variable that measures the number os trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:
Solution to the problem
For this case we want this probability
And using the probability mass function we got:
The probability that she will not get a hit until her fourth time at bat in a game is 0.103
Using the dot product:
For any vector x, we have
||x|| = √(x • x)
This means that
||w|| = √(w • w)
… = √((u + z) • (u + z))
… = √((u • u) + (u • z) + (z • u) + (z • z))
… = √(||u||² + 2 (u • z) + ||z||²)
We have
u = ⟨2, 12⟩ ⇒ ||u|| = √(2² + 12²) = 2√37
z = ⟨-7, 5⟩ ⇒ ||z|| = √((-7)² + 5²) = √74
u • z = ⟨2, 12⟩ • ⟨-7, 5⟩ = -14 + 60 = 46
and so
||w|| = √((2√37)² + 2•46 + (√74)²)
… = √(4•37 + 2•46 + 74)
… = √314 ≈ 17.720
Alternatively, without mentioning the dot product,
w = u + z = ⟨2, 12⟩ + ⟨-7, 5⟩ = ⟨-5, 17⟩
and so
||w|| = √((-5)² + 17²) = √314 ≈ 17.720
In this question, you are given the width( 20 miles), the length(28 miles) and the height( 1 inch). You are asked to count the rain water volume which was going with formula length x width x height. But the unit asked is ft, so you need to convert them all. The calculation would be:
Water volume= length x width x height
Water volume= 20 miles x 5280ft/miles x 28 miles x 5280ft/miles x 1inch x 1ft/12inch
Water volume = 1300992000 cubic ft.
