Answer:

0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a large city (so that the sample size does not affect the population probability), then the probability of a house is NOT burglarized is (1-0.05)=0.95.

By the multiplication law, randomly selecting 20 houses not burglarized is

P(20)= 0.95^{20} = 0.35

You finish washing 3/4 of your windows in an hour and a half. At that rate, how much longer will it take you to finish washing a
Marysya12 [62]
It takes you 90 minutes to wash 3/4 of your windows

Multiply both numbers by 4.

It takes you 360 minutes to wash 3 of your windows.

Divide both numbers by 3.

It takes you 120 minutes to wash 1 of your windows.

120 minutes = 2 hours.

It will take you 2 hours to wash all the windows.

The focus of a parabola is located at (4,0), and the directrix is located at x = –4.
Tanzania [10]
The distance between the focus and directrix is, in this case, 8. Since the directrix is at x= something, the parabola opens sideways, and since the directrix is on the left, to the right. In which case, y^2=p(x), where p is 4 times distance of half of distance between directrix and focus, so the answer is y^2=16x

I drove to the beach at a rate of 40 miles per hour. If I had driven at a rate of 30 miles per hour instead, then I would have a
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set <em>x</em> to the number of miles driven, and <em>t</em> to the number of hours it took to drive.

We know that 40<em>t</em> is equal to <em>x</em>.

We also know that 40<em>t</em> is equal to 30(<em>t</em> + 1/3).

Solve for t:

40t = 30(t+1/3)

40t = 30t + 10

Subtract 30t from both sides:

10t = 10

Divide 10 from both sides:

t = 1

40t = 40 x 1 = 40 miles
