Answer:

1200 shirts were sold.

400 pants were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of shirts to pants sold = 3:1 (difference of 2)

800 ÷ 2 = 400

Ratio x 400 = 1200:400 (difference of 800)

Answer:

L ≈ 1023.0562

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

x = t² - 2t

dx/dt = 2t - 2

Also, y = t^(5)

dy/dt = 5t⁴

The arc length formula is;

L = (α,β)∫√[(dx/dt)² + (dy/dt)²]dt

Where α and β are the boundary points. Thus, applying this to our question, we have;

L = (1,4)∫√[(2t - 2)² + (5t⁴)²]dt

L = (1,4)∫√[4t² - 8t + 4 + 25t^(8)]dt

L = (1,4)∫√[25t^(8) + 4t² - 8t + 4]dt

Using online integral calculator, we have;

L ≈ 1023.0562

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a positive 3 taken away from a negative 10 leaves you with less negative but still in the negative which means you get -7 so 3 is the blank

An example problem in a Statistics textbook asked to find the probability of dying when making a skydiving jump.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

(a) 0.999664

(b) 15052

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data of recent years, there were about 3,000,000 skydiving jumps and 21 of them resulted in deaths.

So, the probability of death is $\frac{21}{3000000}==0.000007$ .

Assuming, this probability holds true for each skydiving and does not change in the present time.

So, as every skydiving is an independent event having a fixed probability of dying and there are only two possibilities, the diver will either die or survive, so, all skydiving can be regarded as is Bernoulli's trial.

Denoting the probability of dying in a single jump by $q$ .

$q=7\times 10^{-6}=0.000007$ .

So, the probability of survive, $p=1-q$

$\Rightarrow p=1-7\times 10^{-6}=0.999993.$

(a) The total number of jump he made, n=48

Using Bernoulli's equation, the probability of surviving in exactly 48 jumps (r=48) out of 48 jumps (n=48) is

$=\binom(n,r)p^rq^{n-r}$

$=\binom(48,48)(0.999993)^{48}(0.000007)^{48-48}$

$=(0.999993)^{48}=0.999664$ (approx)

So, the probability of survive in 48 skydiving is 0.999664,

(b) The given probability of surviving =90%=0.9

Let, total $n$ skydiving jumps required to meet the surviving probability of 0.9.

So, By using Bernoulli's equation,

$0.9=\binom {n }{r} p^rq^{n-r}$

Here, r=n.

$\Rightarrow 0.9=\binom{n}{n}p^nq^{n-n}$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=p^n$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=(0.999993)^n$

$\Rightarrow \ln(0.9)=n\ln(0.999993)$ [ taking $\log_e$ both sides]

$\Rightarrow n=\frac {\ln(0.9)}{\ln(0.999993)}$

$\Rightarrow n=15051.45$

The number of diving cant be a fractional value, so bound it to the upper integral value.

Hence, the total number of skydiving required to meet the 90% probability of surviving is 15052.
