pentagon [3]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

0.496

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a particular transistor be deflective is 0.03. This situation may be seen as a experiment-result situation. You may choose one of the transistors and find out if it is deflective.

Be r the probability that a transistor selected be deflective. Be R the probability that the transistor selected don't be deflective; it is easy to note that R=1-0.03, due to the total of possibilities for the single experiment are two: deflective or not deflective.

If a single result has a probability of p, the probability P that the same result be obtained n times is:

P=p^{n}

So, the probability that none of the transistors be deflective is:

P=0.97^{23}=0.496

Do toy have a triangle with a 3 angles:60 degrees, 60 degrees, 63 degrees
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

no.

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle can only have 180° in total but

60+60+63

=183°

Therefore a triangle can not have these three angles together.

Ming throws a stone off a bridge into a river below.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

1 seconds after being thrown, the stone reaches its max height

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabolic (quadratic) equation is:

h(x)=-5(x-1)^2+45

Lets expand this in the form ax^2+bx+c, so we have:

h(x)=-5(x-1)^2+45\\h(x)=-5(x^2-2x+1)+45\\h(x)=-5x^2+10x-5+45\\h(x)=-5x^2+10x+40

We can say the values of a,b, and c, now to be:

a = -5

b = 10

c = 40

The number of seconds at which the max would occur is given by the point, x, at:

x=-\frac{b}{2a}

We know a and b, let's find the seconds, x,

x=-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{10}{2(-5)}=-\frac{10}{-10}=--1=1

Hence,

1 seconds after being thrown, the stone reach its max height

John bought a used truck for $4,500. He made an agreement with the dealer to put $1,500 down and make payments of $350 for the n
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(D) 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual cost of truck = $4500

Down payment = $1500

Money left to be paid = 4500-1500 =  $3000

A = Monthly payments = 350

n = 10

Principal value (P) = 3000

Using formula,

A= \frac{Pr(1+r)^{n}}{(1+r)^{n}-1}

350 =\frac{3000r(1+r)^{10}}{(1+r)^{10}-1}

       = 36% (approx)

Hence (D) is correct.

Q is equidistant from the sides of ZTSR. Find mZRST. The
melisa1 [442]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles QRS and QTS are congruent (HL), so the marked angles are also congruent:

  3x +2 = 4x -4

  6 = x

Then the total angle measure of angle RST is ...

  (3x +2) +(4x -4) = 7x -2 = 7(6) -2 = 40 . . . degrees

m∠RST = 40°
