Answer with explanation:

→Total number of people in the committee=6

→Number of votes in the system represented by q ,

      =6+ 4+4+ 3+ 2+ 1=20

a.→Value of q would represent a simple majority if , q>10 that is it would be greater than 50% of votes, means 11 votes.

b.→Value of q that would represent two-thirds majority

        =\frac{2}{3}\times 20\\\\=\frac{40}{3}\\\\=13.33

Approximately 14 votes.

which plane is closer to the base of the airplane tower? explain. The distance for Plane A, to the nearest tenth, is ____ kilome
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Plane B is closer.

The distance for Plane A is 7.9 km.

The distance for Plane B is 7.4 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance to the tower, altitude must be converted to kilometers. Each 1000 ft is 0.3048 km, so the heights of the planes are ...

-- Plane A: (20 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 6.096 km

-- Plane B: (8 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 2.4384 km

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the distance from each plane to the tower:

-- distance = √((ground distance)² + (height)²)

-- Plane A distance = √(5² +6.096²) ≈ √62.16 ≈ 7.9 . . . km

-- Plane B distance = √(7² +2.4384²) ≈ √54.95 ≈ 7.4 . . . km

The distance for Plane B is shorter, so Plane B is closer to the tower.

Tammy’s home cost her $184,000. She lives in an area with a lively real estate market, and her home increases in value by 3. 5
garri49 [273]

The profit to be made when she sells the house is $103,800.

The first step is to determine the value of Tammy's house in 13 years. The formula to be used is:

  • FV = P (1 + r)^n
  • FV = Future value  
  • P = Present value  
  • R = interest rate  
  • N = number of years  

$184,000 x (1.035)^13 = $287,767.92

Profit = value of the house in 13 years - cost of the house

$287,767.92 - $184,000 = 103,767 = $103,800

In which of these examples, binomial distribution can be used? a) Finding the best month to launch a new product b) Accurately p
irina1246 [14]

Answer: The answer is (d) Accurately predicting who will be promoted at work.


Step-by-step explanation:  We are given four options and asked in which of these four, we can use binomial distribution.

Binomial distribution is used in that experiments where there are only two outcomes, either success or failure.

In the given four options, (a), (c) and (d) are incorrect, because the number of outcomes are not fixed there and hence we cannot use binomial distribution.

Only option (b) will serve our purpose, as we are accurately predicting who is getting promoted at work.

Thus, the correct option is (b).
