% change = (new value - old value)/(old value) * 100%
.. = (9.67 -9.74)/9.74 * 100%
.. = -0.07/9.74 * 100%
.. = -0.7%

The decrease is 0.7%.

The points A BC :(2, 2,1), :(1,1,3), :(2,0,5) − are the vertices of a right triangle. The radius of the sphere with center at th

Answer:

r=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to know the length of each side of the triangle, so we use the formula of the vector modulus:

$|AB|= \sqrt{(b_{1}-a_{1})^{2}+(b_{2}-a_{2})^{2}+(b_{3}-a_{3})^{2}$

By doing so, we find:

$|AB|=\sqrt {6}\\|BC|=\sqrt {6}\\|AC|=2\sqrt {5}$

With this we know that the triangle is not right, but, we assume the longest side as the hypotenuse of the problem.

As we have two equal sides, we know that the line between point |AB| and the center of the hypotenuse is perpendicular, therefore, we can calculate it using Pythagoras theorem:

$|BC|^{2}=r^{2}+(\frac{|AC|}{2})^{2}\\\\r^{2}=|BC|^{2}-(\frac{|AC|}{2})^{2}\\\\r^{2}=(\sqrt{6})^{2}- (\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{2})^{2}\\\\r^{2}=6-5=1\\r=1$

A multiple-choice test has 30 questions and each one has five possible answers, of which only one is correct. If all answers wer

kumpel [21]

Answer: the probability is 0.13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, each question has 5 options and only one is correct.

Then, selecting at random, the probability of getting a correct answer is equal to:

p = 1/5 = 0.20 (and the probability of getting it incorrect is p = 4/5 = 0.80)

Now, if out of 30 questions, we got 4 correct and 26 incorrect, the probability for a given combination is;

p = (0.20^4)*(0.80^26)

But we also need to multiply this by the total number of combinations.

This is we have 30 questions in total, and we can select 4 of them that will be the correct ones.

Now, if we have N objects in total, the number of different combinations of K elements out of those N elements is

$C = \frac{N!}{(N-K)!*K!}$

In this case, N = 30 and K = 4.

$C = \frac{30!}{(30 -4)!*4!} = \frac{30*29*28*27}{4*3*2} = 27,405$

Then the probability of getting exactly 4 correct answers is:

P = (0.20^4)*(0.80^26)*27,405 = 0.13
