It can't be for sure a perpendicular bisector cuz you don't know what kind of triangle you are dealing with so that one's out.  It's not necessarily an angle bisector either for the same reason. A median means that PS will go through the opposite side right in the center, and again, depending upon what type of triangle you have, this could be true...So it is an altitude, which is like a height of a triangle. It drops down from a vertex and forms a right angle with wherever it goes through. So D.

United Flight 15 from New York's JFK airport to San Francisco uses a Boeing 757-200 with 182 seats. Because some people with res
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

There is a 29.27% probability that the flight is overbooked. This is not an unusually low probability. So it does seem too high so that changes must be made to make it lower.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each passenger, there are only two outcomes possible. Either they show up for the flight, or they do not show up. This means that we can solve this problem using binomial distribution probability concepts.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And \pi is the probability of X happening.

A probability is said to be unusually low if it is lower than 5%.

For this problem, we have that:

There are 200 reservations, so n = 200.

A passenger consists in a passenger not showing up. There is a .0995 probability that a passenger with a reservation will not show up for the flight. So \pi = 0.0995.

Find the probability that when 200 reservations are accepted for United Flight 15, there are more passengers showing up than there are seats available.

X is the number of passengers that do not show up. It needs to be at least 18 for the flight not being overbooked. So we want to find P(X < 18), with \pi = 0.0995, n = 200. We can use a binomial probability calculator, and we find that:

P(X < 18) = 0.2927.

There is a 29.27% probability that the flight is overbooked. This is not an unusually low probability. So it does seem too high so that changes must be made to make it lower.

Point E is on line segment DF. Given DE<br> EF.<br> 6 and DF =9, determine the length EF
nlexa [21]

Answer:

<h2>3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

IF point E lies on the line segment DF, this means that all the points DEF are collinear and DE+EF = DF.

Given parameter

DE = 6

DF = 9

Required

EF

Substituting the given parameter into the expression above to get the required will be;

DE+EF = DF.

EF = DF-DE

EF = 9-6

EF = 3

Hence the length of EF is equivalent to 3
