in a metal alloy, the ratio of zinc to copper is 3 to 17. If there are 510 lb of copper, how much zinc is there?

What is the height of a rectangle<br> whose base is 40 inches and whose<br> diagonal is 41 inches?

romanna [79]

Answer:

You must draw a right triangle and label the hypotenuse as 41 and the longest leg (horizontal in this case, since we are to determine the height) as 40. We do not know the height so call it h.

Now the Pythagorean (sp /) Theorem states that the square of the hyp. is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs.

so, 41 ^ 2 = 40 ^ 2 + h ^ 2

41 ^ 2 = 1681 40 ^ 2 = 1600 Therefore h ^2 must be equal to 81. This means that h = 9.

The height is 9 inches.

Five Cs Bank issues credit cards to its customers. In the past 3.4% of the out-of-state nonfraudulent credit card transactions w

kolezko [41]

Answer:

0.0838 (8.62%)

Step-by-step explanation:

defining the event G= an out-of-state transaction took place in a gasoline station , then the probability is

P(G) = probability that the transaction is fraudulent * probability that took place in a gasoline station given that is fraudulent + probability that the transaction is not fraudulent * probability that took place in a gasoline station given that is not fraudulent = 0.033 * 0.092 + 0.977 * 0.034 = 0.0362

then we use the theorem of Bayes for conditional probability. Defining also the event F= the transaction is fraudulent , then

P(F/G)=P(F∩G)/P(G) = 0.033 * 0.092 /0.0362 = 0.0838 (8.62%)

where

P(F∩G)= probability that the transaction is fraudulent and took place in a gasoline station

P(F/G)= probability that the transaction is fraudulent given that it took place in a gasoline station

An insurance company sells automobile liability and collision insurance. Let X denote the percentage of liability policies that

qaws [65]

Answer:

-764.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the joint cumulative distribution of X and Y as

$F(x,y) = \frac{xy(x+y)}{2000000}\ \ \ \, \ 0\leq x100, 0\leq y\leq 100$

#First find $F_x$ and probability distribution function , $f_x(x)$ :

$F_x(x)=F(x,100)\\\\\\=\frac{100x(x+100)}{2000000}\\\\\\\\=\frac{100x^2+10000x}{2000000}\\\\\\=>f_x(x)=\frac{x}{10000}+\frac{1}{200}$

#Have determined the probability distribution unction , $f_x(x)$ , we calculate the Expectation of the random variable X:

$E(X)=\int\limits^{100}_0 \frac{x^2}{10000}+\frac{x}{200} dx \\\\\\\\=|\frac{x^3}{30000}+\frac{x^2}{400}|\limits^{100}_0\\\\=58.33\\\\$

#We then calculate $E(X^2)$ :

$E(X^2)=\int\limits^{100}_0 \frac{x^3}{10000}+\frac{x^2}{200}\ dx\\\\=\frac{x^4}{40000}+\frac{x^3}{600}|\limits^{100}_0=4166.67\\\\Var(X)=E(X^2)-(E(X))^2=4166.67-58.33^2\\\\Var(X)=764.28$

Hence, the Var(X) is 764.28

Al abrir su alcancía Beatriz encontró que entre monedas de 5, 10 y 25 centavos completaba $ 9.50. Encontró igualmente que el núm

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

67 monedas de 5, 34 de 10 y 11 de 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Representemos el primer enunciado de manera algebraica:

$5x+10y+25z =950$ (1)

Donde:

x es el numero de monedas de 5
y es el numero de monedas de 10
z es el numero de monedas de 25

Ahora, el número de monedas de 10 centavos era el triple de las de 25 centavos y que las de 5 centavos era el doble de las de 10 centavos, se puede representar como:

$y=3z$ (2)
