The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is :-

Area of a △ = (Base * Height)/2

Now, according to question,

Base = 10.2 in

Height = 8 in

Now, substitute these values in the formula.

Area = (10.2 * 8)/2

= (81.6)/2

= 40.8 in²

=> So the area of the given △ is 40.8 in² ( Option C ).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of triangle we use the formula :

$P=\frac{a \cdot h}{2} =\frac{10,2 \cdot 8}{2} =10,2 \cdot 4=40,8$ in²

Answer:

a) For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15

b) $P(X=0)=(10C0)(0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}=0.1969$

c) $P(X=3)=(10C3)(0.15)^3 (1-0.15)^{10-3}=0.1298$

d) $P(X \geq 1)= 1-P(X$

And using the result from part a we got:

$P(X \geq 1)= 1-P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n p)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

Part a

For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X=0)$

And replacing we got:

$P(X=0)=(10C0)(0.15)^0 (1-0.15)^{10-0}=0.1969$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X=3)$

And replacing we got:

$P(X=3)=(10C3)(0.15)^3 (1-0.15)^{10-3}=0.1298$

Part d

For this cae we want thi probability:

$P(X \geq 1)$

And we can use the complment rule and we got:

$P(X \geq 1)= 1-P(X$

And using the result from part a we got:

$P(X \geq 1)= 1-P(X$

If it takes Leaping Louie 5 minutes to jump 3 blocks, how long will it take for him to jump 15 blocks?

Svetach [21]

25 minutes
3 blocks x 5 = 15 blocks

Therefore,
5 minutes x 5 = 25 minutes

A counter top is 18 feet long and 3 feet wide. What is the area of the counter top in square meters? Use the conversion 1 foot =

podryga [215]

Answer:

Area of the counter top is $5.02\ m^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the Counter top = 18 feet

Width of the counter top = 3 feet

We need to find the area of the counter top is square meter;

Solution:

Now we need to find the area of the counter top is square meter.

But given data is in feet so we will first convert feet into meters.

1 foot = 0.305 meter.

So 18 feet = Number of meters in 18 feet.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 18 feet = $18\times 0.305 = 5.49\ m$

Length of the Counter top = 5.49 m

Also 3 feet = Number of meters in 3 feet.

Again Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 3 feet = $3\times 0.305 = 0.915\ m$

Width of the counter top = 0.915 m

Now we know that;

Area of the counter top can be calculated by multiplying Length of the counter top with width of the counter top.

framing in equation form we get;

Area of the counter top = $5.49\times 0.915 = 5.0233\ m^2$

Rounding up to 2 decimals we get;

Area of the counter top = $5.02\ m^2$

Hence Area of the counter top is $5.02\ m^2$ .

A preschool teacher has 17.5 feet of yarn for her students to make necklaces to raise money for a local animal shelter each neck

Scorpion4ik [409]

17.5x12=210
210 divided by 14=15
15x2.50=37.5
37.5
17.5 is feet so you need to divide by 12 for inches which gets 210 and you need each necklace to be 14 inches so you need to divide 210 by 14 which is 15 each necklace costs 2.50 so you multiply 2.50x15
You get 37.5
