20 boys signed up
# of girls who signed up was 195% of the number of boys who signed up

Find 195% of 20:

1.95 * 20 = 39

So 39 girls signed up.

To find out what percent of girls who signed up for the play attended the auditions, divide 26 to the total number of girls who signed up:

26 / 39 = 0.666666667

Multiply by 100:

0.666666667 * 100 = 66.6666667%

So approximately 66.67% or 66 2/3%

Question 9 20% of a particular brand of light bulbs fail in one year. What is the probability that three bulbs out of a random c
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the probability is as follows:

X\sim Bin (n,p)

Here

n = 8

p = 0.20 or 20%

Now this is a binomial probability distribution

P(X) = ^nC_x \times p^x \tmes (1 - p)^{n-x}\\\\P(3) = ^8C_3 \tims 0.20^3 \times (1 - 0.20)^5

= 0.15

Hence, the correct answer is 0.15

Which equation has the same soultions as x^2+6×-7=0
blagie [28]
x^2+6x-7=0 \\   a=1 \\ b= 6 \\ c=-7 \\ \\  \boxed{\boxed{\Delta=b^2-4ac}} \\ \\ \Delta=6^2-4*1*(-7) \\ \Delta=36-(-28) \\ \Delta=64 \\ \Delta\ \textgreater \ 0 \Rightarrow \text{we have 2 solutions :} X_1 \ and X_2 \\ \\ \boxed{X_1= \frac{-b- \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_1= \frac{-6-8}{2}=-7 \\ \\ \boxed{X_2= \frac{-b+ \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_2= \frac{-6+8}{2} =1

Hi :) how to do question 7 ?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the equation of a circle is written this way :

(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r² where (x,y) are the coordinates of the cercle's points and (a,b) the coordinates of the cercle's center and r the radius .

Our task is to khow the values of a and b :

  • We khow that the center is lying on the line 3x+2y=16⇒ 2y=-3x+16⇒ y= \frac{-3}{2}x+8  
  • We khow that the points P and Q are two points in the cercle
  • Let Ω be the center of this cercle
  • we can notice that : PΩ AND QΩ are both equal to the radius ⇒ PΩ=QΩ= r
  • So let's write the expression of this distance using vectors KHOWING THAT Ω(a,b)
  • Vector PΩ(a-4,b-6) and Vector QΩ(a-8,b-2)
  • PΩ=\sqrt{(a-4)^{2}+(b-6)^{2}  } and QΩ=\sqrt{(a-8)^{2}+(b-2)^{2}   }
  • Let's substitute a by x and b by y
  • PΩ=QΩ we substitute each distance by its expression
  • After simplyfying the expressions we get finally : -12+8x-8y=0
  • now we have -12x +8x-8y=0 and the line equation 3x+2y-16=0
  • these are simultanious equations so after solving them we get x=3.8 wich is approximatively 4 and y=2
  • we substitute a by 4 and y by 2 in PΩ to get the radius
  • we get r = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+(2-6)^{2}  } = 4
  • so r²= 16
  • then the equation is : (x-4)²+(y-2)²=16
