Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of nickels and dimes by n and d.

The value of these nickels and dimes will be $0.05n + $0.10d ≤ $2.00.

(look at image) can someone explain to me how to do number 1

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

so it would be y= -4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

its asking to write the equation in slope-intercept form so y=mx+b m in this case is -4 and b whihc is the y-intercept is 3 so you just write the equation y= -4x + 3

Assume that there is a 4% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. If all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive wit

kap26 [50]

Answer:

a) 99.84% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive

b) 99.999744% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive

Step-by-step explanation:

For each disk drive, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. The disks are independent. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

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

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

4% rate of disk drive failure in a year.

This means that 96% work correctly, $p = 0.96$

a. If all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk drive, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?

This is $P(X \ geq 1)$ when $n = 2$

We know that either none of the disks work, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1$

We want $P(X \geq 1)$ . So

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.96)^{0}.(0.04)^{2} = 0.0016$

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0016 = 0.9984$

99.84% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive

b. If copies of all your computer data are stored on four independent hard disk drives, what is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?

This is $P(X \ geq 1)$ when $n = 4$

We know that either none of the disks work, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

$P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1$

We want $P(X \geq 1)$ . So

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.96)^{0}.(0.04)^{4} = 0.00000256$

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.00000256 = 0.99999744$

99.999744% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive

What is the area of the sector with a central angle of 49° and a radius of 11 cm? Use 3.14 for pi and round your final answer to

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{51.71 cm}^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angle θ is in radians, the formula for the area (A) of a sector of a circle is

A = ½r²θ

If θ is in degrees

$A = \dfrac{1}{2}r^{2}\theta \times \dfrac{\pi \text{ rad}}{180^{\circ}}= \pi r^{2}\times\dfrac{\theta }{360}$

Data:

θ = 49°

r = 11 cm

Calculation:

$\begin{array}{rcl}A& = &3.14\times 11^{2}\times\dfrac{49}{360}\\\\ & = &3.14 \times 121 \times 0.1361\\ & = & \mathbf{51.71}\\\end{array}\\\text{The area of the sector is }\boxed{\textbf{51.71 cm}^{2}}$
