ch4aika [34]4 years ago

5 0

Answer:

x = 1 ; x = -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x^2 + 5x - 7=0\\=> 2x^2 - 2x + 7x - 7=0\\=> 2x(x - 1) + 7(x - 1)=0\\=> (x - 1) (2x + 7)=0\\$

Here the sol. of x =

1) x - 1 = 0

=> x = 1

2) 2x + 7 = 0

=> 2x = -7

=> x = -7/2

It is given that yvaries directly as x. If y= 5 when x= 4 determine the constant of variation,

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

$k=\dfrac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

y varies directly as x. It means,

y = kx

Where

k is the constant of variation

$k=\dfrac{y}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{5}{4}$

So, the constant of variation is $\dfrac{5}{4}$ .

The probability that a male will be colorblind is .042. Find the probabilities that in a group of 53 men, the following are true

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

$\displaystyle P(X=x)=\binom{n}{x}p^xq^{n-x}\\\\P(X=5)=\binom{53}{5}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X=5)=\frac{53!}{(53-5)!*5!}(0.042)^5(0.958)^{48}\\\\P(X=5)\approx0.0478$

Part B

$P(X\leq5)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\P(X\leq5)=\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^1(1-0.042)^{53-1}+\binom{53}{2}(0.042)^2(1-0.042)^{53-2}+\binom{53}{3}(0.042)^3(1-0.042)^{53-3}+\binom{53}{4}(0.042)^4(1-0.042)^{53-4}+\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X\leq5)\approx0.9767$

Part C

$\displaystyle P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\\\P(X\geq1)=1-(1-0.042)^{53}\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx1-0.1029\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx0.8971$
