-9(-3 1/3 - 4) how do I solve that math problem?

1 answer:

3 0

You need to use the distributive property. So you take the -9 from outside the parentheses and multiply itself by the numbers inside.

28% of what number is 63

Scrat [10]

We set up a proportion: 63/?= 28/100

Cross multiply: 28*?= 63*100
⇒ ?= 63*100/28= 225

28% of 225 is 63.

The number of phone calls that Actuary Ben receives each day has a Poisson distribution with mean 0.1 during each weekday and me

Dovator [93]

Answer:

There is a 0.73% probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

$e = 2.71828$ is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

The problem states that:

The number of phone calls that Actuary Ben receives each day has a Poisson distribution with mean 0.1 during each weekday and mean 0.2 each day during the weekend.

To find the mean during the time interval, we have to find the weighed mean of calls he receives per day.

There are 5 weekdays, with a mean of 0.1 calls per day.

The weekend is 2 days long, with a mean of 0.2 calls per day.

So:

$\mu = \frac{5(0.1) + 2(0.2)}{7} = 0.1286$

If today is Monday, what is the probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week?

This is $P(X = 2)$ . So:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-0.1286}*0.1286^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0073$

There is a 0.73% probability that Ben receives a total of 2 phone calls in a week.

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle FED, find the measure of x. A. X = 9 B. X = 11 C. X = 110 D. X = 231

just olya [345]

Answer:

$A+B+C=130$

$F+E+D=273$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Dimension of ABC

A=9

B=11

C=110

Dimension of FED

D=231

Generally the equation for the similar triangles is mathematically given by

$\frac{A}{F}=\frac{B}{E}=\frac{C}{D}$

Therefore solving for F

$\frac{9}{F}=\frac{110}{231}$

$F=\frac{9*231}{110}$

$F=18.9$

Therefore solving for E

$\frac{11}{E}=\frac{110}{231}$

$E=\frac{11*231}{110}$

$E=23.1$

Measure of $\triangle ABC$

$A+B+C=130$

Measure of $\triangle FED$

$F+E+D=273$
