Answer:

1.3559644*10^-^5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given we extract the following data

Total Number of Trials (N) = 191

Required Value (x) = 181 (notice it is not 180 since at that value we have enough passengers)

Odds of success (p) = 0.85

Using the binomial formula for calculating probability, i.e.

P(x; N, p) = nCx * p^x *(1-p)^{N-x}

Inputting the values

P(181; 191, 0.85) = 191C181 *0.85^{181}  *(1-0.85)^{191-181} \\ P(181; 191, 0.85) = 1.3559644*10^-^5

What is 90 decreased by 40%?
vaieri [72.5K]
Because it's decreasing, you use the formula (1-x/100)y with x the percentage decreased which is here 40, and y the number decreased which is here 90
So we get
(1-40/100) * 90
(100/100 - 40/100) * 90
60/100 * 90 
5400/100
54 
So 90 decreased by 40% is 54
Hope this Helps :)

Find the distance between the points (4,10) and (0,0) the answer must be a whole number
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

d = 2\sqrt{29}

Step-by-step explanation:

d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\d= \sqrt{(0-4)^2+(0-10)^2}\\d= \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-10)^2}\\d= \sqrt{16+100}\\d= \sqrt{116}\\d=2 \sqrt{29}

How do you solve this problem? I need help
Gnoma [55]
Check the picture below.

notice the bottom part of the picture, just using the tangent of the angle, we can get the angle itself, and you'd know what "x" and "y" are from the above part.

how much farther would they have to walk up? well, the hypotenuse of the longer triangle is "h", the hypotenuse of the shorter triangle is 122, so, they'd have to walk " h - 122 " more.
