Jana is doing an experiment. She is on a dock that is 10 feet above the surface of the water. Jana drops the weighed end of a fi

shing line 35 feet below the surface of the water. She reels out the line 29 feet, and then reels it back in 7 feet. What is the final distance between Jana and the end of the finishing line?

To solve we have the following equation below,

Assumption: Line of reference is the surface of the water.

Final distance between Jana & fishing line = (dock height) +(reels out) -(reels back)  


Final distance between Jana & fishing line = 10 + 35+ 29 - 7 = 67 feet

<em> ANSWER: 67 feet</em>

a certain pharmaceutical company know that, on average 4% of a certain type of pill has an ingredient that is below the minimum
FinnZ [79.3K]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0% probability that fewer that 5 in a sample of 20 pills will be acceptable.

For each pill, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is acceptable, or it is not. The probability of a pill being acceptable is independent of any other pill, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • The sample has 20 pills, hence n = 20.
  • 100 - 4 = 96% are acceptable, hence p = 0.96

The probability that <u>fewer that 5 in a sample of 20 pills</u> will be acceptable is:

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

In which

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

P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.96)^{0}.(0.04)^{20} = 0

P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.96)^{1}.(0.04)^{19} = 0

P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.96)^{2}.(0.04)^{18} = 0

P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.96)^{3}.(0.04)^{17} = 0

P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.96)^{4}.(0.04)^{16} = 0

0% probability that fewer that 5 in a sample of 20 pills will be acceptable.

What is the vertex of the graph of the function f(x) = x² + 8x - 2?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

(4, -18)

Step-by-step explanation:

First  Use this formula for the x -axis  -b/2a  

-8/2(1) is -4

Then plug in -4 to the equation

(-4)^2+8(-4)-2 = -18

Blueberry high-fiber muffins contain 51 % dietary fiber by mass. If a package with a net weight of 18 oz contains six muffins, h
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

In each muffin there are 1.53oz

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to get the weight of just one muffin. If the package contains six muffins we must divide the total weight by six.

weight_{unit}=\frac{18oz}{6}=3oz

The weight of just one muffin is 3oz.

Now, the problem says that blueberry high-fiber muffins contain 51 % dietary fiber by mass, which means that we must calculate the 51% of 3oz. We must take into account that 51% equals 51/100 which is 0.51. The equation would be:

fiber=(3oz)(0.51)=1.53oz

Finally, in each muffin there are 1.53oz of fiber.
