36-16=20

20•2=40

Jill started off with 40 comic books

Hope this helps!

Since Jill sold <u>half</u>, you would solve this by multiplying 36 by 2, which would be 64. A way to check this would be to divide your answer, or 62 by 2 (which symbolizes half).

Let x ∼ bin(9, 0.4). find
Kobotan [32]
A.
\mathbb P(X>6)=\mathbb P(X=7)+\mathbb P(X=8)+\mathbb P(X=9)
=\dbinom97(0.4)^7(1-0.4)^{9-7}+\dbinom98(0.4)^8(1-0.4)^{9-8}+\dbinom99(0.4)^9(1-0.4)^{9-9}
\approx0.025

b.
\mathbb P(X\ge2)=1-\mathbb P(X
=1-\dbinom90(0.4)^0(1-0.4)^{9-0}-\dbinom91(0.4)^1(1-0.4)^{9-1}
\approx0.929

c.
\mathbb P(2\le X
=\dbinom92(0.4)^2(1-0.4)^{9-2}+\dbinom93(0.4)^3(1-0.4)^{9-3}+\dbinom94(0.4)^4(1-0.4)^{9-4}
\approx0.663

d.
\mathbb P(2
=\dbinom93(0.4)^3(1-0.4)^{9-3}+\dbinom94(0.4)^4(1-0.4)^{9-4}+\dbinom95(0.4)^5(1-0.4)^{9-5}
\approx0.669

e.
\mathbb P(X=0)=\dbinom90(0.4)^0(1-0.4)^{9-0}\approx0.01

f.
\mathbb P(X=7)=\dbinom97(0.4)^7(1-0.4)^{9-7}\approx0.021

g, h.
For X\sim\mathcal B(n,p), recall that \mathbb &#10;E[X]=\mu_X=np and \mathbb V[X]={\sigma_X}^2=np(1-p). So

\mu_X=9(0.4)=3.6
{\sigma_X}^2=9(0.4)(0.6)=2.16

A straight slide in a playground design makes an isosceles triangle with the
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • First, the you need ti understand that the triangle is an isosceles right angled triangle. In other words, the base and height are equal in length. The third side is the slide. This is the longest side.
  • Next, we know that the formula for calculating the area of a right angled triangle is given by:

        A = 1/2 (base × perpendicular height)

  • The perpendicular height is equal to the base. Let's say the base is <em>x</em>. It means that the height is also x, since height = base.
  • Therefore, the formula will be:

       A = 1/2 (x.x)

           =1/2 (x²)

      32 = 1/2 (x²)

     Multiplying both sides by 2 gives:

     32×2 = x²

     64  = x²

       8   = x

To find the third side, we use the Pythagoras theorem:

    C² = A² + B²

         = 8² + 8²

         = 128

   C = √128

       = 8√2

However, the answer will not be exact, so we  multiply the length of the base and height by 2. This gives x = 16 (Length of base = length of height)

Repeating the steps above gives C = √ (16)² + (16)²

                                                           = √256

This corresponds to option D.

BrainiestI WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST look at the right angled triangle abc
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

x = 90°

y = 40°

z = 40°

Explanation (Concepts) :

A straight line has total 180° angle. A square has 4 sides of each 90° angle. A triangle is build up of 180° interior angle.

Workouts:

z + 90° + 50° = 180°

z = 180° - 90° - 50°

z = 40°

=================

x + 90° = 180°

x = 180° - 90°

x = 90°

==================

50° + 90° + y = 180°

y = 180° - 90° - 50°

y = 40°
