Ben is 140cm tall. Mike is 1090mm tall. who is taller? How much taller?

1 answer:

Cm=centimetres

Mm=millimetres

1 meter=100 centimeters

1 meter=1,000 millimeters

So to solve your equation, you divide 140 by 100cm (since he is measured in centimetres)

140cm÷100cm=1.4 meters-is Ben's height

To solve Mike's height, you divide 1090 by 1,000mm (since he is measured in Millimetres)

1,090mm÷1,000mm=1.09 meters-is Mike's height

1.4 meters is greater than 1.09 meters

To see by how much, you subtract 1.4m by 1.09

$1.4-1.09=.31m$

$1.4>1.09$

Mike is taller than Mike by .31 meters or 31 in centimetres or 310 in millimetres

Write the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (4, 1) and (2, -5)

Sedbober [7]

Answer: $\bold{y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

(4, 1) & (2, -5)

First, find the slope (m) and then the perpendicular (opposite reciprocal) slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\\m=\dfrac{-5-1}{2-4} = \dfrac{-6}{-2}=3\quad \rightarrow \quad m_{\perp}=-\dfrac{1}{3}\\$

Next, find the midpoint of (4, 1) and (2, -5):

$Midpoint=\bigg(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=\bigg(\dfrac{4+2}{2},\dfrac{1-5}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=\bigg(\dfrac{6}{2},\dfrac{-4}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad=(3, -2)$

Lastly, input the perpendicular slope and the midpoint into the Point-Slope formula to find the equation of the line:

$y - y_1 = m_{\perp}(x - x_1)\\\\y - (-2) = -\dfrac{1}{3}(x - 3)\\\\y + 2=-\dfrac{1}{3}x +1\\\\y =-\dfrac{1}{3}x - 1\\$

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness = 0.00052.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have the following set of data or information or parameters given from the question above and they are; the number of people living in that particular society/community/town = 74,000 residents and the proportion of people that the diseases affected = .000215.

The first step to do is to determine the expected number of people with disease. Thus, the expected number of people with disease = 74,000 × .000215 = 15.91.

Hence, the probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness = 1.23 × 10^-7 × 15.91^30/ 2.65253 × 10^-32 = 0.00052.

Note the formula used in the calculating the probability that the town has 30 or fewer residents with the illness = e^-λ × λ^x/ x!
