Answer:

45.75 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 365 days in a regular year. A leap year adds 1 more day so there are 366 days in a year.

Drinking 1 pint a day will result in 366 pints in a leap year.

To find the number of gallons, divide 366 / 8 since there are 8 pints in 1 gallon.

366 / 8 = 45.75 gallons

46 gallons!

1 pint x 364 days = 364 pints

1 pint is equal to 0.12500009 gallons

So, 364 x 0.12500009 = 46!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a polynomial is determined by the largest exponent of a term within the polynomial.

Given

7x³ + 4x - 5 + 8 $x^{5}$

The term with the largest exponent is 8 $x^{5}$ with exponent 5

Thus the polynomial is of degree 5 → D

The computer that controls a bank's automatic teller machine crashes a mean of 0.6 times per day. What is the probability that,

professor190 [17]

Answer:

0.2103 = 21.03% probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times.

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 interval.

Mean of 0.6 times a day

7 day week, so $\mu = 7*0.6 = 4.2$

What is the probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times? Round your answer to four decimal places.

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

In which

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

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0150$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0630$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-4.2}*(4.2)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.1323$

$P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0150 + 0.0630 + 0.1323 = 0.2103$

0.2103 = 21.03% probability that, in any seven-day week, the computer will crash less than 3 times.

Triangle ABC

Virty [35]

Answer:

15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. This means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. To solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). Out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

$\frac{BC}{EF} =\frac{AC}{DF}$ .
