Answer:

Let X be the number of times the target is hit. The probability P(X≥1) then equals 1 minus the probability of missing the target three times:

P(X≥1) = 1− (1−P(A)) (1−P(B)) (1−P(C))

           = 1−0.4*0.3*0.2

           = 0.976

To find the probability P(X≥2) of hitting the target at least twice, you can consider two cases: either two people hit the target and one does not, or all people hit the target. We find:

P(X≥2)=(0.4*0.7*0.8)+(0.6*0.3*0.8)+(0.6*0.7*0.2)+(0.6*0.7*0.8) = 0.788

4. If A = (-4, -5) and B = (-1, -10), what is the length of segment AB? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

5.83095 or √34

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference between coordinates:

(x2-x1) = (-1 - -4) = 3

(y2-y1) = (-10 - -5) = -5

Square the results and sum them up:

(3)2 + (-5)2 = 9 + 25 = 34

Now Find the square root and that's your result:

Exact solution: √34 = √34

Approximate solution: 5.831
