Jen traveled a distance of 170 miles in 2 hours and 45 min. Express her speed, in miles per hour to the nearest tenth

From experience, it is known that on average 10% of welds performed by a particular welder are defective. if this welder is requ

Binomial distribution can be used because the situation satisfies all the following conditions:1. Number of trials is known and remains constant (n)2. Each trial is Bernoulli (i.e. exactly two possible outcomes) (success/failure)3. Probability is known and remains constant throughout the trials (p)4. All trials are random and independent of the othersThe number of successes, x, is then given by $P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ where $C(n,x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$
Here we're given
p=0.10 [ success = defective ]
n=3

(a) x=0
$P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$=C(3,0)0.1^0(1-0.1)^{3-0}$
$=1(1)(0.729)$
$=0.729$

(b) x=2
$P(x)=C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}$
$=3(0.01)(0.9)$
$=0.027$

(c) x ≥ 2
$P(x)=\sum_{x=2}^3C(n,x)p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
$=P(2)+P(3)$
$=C(n,2)p^2(1-p)^{n-2}+C(n,3)p^3(1-p)^{n-3}$
$=C(3,2)0.1^2(1-0.1)^{3-2}+C(3,3)0.1^3(1-0.1)^{3-3}$
$=3(0.01)(0.9)+1(0.001)1$
$=0.027+0.001$
$=0.028$

Identify the factors of x2-8x-20

sukhopar [10]

Simplifying x2 + -8x = 20 Reorder the terms: -8x + x2 = 20 Solving -8x + x2 = 20 Solving for variable 'x'. Reorder the terms: -20 + -8x + x2 = 20 + -20 Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0 -20 + -8x + x2 = 0 Factor a trinomial. (-2 + -1x)(10 + -1x) = 0 Subproblem 1Set the factor '(-2 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -2 + -1x = 0 Solving -2 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + -1x = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + 2 -1x = 0 + 2 Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2 -1x = 2 Divide each side by '-1'. x = -2 Simplifying x = -2 Subproblem 2Set the factor '(10 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 10 + -1x = 0 Solving 10 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-10' to each side of the equation. 10 + -10 + -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -10 -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10 -1x = -10 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 10 Simplifying x = 10Solutionx = {-2, 10}

Round each factor to the nearest ten to estimate the product of 34 . 39

aev [14]

Answer:

Round 34 down to 30 then round 39 up to 40

Step-by-step explanation:

34 ⟶ 30 34 is rounded down to 30

39 ⟶ 40 39 rounded up to 40

34 ⟶ 30

39 ⟶ 40

34 is rounded down to 30

39 rounded up to 40

Calculate mentally 34 × 39 = 1326

The estimated product is 1326.

Answer:

y=-1/2x+4 Is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

3=2x+4
