How do you find endpoints of a line segment with a given endpoint and midpoint?
seraphim [82]

In order to find the second endpoint or a line segment given the first and the midpoint, you need to realize that the midpoint is an average of the two endpoints. Given that fact, we can derive this formula looking at x values of points A and B with midpoint M. Remember this is only looking at the x values.

(A + B)/2 = M

So if we are looking for A, we can solve for A and use this modified formula.

(A + B)/2 = M

A + B = 2M

A = 2M - B

Now we can do this with the y values of these points as well. We then have the coordinates of both parts of A.

There are n machines in a factory, each of them has defective rate of 0.01. Some maintainers are hired to help machines working.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a) 1 - ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k!

b) 1 - ∑^(80x/d)_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k!

c) ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 (3^k)/k! = 0.99e³

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given that;

if n ⇒ ∞

p ⇒ 0

⇒ np = Constant = λ,  we can apply poisson approximation

⇒ Here 'p' is small ( p=0.01)

⇒ if (n=large) we can approximate it as prior distribution

⇒ let the number of defective items be d

so p(d) = ((e^-λ) × λ) / d!

NOW

a)

Let there be x number of repairs, So they will repair 20x machines on time. So if the number of defective machine is greater than 20x they can not repair it on time.

λ[n0.01]

p[ d > 20x ] = 1 - [ d ≤ 20x ]

= 1 - ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k!

b)

Similarly in this case if number of machines d > 80x/3;

Then it can not be repaired in time

p[ d > 80x/3 ]

1 - ∑^(80x/d)_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k!

c)

n = 300, lets do it for first case i.e;

p [ d > 20x } ≤ 0.01

1 - ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k! = 0.01

⇒ ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 ((e^-λ) × λ^k) / k! = 0.99

⇒ ∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 (λ^k)/k! = 0.99e^λ

∑²⁰ˣ_k=0 (3^k)/k! = 0.99e³

A solution to the inequality 3.75 – 3x ≤ 6.
LenKa [72]

Answer:

x ≥ -0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

3.75 - 3x ≤ 6

Subtract 3.75 on both sides.

- 3x ≤ 6 - 3.75

- 3x ≤ 2.25

Divide both sides with -3.

x ≥ 2.25/-3

x ≥ -0.75

Money is borrowed at 15% simple interest. After one year,$1181.05 pays off the loan. How much was originally borrowed?
marin [14]

Answer: $787 was originally borrowed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

I represents interest paid on the loan.

P represents the principal or amount taken as loan

R represents interest rate

T represents the duration of the loan in years.

From the information given,

Total amount = $1181.05

Interest = total amount - principal

I = 1181.05 - P

R = 15%

T = 1 year

Therefore,

1181.05 - P

Therefore,

1181.05 - P = (P × 15 × 1)/100

1181.05 - P = 0.15P

P + 0.15P = 1181.0

1.5P = 1181.05

P = 1181.05/1.5

P = $787

Please help me with this
Ronch [10]
Think of it as two rectangular prisms next to each other, and find the volume of each one separately.

The big one on the left has a volume of 4 * 12 * 6, or 288.

The smaller one on the right has a volume of 2 * 6 * 6, or 72.

288 + 72 = 360. 360 cubic feet of water are needed.
