Answer: 29.41 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following information given in the problem:

- The fat percentage that the person has is 17.2%

- The person weighs 171 pounds.

Therefore, to calculate the amount of pounds of her weight is made up of fat (which you can call x), you must multiply the weight of the person by the fat percentage.

Therefore, you obtain the following result:

$x=171lb*0.172\\x=29.41lb$

) The manager of a local Gap store estimates that on average the probability of a customer entering the store and will purchase

xeze [42]

Answer: 1. 0.0256

2. 0.4096

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula , to find the probability of getting x successes:

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where n= Total number of trials

p= Probability of getting success in each trial.

Let x be the number of customers will make purchase.

As per given , we have

p= 0.20

n= 4

1. The probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be:-

$P(x=3)=^4C_3(0.20)^3(1-0.20)^{4-3}$

$P(x=3)=(4)(0.20)^3(0.80)^{1}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{n-1}=n]$

$P(x=3)=(4)(0.008)(0.80)=0.0256$

Hence, the probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase = 0.0256

2. The probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be :

$P(x=0)=^4C_0(0.20)^0(1-0.20)^{4-0}$

$P(x=0)=(1)(0.80)^{4}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{0}=1]$

$P(x=0)=0.4096$

Hence, the probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase= 0.4096

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 csc²x-2 csc x-1=0

$\frac{2}{sin^2x} -\frac{2}{sin x} -1=0\\multiply~by~sin^2x\\2-2sin~x-sin^2x=0\\sin^2x+2sinx-2=0\\sin ~x=\frac{-2 \pm\sqrt{2^2-4*1*(-2)} }{2*1} \\=\frac{-2 \pm\sqrt{4+8} }{2} \\=\frac{-2 \pm\sqrt{4*3} }{2} \\=\frac{-2 \pm2\sqrt{3} }{2} \\=-1\pm\sqrt{3} \\|sin~x| \le ~1\\so~sin~x=-1+\sqrt{3} \\sin~x=\sqrt{3} -1\\x=sin^{-1}(\sqrt{3} -1) \approx 47.06^\circ,180-47.06\\or~x=47.06^\circ,132.94^\circ$

For questions 8 – 10, answer the questions about tangent-tangent angles.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Step-by-step explanation:

8). Formula for the angle formed outside the circle by the intersection of two tangents or two secants is,

Angle formed by two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(220-140)$

= $\frac{1}{2}(80)$

= 40°

9). Following the same rule as above,

Angle formed between two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

125 = $\frac{1}{2}[m(\text{major arc})-m(\text{minor arc})]$

250 = $[m(\text{arc ZWY})-m(\text{arc ZY})]$

250 = m(arc ZWY) - 55

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Therefore, measure of arc ZWY = 305° will be the answer.

10). m(arc BAC) = $\frac{1}{2}([m(\text{arc BDC})-m(\text{arc BC})])$

= $\frac{1}{2}(254-106)$

= $\frac{148}{2}$

= 74°

-2w(w+8) what is the answer

Julli [10]

-2w (w + 8)
Assuming that it is a polynomial from which you must find the roots, we must first rewrite it:
-2w (w + 8) = 0
The roots are then:
w1 = 0
w2 = -8
Assuming you only have to rewrite the expression, the answer is:
-2w ^ 2 -16w
Answer:
w1 = 0
w2 = -8
-2w ^ 2 -16w
