1. Check the tree diagram in the picture attached.

2. The blue segment represents "on time"
    The red segment represents "not on time"


3. blue - blue - red represents the case 1st on time, 2nd on time, 3rd not on time.

the combined probability is 90/100*90/100*10/100=9/10*9/10*1/10=99/1000=0.099

4. Remark with a tree diagram we can tell anything asked about the probability of an experiment.

kevin has a rectangular-shaped garden its 15 feet by 12 feet wide he plants 36 square feet of tomatoes what percent of the garde
dusya [7]

Answer:

<u>20%</u> of the garden are tomatoes planted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Kevin has a rectangular-shaped garden its 15 feet by 12 feet wide.

He plants 36 square feet of tomatoes.

Now, to find the percent of the garden where tomatoes planted.

We need to get the total area of the garden first:

Total area of the garden =  15 feet by 12 feet.

                                         =  15 feet\times 12 feet.

                                         =  180\ square\ feet.

So, getting the area of the garden 180 square feet.

Now, we calculate the percent of the area of garden where tomatoes are planted:

\frac{Area\ of\ tomatoes\ planted}{Total\ area\ of\ garden} \times 100.

=\frac{36\ square\ feet}{180\ square\ feet} \times 100

=\frac{36}{180} \times 100

=\frac{3600}{180}

=20\%.

Therefore, 20% of the garden where are tomatoes planted.

A large university is interested in the outcome of a course standardization process. They have taken a random sample of 100 stud
quester [9]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Number of sample, n = 100

p = 0.78

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.78

q = 0.22

For a confidence level of 90%, the corresponding z value is 1.645.

The formula for determining the error bound for the proportion is

z × √pq/n

= 1.645 ×√(0.78 × 0.22)/100

= 1.645 × 0.0414 = 0.068

The upper boundary of the population proportion is

0.78 + 0.068 = 0.85

The lower boundary of the population proportion is

0.78 - 0.068 = 0.71

b) For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96.

Therefore,

= 1.96 ×√(0.78 × 0.22)/100

= 1.96 × 0.0414 = 0.081

The upper boundary of the population proportion is

0.78 + 0.081 = 0.86

The lower boundary of the population proportion is

0.78 - 0.081 = 0.7

The longer leg of a right triangle is 4cm longer than the shorter leg. the hypotenuse is 8cm longer than the shorter leg. find t
Alexeev081 [22]
Longer leg = x + 4

Shorter leg = x

Hypotenuse = x + 8


Using Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2

x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64

2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64

2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48

2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48

x^2 - 8x = 48

x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0

You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.

Completing the square:

x^2 - 8x = 48

x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16

(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64

x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64

x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8

x = 12 OR x = -4

However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.

So x will be 12.


Shorter leg: 12

Longer leg: 12 + 4

Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
