What is m∠BEC ? Enter your answer in the box.

Stels [109]

We are able to set 4x+32 equal to 6x-8 because these are congruent vertical angles

4x+32=6x-8
4x+40=6x (add 8 to both sides)
40=2x (subtract 4x from both sides)
X=20 (divide both sides by 2)

Then we plug in 20 for x into 6x-8 to find the answer

6(20)-8
=120-8
=112

Hope this helps!

A student takes an exam containing 1414 multiple choice questions. The probability of choosing a correct answer by knowledgeable

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the students guesses the correct answer, or he guesses the wrong answer. The probability of guessing the correct answer for a question is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

$n = 14, p = 0.3$ .

If the student makes knowledgeable guesses, what is the probability that he will pass?

He needs to guess at least 9 answers correctly. So

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 9) = C_{14,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{5} = 0.0066$

$P(X = 10) = C_{14,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{4} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.3)^{11}.(0.7)^{3} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.3)^{12}.(0.7)^{2} = 0.000024$

$P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.3)^{13}.(0.7)^{1} = 0.000002$

$P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.3)^{14}.(0.7)^{0} \cong 0$

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0066 + 0.0014 + 0.0002 + 0.000024 + 0.000002 = 0.0082$

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

The CPU of a personal computer has a lifetime that is exponentially distributed with a mean lifetime of six years. a) What is th

amm1812

Answer: Our required probability is 0.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

X be the exponentially distributed with mean life = 6 years

So, E[x]=6

$\dfrac{1}{\lambda}=6\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{1}{6}$

So, our cumulative distribution function would be

$F(x)=1-e^{-\lambda x}$

We need to find the probability that the CPU fails within 3 years.

$P(X$

Hence, our required probability is 0.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

Step 1: Define

Identify.

f(-2.4) = -1

f(-1.9) = -8

Step 2: Differentiate

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

[Derivative] Set up [Slope Formula]: $\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}$
Substitute in coordinates: $\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{-8 - -1}{-1.9 - -2.4}$
Evaluate: $\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx -14$
