Bearing in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise function with two cases, thus

$\bf |-n|=
\begin{cases}
+(-n)\\
-(-n)
\end{cases}\implies 
\begin{cases}
-n\\
n
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
n|-n|=2n\implies 
\begin{cases}
n-n=2n\implies 0=2n\implies &0=n\\
n+n=2n\implies 2n=2n\impliedby &inconsistent
\end{cases}$

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: 20 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mirror is set away from the flagpole on the same scale set away from her.

The distance she stand's away from the mirror is 1/4 of the length of the distance between the mirror and the flag pole because she's 1/4 of the flagpole's size.

This means her size x4 is the size for the flag pole. This checks out because 12x4=48

So to find the height we must do 5x4

5x4=20

Answer:

19.49% probability that no more than 16 of them are strikes

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .
