How to measure a basketball court

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago

Well, by using a yard stick. Using a ruler is too small, for a basketball court, because it measures both feet and inches, and since a court is WAY BIGGER than that, then you have to use a yard stick to measure it.

Michael thought he could read 23 pages of his book in class. He was only able to read 20. what is his percent error
Cerrena [4.2K]
Percent error is calculated using

((Actual - predicted) / actual) * 100

In this case, the actual value of the number of pages he read is 20. The expected value was 23. So simply plug in:

((20 - 23) / 20) * 100 = -15%

You are to take a multiple-choice exam consisting of 64 questions with 5 possible responses to each question. Suppose that you h
damaskus [11]

Answer:

a) Expected score on the exam is 12.8.

b) Variance 10.24, Standard deviation 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either you guesses the answer correctly, or you does not. The probability of guessing the answer of a question correctly is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The variance of the binomial distribution is:

V(X) = np(1-p)

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

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

64 questions.

So n = 64

5 possible answers, one correctly, chosen at random:

So p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2

(a) What is your expected score on the exam?

E(X) = np = 64*0.2 = 12.8

(b) Compute the variance and standard deviation of x. Variance =Standard deviation

V(X) = np(1-p) = 64*0.2*0.8 = 10.24

Variance 10.24

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{64*0.2*0.8} = 3.2

Standard deviation 3.2

Grace and her brother Sid want to raise money to go to band camp. Their parents have agreed to help them earn up to $400 by payi
LenKa [72]

Answer:

25m + 10b = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount that can be earned = $ 400

Amount earned on mowing a lawn = $ 25

Amount earned per hour on babysitting = $10

Amount earned for mowing one lawn is $ 25, so amount earned for mowing m lawns will be $ 25m

Amount earned for one hour of babysitting is $ 10, so amount earned for babysitting for b hours will be $ 10b

Total amount earned = Amount earned from mowing m lawns + Amount earned from babysitting for b hours

Using the values from above, we can set up the equation as:

400 = 25m + 10b

or

25m + 10b = 400

This equation represents the number of lawns they can mow, m, and hours they can babysit, b, to earn $400.
