Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's form a proportion;
24 x
____ = _____ ,
9 2.25
24(2.25) = 9x,
54 = 9x,
x = height of soldier = 6 feet
Most quadratic functions(which is what you have there, to a degree of 2) are solved using factoring and the zero product law. If you can not factor then you have to use the quadratic formula or graph it. However this one can be factored.
It's pretty simple to just factor it by inspection but I use the chart method, if you know decomposition that works as well.
Factoring gives us,

Then you set each factor to 0 and solve for x,



And the second one,


The solutions to this equation are
x = -1/2, 3

Answer:
0.9885 (98.85%)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since sample is less than 10% of the population, we can use binomial distribution to approximate the probability.
So we want to calculate P( X < 20 ).
We can calculate the probability of complement event P( X = 20 ).
Use binomial formula b(x; n, p) = C( n, x ) p^(x) (1-p)^(n-x)
b( 20; 20, 0.8 )
= C( 20, 20 ) (0.8)^(20) (0.2)^0
= (0.8)^20 ≈ 0.0115
So since P( X < 20 ) = 1 - P( X = 20 ), we have
P( X < 20 ) ≈ 1 - 0.0115 = 0.9885
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
∠BCE + ∠ECF = 180°
∴(10x + 15)° + 5x° = 180°
(15x + 15)° = 180°
15x = 180° - 15°
15x = 165°
x = 165°/15°
x = 11°
