Answer:

Equation used to solve for x is  2x + 2.1 = 7.5

The value equal sides of triangle is 2.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 7.5 m and the shortest side, y, measures 2.1 m.

We have to find the value of x.

Since y is shortest sides and the triangle given is isosceles thus the other two sides must be equal.

So, length of two equal sides is x.

Then equation becomes,

⇒  x + x + y = 7.5

⇒  2x + y = 7.5

Substitute the values of y = 2.1 , and solve for x, we have

⇒  2x + 2.1 = 7.5

Subtract 2.1 both side, we get,

⇒  2x = 7.5 - 2.1

Divide both side by 2, we get,

⇒  x = 2.7

Thus, the value equal sides of triangle is 2.7 m.

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides of the same length and one side that's not the same length.

So it says the shortest side, y, is 2.1m, so that means it's the side that is not the same length as the other two sides.

But the other two sides will be the same length. Let's make those 2 sides x.

The equation would be
x + x + 2.1 = 7.5

And with that you can find x.

$4.95 chocolate bars are now on sale for 35% off. what will the chocolate bars cost now? (show work)
Tema [17]
= 4.95 X .65 = 3.2175 ( 3.22).
4.95 = 100% of the price
100 less 35 = 65
4.95 X .65% = 3.2175 or 3.22

Samples of 20 parts from a metal punching process are selected every hour. Typically, 1% of the parts require rework. Let X deno
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

a) P(X>np+3\sqrt{np(1-p)}=0.017

b) P(x>1)=0.190

c) P(Y>1)=0.651

Step-by-step explanation:

This a binomial experiment where success is denoted by parts that need rework.

X ∼ B(n, p); n = 20; p = 0.01

The expected value of X is: E(X) = np =20×0.01= 0.2

The variance is: Var(X) = np(1 − p) = 0.2 × 0.99 = 0.198,

The standard deviation SD(X)= \sqrt{0.198} ≈ 0.445

a) P(X>np+3\sqrt{np(1-p)}=P(X>0.2+3×0.445)=P(X>1.535)=P(X≥2)

Probability function is given by:

\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} *p^x*(1-p)^{(n-x)}

P(X≥2)=1-P(X<2)=1-P(X=1)-P(X=0)= 1 - \frac{20!}{1!(20-1)!} *(0.01)^{1}*(1-0.01)^{(20-1)}-\frac{20!}{0!(20-0)!} *(0.01)^{0}*(1-0.01)^{(20-0)}

P(X≥2)=1-0.165-0.818=0.017

b) p=0.04

P(x>1)=P(x≥2)= 1 - P(x=1) - P(x=0)= 1 - \frac{20!}{0!(20-1)!} *(0.04)^{1}*(1-0.04)^{(20-1)} - \frac{20!}{0!(20-0)!} *(0.04)^{0}*(1-0.04)^{(20-0)}

P(x>1)= 1 - 0.368 - 0.442=0.190

c) In this case we consider p=0.19 (Probability that X exceeds 1)

In this experiment Y is the number of hours and n= 5 hours.

Then, we check the probability in each hour:

P(Y>1)=1- P(Y=0)

P(Y=0)=\frac{5!}{0!(5-0)!} *(0.19)^{0}*(1-0.19)^{(5-0)}=0.349

P(Y>1)=1-0.349=0.651
