PLS HELP Round the square root of 426 to the nearest thousandth

Mathematics

1 answer:

Arada [10]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

20.640

Step-by-step explanation:

√426 ≈ 20.6397674406

The digit in the ten-thousandths place (bold) is more than 4 so 1 needs to be added to the thousandths place to round the number. Then, 39 thousandths becomes 40 thousandths, and the rounded number is ...

... 20.640

_____

Since you are asked to round to thousandths, you must show the thousandths digit of the rounded number, even though it is zero. This identifies the number as having precision to thousandths, even though it can be expressed using only hundredths.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

a) Let the random variable X= "number of these tracks where SBIRS detects the object." in order to use the binomial probability distribution we need to satisfy some conditions:

1) Independence between the trials (satisfied)

2) A value of n fixed , for this case is 20 (satisfied)

3) Probability of success p =0.2 fixed (Satisfied)

So then we have all the conditions and we can assume that:

$X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)$

b) $X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)$

c) $P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456$

d) $P(X \geq 15) = P(X=15)+ .....+P(X=20)$

$P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456$

$P(X=16)=(20C16)(0.8)^{16} (1-0.8)^{20-16}=0.218$

$P(X=17)=(20C17)(0.8)^{17} (1-0.8)^{20-17}=0.205$

$P(X=18)=(20C18)(0.8)^{18} (1-0.8)^{20-18}=0.137$

$P(X=19)=(20C19)(0.8)^{19} (1-0.8)^{20-19}=0.058$

$P(X=20)=(20C20)(0.8)^{20} (1-0.8)^{20-20}=0.012$

$P(X\geq 15)=0.804208$

e) $E(X) = np = 20*0.8 = 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

Part a

Let the random variable X= "number of these tracks where SBIRS detects the object." in order to use the binomial probability distribution we need to satisfy some conditions:

1) Independence between the trials (satisfied)

2) A value of n fixed , for this case is 20 (satisfied)

3) Probability of success p =0.2 fixed (Satisfied)

So then we have all the conditions and we can assume that:

$X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)$

Part b

$X \sim Bin(n =20, p=0.8)$

Part c

For this case we just need to replace into the mass function and we got:

$P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456$

Part d

For this case we want this probability: $P(X\geq 15)$

And we can solve this using the complement rule:

$P(X \geq 15) = P(X=15)+ .....+P(X=20)$

$P(X=15)=(20C15)(0.8)^{15} (1-0.8)^{20-15}=0.17456$

$P(X=16)=(20C16)(0.8)^{16} (1-0.8)^{20-16}=0.218$

$P(X=17)=(20C17)(0.8)^{17} (1-0.8)^{20-17}=0.205$

$P(X=18)=(20C18)(0.8)^{18} (1-0.8)^{20-18}=0.137$

$P(X=19)=(20C19)(0.8)^{19} (1-0.8)^{20-19}=0.058$

$P(X=20)=(20C20)(0.8)^{20} (1-0.8)^{20-20}=0.012$

$P(X\geq 15)=0.804208$

Part e

The expected value is given by:

$E(X) = np = 20*0.8 = 16$

What is 7.26451 correct to 3 decimal places ?

Zina [86]

Answer:

7.625

Step-by-step explanation:

This would be written like this bc to 3 decimal places its 5.You then round 4 up to 5,because the third decimal place is higher than 4.

To buy a car, you borrow $25,000 with a term of three years at an APR of 6.5%. What is your monthly

Finger [1]

Answer:

$766.23

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization formula is appropriate for this. (Better, use a financial calculator or spreadsheet.)

A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^-(12t))

where P is the amount borrowed (25,000), r is the annual rate (0.065), and t is the number of years (3).

Putting the given numbers into the formula, we have ...

A = $25,000(0.065/12)/(1 -(1 +0.065/12)^(-36))

A = $25,000(.00541667)/(1 -1.00541667^-36)

A = $25,000(0.00541667)/(0.1767322)

A = $766.23

The monthly payment is $766.23.

<em>Comment on tools</em>

A graphing or scientific calculator is useful for these. Something like a TI-84, or any of the equivalents, will have financial calculations like this built in. There are also numerous apps available for phone or tablet that will do financial calculations.
