1 answer:

5 0

$x=8.\overline{54}\\
100=854.\overline{54}\\
100x-x=854.\overline{54}-8.\overline{54}\\
99x=846\\
x=\dfrac{846}{99}=\dfrac{94}{11}

Let the height of the rectangle = h

2b + 2h = 100

2(38) + 2h = 100

2h = 100 - 76

h = 12mm

area of rectangle = base x height

= 38 x 12

= 456mm²

Let the probability of success on a Bernoulli trial be 0.26. a. In five Bernoulli trials, what is the probability that there wil

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence of Bernoulli trials forms the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

Let the probability of success on a Bernoulli trial be 0.26.

This means that $p = 0.26$

a. In five Bernoulli trials, what is the probability that there will be 4 failures?

Five trials means that $n = 5$

4 failures, so 1 success, and we have to find P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.26)^{1}.(0.74)^{4} = 0.3898$

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures

Use the figure below to answer the questions.

Archy [21]

Answer:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The name of the 3D shape is Prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The surface area of the figure is 144 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The 3D shape has two congruent and parallel faces (triangles) and the other faces are parallelograms, then the 3D shape is a prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total Surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

where:

Area of the base of the prism: Ab

Perimeter of the base: Pb

Height of the prism: h

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The base of the prism is a triangle. Then to calculate the area of the base, we must use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle:

$A_{b}=\frac{bh}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{(4 cm)(3 cm)}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{12cm^{2} }{2}\\ A_{b}=6cm^{2}$

The perimeter of the base is the perimeter of the triangle, equal to the sum of the sides of the triangle:

$P_{b}=4cm+3cm+5cm\\ P_{b}=12cm$

h: Height of the prism is the distance between the bases of the prism (the triangle), then h=11 cm

Then, replacing in the formula the known values:

$S=2(6 cm^{2})+(12 cm)(11 cm)\\ S=12 cm^{2}+132 cm^{2}\\ S=144 cm^{2}$
