The area of a <span>isosceles triangle:
S=(bh)/2, where b is for base (=4) and h is for height (=x+3)
We get the equation:
10=(4*(x+3))/2
10=(4x+12)/2
4x+12=20
4x=8
x=2

A film distribution manager calculates that 4% of the films released are flops. If the manager is correct, what is the probabili
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

9.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 4%, or 0.04

n = Sample size = 667

u = Expected value = n * p = 667 * 0.04 = 26.68

SD = Standard deviation = \sqrt{np(1-p)}  =\sqrt{667*0.04*(1-0.04)} = 5.06

Now, the question is if the manager is correct, what is the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 667 released films would be greater than 5%?

This statement implies that the p-vlaue of Z when X = 5% * 667 = 33.35

Since,

Z = (X - u) / SD

We have;

Z = (33.35 - 26.68) / 5.06

Z = 1.32

From the Z-table, the p-value of 1.32 is 0.9066

1 - 0.9066 = 0.0934, or 9.34%

Therefore, the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 667 released films would be greater than 5% is 9.34%.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

6 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its original position to a new position. If an object is transformed, all the point making the object is also transformed. There are four different transformations: Reflection, dilation, translation and rotation.

If y = f(x), y = f(x) + k is a translation k units up if k > 0 and is a translation k units down if k < 0

Given that the parent function is an absolute value represented by:

y = |x|

Therefore comparing y = |xl - 6 with y = f(x) + k, k < 0, therefore this is a translation of 6 units down

what number, when added to the numerator and to the denominator of $\frac{5}{8}$, results in a fraction whose value is 0.4?
luda_lava [24]

The required number is -3 which when added to the numerator and to the denominator of 5/8 results in a fraction whose value is 0.4.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

Fraction is the ratio of a particular part to the whole parts of an object. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given fraction is 5/8

Consider a number as 'x' which is added to both the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction.

So,

(5 + x)/(8 + x)

Since it is given that the result is 0.4 i.e., 4/10, we can write

(5 + x)/(8 + x) = 4/10

⇒ 10(5 + x) = 4(8 + x)

⇒ 50 + 10x = 32 + 4x

⇒ 10x - 4x = 32 - 50

⇒ 6x = -18

⇒ x = -18/6

∴ x = -3

Therefore, the required number is -3.

Check:

(5 + (-3))/(8 + (-3)) = (5 - 3)/(8 - 3) = 2/5 = 0.4

Find the roots. 2x ^2 + 4x - 5 =0

Literally the roots equal 0. Is that “X” or the multiplication sign? Because I did it with “X” and it gave me “0”
