When you are talking about similarity between triangles... you are talking about using a proportion. in this case..
1) ABC ~ DEF,
2) 5/7 = 16/x, now we are using the variable X because we don't know the value of DE..
3) Now, you cross multiply... you should get something like ---> 5x=112
4)divide 5 both sides
5) you get X=22.4
so the length of DE is 22.4

A company produces and sells CDs. There is a fixed cost of $2000 and $5 per CD manufactured. The manufacturer sells each CD for
OlgaM077 [116]
Call the production cost 'C', the revenue 'R' and the number of CDs 'n': 

C=2000+5n
R=10n
By definition Profit P = R-C, therefore P=10n-2000+5n = 5n-2000.

An instructor who taught two sections of Math 161A, the first with 20 students and the second with 30 students, gave a midterm e
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

<em>The answers are for option (a) 0.2070  (b)0.3798  (c) 0.3938 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given:</em>

<em>Here Section 1 students = 20 </em>

<em> Section 2 students = 30 </em>

<em> Here there are 15 graded exam papers. </em>

<em> (a )Here Pr(10 are from second section) = ²⁰C₅ * ³⁰C₁₀/⁵⁰C₁₅= 0.2070 </em>

<em> (b) Here if x is the number of students copies of section 2 out of 15 exam papers. </em>

<em>  here the distribution is hyper-geometric one, where N = 50, K = 30 ; n = 15 </em>

<em>Then, </em>

<em> Pr( x ≥ 10 ; 15; 30 ; 50) = 0.3798 </em>

<em> (c) Here we have to find that at least 10 are from the same section that means if x ≥ 10 (at least 10 from section B) or x ≤ 5 (at least 10 from section 1) </em>

<em> so, </em>

<em> Pr(at least 10 of these are from the same section) = Pr(x ≤ 5 or x ≥ 10 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) = Pr(x ≤ 5 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) + Pr(x ≥ 10 ; 15 ; 30 ; 50) = 0.0140 + 0.3798 = 0.3938 </em>

<em> Note : Here the given distribution is Hyper-geometric distribution </em>

<em> where f(x) = kCₓ)(N-K)C(n-x)/ NCK in that way all these above values can be calculated.</em>
