Answer: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula :-

P(x)=^nC_x\ p^x(q)^{n-x}, where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , n is the total trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

Given : The probability that the adults follow more than one game = 0.30

Then , q= 1-p = 1-0.30=0.70

The number of adults surveyed : n= 15

Let X be represents the adults who follow more than one sport.

Then , the probability that fewer than 4 of them will say that football is their favorite sport,

P(X\leq4)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)+P(x=4)\\\\=^{15}C_{0}\ (0.30)^0(0.70)^{15}+^{15}C_{1}\ (0.30)^1(0.70)^{14}+^{15}C_{2}\ (0.30)^2(0.70)^{13}+^{15}C_{3}\ (0.30)^3(0.70)^{12}+^{15}C_{4}\ (0.30)^4(0.70)^{11}\\\\=(0.30)^0(0.70)^{15}+15(0.30)^1(0.70)^{14}+105(0.30)^2(0.70)^{13}+455(0.30)^3(0.70)^{12}+1365(0.30)^4(0.70)^{11}\\\\=0.515491059227\approx0.5

Hence, the probability rounded to the nearest tenth that fewer than 4 of them will say that football is their favorite sport =0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

By the characteristics of a quadrilateral given in the question,

1). All four sides are congruent.

It may be Square, Rhombus

2). Both the pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

It may be Parallelogram, Rhombus.

3). Diagonals are perpendicular.

It may be Rhombus, Rectangle, Square.

Since all three characteristics define the properties of a Rhombus,

The given quadrilateral matches with a rhombus.

Therefore, Option (A) will be the answer.

Suppose that a particle following the given path c(t) flies off on a tangent at t = t0. Compute the position of the particle at
Svetach [21]

Answer:

(30,35,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

C(t)=(2t^2,t^3-4t,0)

t_0=3,t_1=4

The velocity of particle,v(t)=c'(t)=(4t,3t^2-4,0)

Substitute t_0=3

C(3)=(2(3)^2,(3)^3-4(3),0))=(18,15,0)

v(3)=(4(3),3(3)^2-4,0)=(12,23,0)

The tangent line at t=3 is given by

l(t)=c(2)+(t-3)v(3)=(18,15,0)+(t-3)(12,23,0)

Now, substitute t=4

l(4)=(18,15,0)+(4-3)+(12,23,0)=(18,12,0)+(12,23,0)

l(4)=(30,35,0)

Hence, the position of particle  at t_1=4=(30,35,0)
