Answer:

Area of cross-section is 9\pi in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cone and a plane parallel to base intersect the cone at the mid point of points between A and B.

We have to find the area of cross-section formed by intersection of the plane and the cone which is a new circle formed.

Given,   height=20 in

             radius=6 in

By mid point theorem i.e the line segment formed by joining the mid points of two side of triangle is parallel to third equal to half of the third side.

therefore new circle formed is of radius 3 in

Hence, area of cross-section formed by intersection of the plane and the cone which is a new circle formed= \pir^{2}

                                                        = 3^{2}\pi

                                                        = 9\piin^{2}

Given that point of intersection is at halft ot the heigth, by similarity of triangles, the radius is halft of 6 in, i.e 3 in.

The the area is Pi*r^2 = Pi*(3in)^2 = Pi*9 in^2 = 9Piin^2

This is option C)

Timmy estimated he would spend $9 at the candy store. He went a little over-budget and spent $12. What was the percent error?
kap26 [50]
<h2>Answer :</h2>

  • Error (e) = 12 - 9 = $ 3

  • assumed value (a) = $ 9

\boxed{ \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{error}{assumed \: value} \times 100}}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error =\dfrac{3}{9} ×100}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error = \dfrac{1}{3} ×100}

  • \mathrm{ \% \: error = 33.33 \%}

Conditional Distribution, Marginal Distribution, Joint Distribution. <br> What’s the difference?
lutik1710 [3]

Explanation:

Marginal distribution: This distribution gives the probability for each possible value of the Random variable ignoring other random variables. Basically, the values of other variables is not considered in the marginal distribution, they can be any value possible. For example, if you have two variables X and Y, the probability of X being equal to a value, lets say, 4, contemplates every possible scenario where X is equal to 4, independently of the value Y has taken. If you want the probability of a dice being a multiple of 3, you are interested that the dice is either 3 or 6, but you dont care if the dice is even or odd.

Conditional distribution: This distribution contrasts from the previous one in the sense that we are restricting the universe of events to specific condition for other variable, making a modification of our marginal results. If we know that throwing a dice will give us a result higher than 2, then to in order to calculate the probability of the dice being a multiple of 3 using that condition, we have two favourable cases (3 and 6) from 4 total possible results (3,4,5 and 6) discarding the impossible values (1 and 2) from this universe since they dont match the condition given (note that the restrictions given can also reduce the total of favourable cases).

The joint distribution calculates the probabilities for two different events (related to two different random variables) occuring simultaneously. If we want to calculate the joint probability of a dice being multiple of 3 and greater than 2 at the same time, our possible cases in this case are 3 and 6 from 6 possible results. We are not discarding 1 or 2 as possible results because we are not assuming, that the dice is greater than 2, that is another condition that we should met in the combination of events.

How would you write 4n + 3 as a verbal expression
Tatiana [17]
<h3>4 times a number increased by 3.</h3>

When we have a number that appears

right before a variable, it means multiplication.

So 4n means the same thing as 4 times a number.

Remember, n is a variable which is just a

letter that represents any number.

Since we are adding 3 to 4n, we can say

4 times a number increased by 3.

So 4n + 3 can be written as 4 times a number increased by 3.
