Answer:

$(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You have two methods to expand this binomial.

Method 1

If you have the expression:

$(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2}$

You can write the expression it in the following way:

$(x-\frac{2}{5})^{2}=(x-\frac{2}{5})(x-\frac{2}{5})$

Then, apply the distributive property:

$(x-\frac{2}{5})(x-\frac{2}{5}) = x^2 -\frac{2}{5}x -\frac{2}{5}x+ (\frac{2}{5})\frac{2}{5}$

Simplify the expression:

$(x-\frac{2}{5})^2= x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x+ (\frac{4}{25})$

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Method 2

For any expression of the form:

$(a-b)^2$

Its expanded form will be:

$(a-b)^2= a^2 -2ab + b^2$

If

$a = x$

$b =\frac{2}{5}$

$(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 - 2x\frac{2}{5} + (\frac{2}{5})^2$

$(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{25}$

Khianna is trying to help her neighbor Mrs. Johnson design and estimate the cost of a new square patio to be made from 16 inch s

Gnoma [55]

Part I: Scale Drawing

<span>Decide on a scale factor to represent the distance covered by the patio. Then, use the space below to design Mrs. Johnson’s patio to be a square that is at least 8 feet on each side.</span>

a) Scale Factor: 1 in/ 2 ft

Use a straightedge and a ruler to draw to scale a design for Mrs. Johnson’s patio

b) see the picture attached

Mrs. Johnson’s patio to be a square that is 10 ft x 10 ft

<span><span>c) What are the dimensions of Mrs. Johnson’s patio? </span>
</span>the dimensions of Mrs. Johnson’s patio are 10 ft x 10 ft

<span><span>d) Calculate the area of Mrs. Johnson’s patio. Show all work.
</span> </span>
area of the square=b²
where b is the length side of the square
b=10 ft
so
Area=10²-----> area =100 ft²

<span><span>e) How many pavers will be needed? Show all work. </span>
</span>
we know that
1 paver is 16 in x 16 in dimensions
convert to ft
1 ft----------->12 in
x ft-----------> 16 in
x=16/12-----> x=4/3 ft
so
1 paver is (4/3) ft x (4/3) ft dimensions

area of one paver=(4/3)²----> 16/9 ft²

if one paver has an area of----------------> 16/9 ft²
x pavers-----------------------> 100 ft²
x=100/(16/9)------> x=100*9/16-----> x=56.25 pavers

if one box --------------> 12 pavers
x box---------> 56.25 pavers
x=56.25/12-----> x=4.68 box-------> x=5 boxes
5 boxes of pavers will be needed

<span><span>f) What will it cost to build the patio? Show all work.
</span> </span>
the cost of one box is--------> $99.99
5 boxes-----------> x
x=5*$99.99------>x=$499.95

the cost to build the patio is $499.95

Part II: Bigger Design

<span>There is a saying that bigger is better, so why not double the dimensions of Mrs. Johnson’s patio to make the side measurement twice as big? Mrs. Johnson and I think that it would better meet her needs. After seeing the original estimation, she thinks that she could afford to double the size. I explained that making the patio twice as big would mean twice the cost. Mrs. Johnson says, “Let’s do it!”</span>

<span>a) What would be the new dimensions of Mrs. Johnson’s patio?
</span>the new dimensions of Mrs. Johnson’s patio are 20 ft x 20 ft

<span>b) Calculate the new area of Mrs. Johnson’s patio. Show all work.
</span>area of the square=b²
where b is the length side of the square
b=20 ft
so
Area=20²-----> area =400 ft²<span>
</span>
<span><span>c) How many pavers will be needed for the new design? Show all work.
</span> </span>
1 paver is (4/3) ft x (4/3) ft dimensions

area of one paver=(4/3)²----> 16/9 ft²

if one paver has an area of----------------> 16/9 ft²
x pavers-----------------------> 400 ft²
x=400/(16/9)------> x=400*9/16-----> x=225 pavers

if one box --------------> 12 pavers
x box---------> 225 pavers
x=225/12-----> x=18.75 box-------> x=19 boxes
19 boxes of pavers will be needed

<span>d) What will it cost to build the bigger patio? Show all work.
</span>the cost of one box is--------> $99.99
19 boxes-----------> x
x=19*$99.99------>x=$1899.81
the cost to build the bigger patio is $1899.81

<span><span>e) Is Khianna right? Will doubling the size of the patio, double the cost?</span>
</span>
<span>Khianna is wrong to double the dimensions the cost quadruples</span>

32% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program. You randomly select 10 college students and a

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

a) $P(X=2)=(10C2)(0.32)^2 (1-0.32)^{10-2}=0.211$

b) $P(X> 2)=1-P(X\leq 2)=1-[0.0211+0.0995+0.211]=0.668$

c) $P(2 \leq x \leq 5)=0.211+0.264+0.218+0.123=0.816$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.32)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

Part a

$P(X=2)=(10C2)(0.32)^2 (1-0.32)^{10-2}=0.211$

Part b

$P(X> 2)=1-P(X\leq 2)=1-[P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)]$

$P(X=0)=(10C0)(0.32)^0 (1-0.32)^{10-0}=0.0211$

$P(X=1)=(10C1)(0.32)^1 (1-0.32)^{10-1}=0.0995$

$P(X=2)=(10C2)(0.32)^2 (1-0.32)^{10-2}=0.211$

$P(X> 2)=1-P(X\leq 2)=1-[0.0211+0.0995+0.211]=0.668$

Part c

$P(2 \leq x \leq 5)=P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)$

$P(X=2)=(10C2)(0.32)^2 (1-0.32)^{10-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(10C3)(0.32)^3 (1-0.32)^{10-3}=0.264$

$P(X=4)=(10C4)(0.32)^4 (1-0.32)^{10-4}=0.218$

$P(X=5)=(10C5)(0.32)^5 (1-0.32)^{10-5}=0.123$

$P(2 \leq x \leq 5)=0.211+0.264+0.218+0.123=0.816$
