About 12% of individuals write with their left hands. If a class of 130 students meets in a classroom with 130 individual desks,

Answer:

0.1019

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability, p=12%=0.12

Sample size, n=130 students

Those writing with left=14 students

Using the formula for binomial distribution

P(X≤x)=\left[\begin{array}{}n\\x\end{array}\right]p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}

Substituting 0.12 for p, 130 for n, 14 for x we obtain

P(X≤x)=\left[\begin{array}{}130\\14\end{array}\right]0.12^{14}(1-0.12)^{130-14}

P(X≤x)=130C14*0.12^{14}(0.88)^{116}

P(X≤x)=0.1019

John invests $200 at 4.5% compounded annually. About how long will it take for John’s investment to double in value?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The number of years needed is 15.75 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The investment amount (present value) = $200

Interest rate =4.5%

Double of investment = $400

Now we have to find the time or number of years in which the investment amount will be doubled. So, just use the below formula to find the number of years.

Future value = present value ×(1+interest rate)^n

400 = 200×(1+4.5%)^n

N = 15.75 years

The number of years required to double the amount is 15.75 years.

A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The combined weight of a large box and a small box is 85
insens350 [35]
First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables:   Let x = number of large boxes        y = number of small boxes   "There are 115 boxes in all"    means    x + y = 115      [eq1] Now, the pounds for each kind of box is:     (pounds per box)*(number of boxes) So,   pounds for large boxes     +    pounds for small boxes      =    4125 pounds                  "the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes"          (50)*(x)                   +              (25)*(y)                  = 4125    [eq2] It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables. Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2.  Let's solve for x:    x = 115 - y          [from eq1]      50(115-y) + 25y = 4125             [from eq2]      5750 - 50y  + 25y = 4125           [distribute]      5750 - 25y = 4125       -25y = -1625          y = 65             [divide both sides by (-25)]   There are 65 small boxes. Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:   x = 115 - y   x = 115 - 65   x = 50    There are 50 large boxes.

What is the volume of the box pictured below?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The volume of the box is 3/4 cubic meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that volume = length * width * height. We have length, width, and height already, so all we have to do is multiply.

5/6 * 1 1/8 * 4/5. First we convert 1 1/8 from a mixed fraction, to give us 9/8, as 8/8 = 1.

5/6 * 9/8 * 4/5. 5 * 9 = 45, and 6 * 8 = 48. 45/48 reduces to 15/16.

15/16 * 4/5. 15 * 4 = 60, and 16 * 5 = 80. 60/80 reduces to 6/8, which reduces to 3/4.

Me ajudem com a 3º questão
Alisiya [41]

I can't read that language but I'll guess it says write a second degree equation then solve for n when d=10.

10 = \dfrac{n(n-3)}{2}

20 = n^2 - 3n

n^2 - 3n - 20 = 0

Answer: n² - 3n - 20 = 0

That doesn't factor so there is no integer n solution.

That means there are no polygons with 10 diagonals.

n = \frac 1 2(3 \pm \sqrt{89})
