We can solve this problem using the binomial distribution. A binomial distribution<span> can be thought of as a success or failure outcome in an experiment or survey that is repeated multiple times. 
</span>Probability function of binomial distribution has the following form:
P= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}
p represents the probability of each choice we want. k is the number of choices we want and n is the total number of choices.
In our case p=0.85, k=5 and n=6. 
We can now calculate the answer:
P= \frac{6!}{5!(6-5)!} 0.85^5(1-0.85)^{6-5}=0.39
The probability is 39%.

Factor completely 3x(x + 2) + 4(x + 2). (1 point) (x + 2)(7x)
Nezavi [6.7K]

ANSWER

(x + 2)(3x + 4)

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

3x(x + 2) + 4(x + 2)

We can see that (x+2) is the greatest common factor.

We factor to obtain;

(x + 2)( 3x + 4)

The correct choice is C.

A parabola has its focus at (1,2) and its directrix is y=-2. the equation of this parabola could be
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
<span>x^2/8 - x/4 + 1/8 = 0 A parabola is defined as the set of all points such that each point has the same distance from the focus and the directrix. Also the parabola's equation will be a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c. So if we can determine 3 points on the parabola, we can use those points to calculate the desired equation. First, let's draw the shortest possible line from the focus to the directrix. The midpoint of that line will be a point on the desired parabola. Since the slope of the directrix is 0, the line will have the equation of x=1. This line segment will be from (1,2) to (1,-2) and the midpoint will be ((1+1)/2, (2 + -2)/2) = (2/2, 0/2) = (1,0). Now for the 2nd point, let's draw a line that's parallel to the directrix and passing through the focus. The equation of that line will be y=2. Any point on that line will have a distance of 4 from the directrix. So let's give it an x-coordinate value of (1+4) = 5. So another point for the parabola is (5,2). And finally, if we subtract 4 instead of adding 4 to the x coordinate, we can get a third point of 1-4 = -3. So that 3rd point is (-3,2). So we now have 3 points on the parabola. They are (1,0), (5,2), and (-3,2). Let's create some equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = y and then substitute the known values into those equations. SO ax^2 + bx + c = y (1) a*1^2 + b*1 + c = 0 (2) a*5^2 + b*5 + c = 2 (3) a*(-3)^2 + b*(-3) + c = 2 Let's do the multiplication for those expressions. So (4) a + b + c = 0 (5) 25a + 5b + c = 2 (6) 9a - 3b + c = 2 Equations (5) and (6) above look interesting. Let's subtract (6) from (5). So 25a + 5b + c = 2 - 9a - 3b + c = 2 = 16a + 8b = 0 Now let's express a in terms of b. 16a + 8b = 0 16a = -8b a = -8b/16 (7) a = -b/2 Now let's substitute the value (-b/2) for a in expression (4) above. So a + b + c = 0 -b/2 + b + c = 0 And solve for c -b/2 + b + c = 0 b/2 + c = 0 (8) c = -b/2 So we know that a = -b/2 and c = -b/2. Let's substitute those values for a and c in equation (5) above and solve for b. 25a + 5b + c = 2 25(-b/2) + 5b - b/2 = 2 -25b/2 + 5b - b/2 = 2 2(-25b/2 + 5b - b/2) = 2*2 -25b + 10b - b = 4 -16b = 4 b = -4/16 b = -1/4 So we now know that b = -1/4. Using equations (7) and (8) above, let's calculate a and c. a = -b/2 = -(-1/4)/2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8 c = -b/2 = -(-1/4)/2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8 So both a and c are 1/8. So the equation for the parabola is x^2/8 - x/4 + 1/8 = 0 Let's test to make sure it works. First, let's use an x of 1. x^2/8 - x/4 + 1/8 = y 1^2/8 - 1/4 + 1/8 = y 1/8 - 1/4 + 1/8 = y 1/8 - 2/8 + 1/8 = y 0 = y And we get 0 as expected. Let's try x = 2 x^2/8 - x/4 + 1/8 = y 2^2/8 - 2/4 + 1/8 = y 4/8 - 1/2 + 1/8 = y 4/8 - 1/2 + 1/8 = y 1/2 - 1/2 + 1/8 = y 1/8 = y. Let's test if (2,1/8) is the same distance from both the focus and the directrix. The distance from the directrix is 1/8 - (-2) = 1/8 + 2 = 1/8 + 16/8 = 17/8 The distance from the focus is d = sqrt((2-1)^2 + (1/8-2)^2) d = sqrt(1^2 + -15/8^2) d = sqrt(1 + 225/64) d = sqrt(289/64) d = 17/8 And the distances match again. So we do have the correct equation of: x^2/8 - x/4 + 1/8 = 0</span>

Answer the photo below thanks <br> Question: What is the value of x in the diagram.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

A. X = 30º

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle labeled x & the right angle are vertical angles to the one labeled 120º.

Therefore:

X + 90 = 120

Solve for x:

X + (90-90) = 120 - 90

X = 30

Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Given that LM and LN are tangent to the circle and that the measure of angle MLN = 75.86, find the measure of arc MN.
siniylev [52]

we know that

The measure of the external angle is the semidifference of the arcs that it covers

so

∠MLN=(1/2)*(mayor arc MN-minor arc MN)

Let

x------> minor arc MN

major arc MN=360-x

substitute in the formula above

∠MLN=(1/2)*(mayor arc MN-minor arc MN)

75.86=(1/2)*(360-x-x)------> 151.72=(360-2x)------>360-151.72=2x

x=104.14°

therefore

the answer is

the measure of arc MN (minor arc) is 104.14°
