<span>The distance poles B and D= (1-1/5)=4/5 yard

</span>The distance poles B and E= BD+DE=4/5+7/10=(8+7)/10=15/10=3/2 yard

the answer is 3/2 yard (distance poles B and E)

Point \blue{A}Astart color blue, A, end color blue is at \blue{(-4, 8)}(−4,8)start color blue, left parenthesis, minus, 4, comma
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of point B are (6,7).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are

Blue = A(-4,8)

Purple = M(1,7.5)

Green = B

It is given that point M is the midpoint of point A and B.

Let coordinates of points are (a,b).

Midpoint of two points is

Midpoint=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})

M=(\dfrac{-4+a}{2},\dfrac{8+b}{2})

Coordinates of midpoint are (1,7.5).

(1,7.5)=(\dfrac{-4+a}{2},\dfrac{8+b}{2})

On comparing both sides we get

1=\dfrac{-4+a}{2}\Rightarrow 2=-4+a\Rightarrow a=6

7.5=\dfrac{8+b}{2}\Rightarrow 15=8+b\Rightarrow b=7

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (6,7).

According to the document Current Population Survey, published by the U.S. Census Bureau, 30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or o
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or older have a high school degree as their highest educational level.

This means that p = 0.304

100 such adults

This means that n = 100

Determine the probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is a. Exactly 32

This is P(X = 32).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 32) = C_{100,32}.(0.304)^{32}.(0.696)^{68} = 0.0803

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.
