We have that
<span>x + y = 21
3y + x = 19

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the solution is the point (22,-1)

the answer is
the value of x is 22

939/10,000 the decimal place indicates the fraction. You would love the decimal over 4 spaces which is the ten thousands place so that is what you set 939 over!

Emma is making a scale drawing of her farm using the scale 1 cm = 2.5 ft. In the drawing, she drew a well with a diameter of 0.5

xz_007 [3.2K]

1cm = 2.5 ft
0.5 cm = 1.25 ft

Circumference = πD
Circumference = π(1.25)
Circumference = 3.93 ft

The side length of the base of a square pyramid is 30 centimeters. The height of the pyramid is 45 centimeters.

puteri [66]

Answer:

volume = 13500 $cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given pyramid, its volume can be determined by:

volume of pyramid = $\frac{lwh}{3}$

Where: l is the base length, w is the base width and h id the height of the pyramid.

For the given question, l 30 cm, w = 30 cm and h = 45 cm.

So that,

volume = $\frac{30*30*45}{3}$

= $\frac{40500}{3}$

= 13500

volume = 13500 $cm^{3}$

The volume of the pyramid is 13500 $cm^{3}$ .

Consider writing onto a computer disk and then sending it through a certifier that counts the number of missing pulses. Suppose

Furkat [3]

Answer:

a) 0.164 = 16.4% probability that a disk has exactly one missing pulse

b) 0.017 = 1.7% probability that a disk has at least two missing pulses

c) 0.671 = 67.1% probability that neither contains a missing pulse

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the Poisson distribution and the binomial distribution(for item c).

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}
$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

$
e = 2.71828$ is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval.

Binomial 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.

Poisson mean:

$\mu = 0.2$

a. What is the probability that a disk has exactly one missing pulse?

One disk, so Poisson.

This is P(X = 1).

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-0.2}*0.2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.164
$

0.164 = 16.4% probability that a disk has exactly one missing pulse

b. What is the probability that a disk has at least two missing pulses?

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

In which

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}
$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.2}*0.2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.819$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-0.2}*0.2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.164
$

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.819 + 0.164 = 0.983$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.983 = 0.017$

0.017 = 1.7% probability that a disk has at least two missing pulses

c. If two disks are independently selected, what is the probability that neither contains a missing pulse?

Two disks, so binomial with n = 2.

A disk has a 0.819 probability of containing no missing pulse, and a 1 - 0.819 = 0.181 probability of containing a missing pulse, so $p = 0.181$

We want to find P(X = 0).

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.181)^{0}.(0.819)^{2} = 0.671$

0.671 = 67.1% probability that neither contains a missing pulse
