Answer:

x=100

Step-by-step explanation:

39.99+0.45x=44.99+0.4x

0.45x=5+0.4x

0.05x=5

x=100

A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the two legs are equal in length. Ho

vagabundo [1.1K]

This is a classic example of a 45-45-90 triangle: it's a right triangle (one angle of 90) & two other sides of the same length, which means two angles of the same length (and 45 is the only number that will work). With a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are easy to determine:
45-45-90
1-1-sqrt2
Where the hypotenuse corresponds to sqrt2.
Now, your hypotenuse is 10.
To figure out what each leg is, divide 10/sqrt2 (because sqrt2/sqrt2 = 1, which is a leg length in the explanation above).
Problem: you can't divide by radicals. So, we'll have to rationalize the denominator:
(10•sqrt2)/(sqrt2•sqrt2)
This can be rewritten:
10sqrt2/sqrt(2•2)
=10sqrt2/sqrt4
=10sqrt2/2
=5sqrt2 Hope this helps!!

The probability that your call to a service line is answered in less than 30 seconds is 0.75. Assume that your calls are indepen

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

a) 0.2581

b) 0.4148

c) 17

Step-by-step explanation:

For each call, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are answered in less than 30 seconds. Or they are not. The probabilities for each call are independent. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

In this problem we have that:

$p = 0.75$

a. If you call 12 times, what is the probability that exactly 9 of your calls are answered within 30 seconds? Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654).

This is $P(X = 9)$ when $n = 12$ . So

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

$P(X = 9) = C_{12,9}.(0.75)^{9}.(0.25)^{3} = 0.2581$

b. If you call 20 times, what is the probability that at least 16 calls are answered in less than 30 seconds? Round your answer to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654).

This is $P(X \geq 16)$ when $n = 20$
