What is the length of the diagonal for the given rectangular prism to the nearest whole unit?

1 answer:

6 0

Length of the diagonal : D. 12 cm

The space diagonal of a rectangular prism is derived using the following formula:

d = √(l² + w² + h²)

l = 6; w = 5; h = 9
d = √6² + 5² + 9²
d = √36 + 25 + 81
d = √142
d = 11.916 ⇒ 12 cm

slant height of the given pyramid :

l = slant height
h = height
a = base radius

l = √h² + a²

i'm assuming that the pyramid base is also the base radius
l = √8² + 12²
l = √64 + 144
l = √208
I = 14.42 ⇒ 14cm

in the event that the pyramid base is not the radius, then 12/2; 6cm
l = √8² + 6²
l = √64 + 36
l = √100
l = 10 cm

For X a binomial random variable with n=5 and p=1/4, answer the following

mash [69]

Recall that for $X\sim\mathrm{Bin}(n,p)$ , i.e. a random variable $X$ following a binomial distribution over $n$ trials and with probability parameter $p$ ,

$\mathbb P(X=x)=f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dbinom nx p^x(1-p)^{n-x}&\text{for }x\in\{0,1,\ldots,n\}\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}$

So you have

$\mathbb P(X=2)=\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^2\left(1-\dfrac34\right)^{5-2}=\dfrac{135}{512}\approx0.26$

$\mathbb P(2\le X\le4)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=2}^4\mathbb P(X=x)$
$=\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^2\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-2}+\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^3\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-3}+\dbinom52\left(\dfrac14\right)^4\left(1-\dfrac14\right)^{5-4}$
$=\dfrac{375}{1024}\approx0.37$

The expected value of $X\sim\mathrm{Bin}(n,p)$ is simply $np$ , while the standard deviation is $\sqrt{np(1-p)}$ . In this case, they are $\dfrac54=1.25$ and $\sqrt{\dfrac{15}{16}}\approx0.97$ , respectively.

A tree is 58 inches tall. how tall is it in feet and inches

mart [117]

A foot is 12 inches.
12 can go into 58 evenly 4 times, since 12• 4 equals 48 but 12 • 5 equals 60. This means that the tree is at least 4 feet. Then to find the leftover inches we do 58-48 equals 10, therefore the answer is 58 inches translates to 4 feet and 10 inches.

The sum of two numbers is 6565. the larger number is fivefive more than threethree times the smaller number. find the two number

Nimfa-mama [501]

~You would set up the equation x+(3x+5)=6565
~Combine like products so 3x+x=4x.
~Now you have 4x+5=6565.
~Isolate the variable by subracting the 5 from both sides, so you have 4x=6560.
~Since you multiply x by 4, divide both sides by 4, and 6560 divided by 4 is 1,640.
*The first number is 1,640.
~Now to find the second number you simply plug in 1,640 to (3x+5), with 1,640 being x.
~That would become [3(1,640)+5].
~3 times 1, 640 is 4,920, and add the 5 so you get 4,925.
*The second and larger number is 4,925.
If you wanna check just add the two numbers, and you get 6565.
