ANSWER

45.6cm to the nearest tenth.

EXPLANATION

The diagonal of the rectangular painting is 62cm.

The height of the painting is 42 cm.

The height of the painting h , the diagonal, and the width of the painting forms a right triangle with the diagonal being the hypotenuse.

From the Pythagoras Theorem,

{w}^{2}  +  {42}^{2}  = {62}^{2}

{w}^{2} = {62}^{2} -  {42}^{2}

{w}^{2}  = 2080

{w} =  \sqrt{2080}

w = 4 \sqrt{130}

The width of the painting is 45.6cm to the nearest tenth.

VMariaS [17]

Answer: 23 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 4 groups with 5 people each and all of them ordered a cup of hot chocolate:

= 4 * 5

= 20 cups

Rebecca, Malaki, and Jeffrey each ordered an extra cup of hot chocolate so that's 3 extra cups:

= 20 + 3

= 23 cups

A complex electronic system is built with a certain number of backup components in its subsystems. One subsystem has four identi
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a. 0.1536

b. 0.9728

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a component fails, P(Y) = 0.2

The number of components in the system = 4

The number of components required for the subsystem to operate = 2

a. By binomial theorem, we have;

The probability that exactly 2 last longer than 1,000 hours, P(Y = 2) is given as follows;

P(Y = 2) = \dbinom{4}{2} × 0.2² × 0.8² = 0.1536

The probability that exactly 2 last longer than 1,000 hours, P(Y = 2) = 0.1536

b. The probability that the system last longer than 1,000 hours, P(O) = The probability that no component fails + The probability that only one component fails + The probability that two component fails leaving two working

Therefore, we have;

P(O) = P(Y = 0) + P(Y = 1) + P(Y = 2)

P(Y = 0) = \dbinom{4}{0} × 0.2⁰ × 0.8⁴ = 0.4096

P(Y = 1) = \dbinom{4}{1} × 0.2¹ × 0.8³ = 0.4096

P(Y = 2) = \dbinom{4}{2} × 0.2² × 0.8² = 0.1536

∴ P(O) = 0.4096 + 0.4096 + 0.1536 = 0.9728

The probability that the subsystem operates longer than 1,000 hours = 0.9728

The probability of picking two black marbles from a box at random without replacement is 10/91 .
sasho [114]
The probability of the 2 events are multiplied to get the result 10/91

so we have the relation 5/14 *  x  = 10/91

where x is the probability of drawing the second black

so x =  10/91 * 14/5 =  4/13   answer
