Answer:
Option C: 0.28
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial probability distribution problem.
Now, we want to find the probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed. This is written as;
P(X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)
From the histogram;
P(5) = 0.02
P(4) = 0.02
P(3) = 0.05
P(2) = 0.19
Thus;
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.19 + 0.05 + 0.02 + 0.02
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.28
Answer:
We need some form of question other then Determine the value of X.... or equation
Answer:
8 boards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since he bought a few of each length. The only combination that works is when he bought 5 of the 4 ft long board so 4×5=20. Than he bought 3 of the 5ft boards 3×5=15. 20+15=35 ft worth of boards.
Answer:
Fraction of the original board left = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the board is = l feet
Marty saws off
of a wooden board.
Length of the board left = l - 
=
feet
He saws off
of the remaining board,
Board left = ![(\frac{4}{5})l-[(\frac{4}{5})l\times (\frac{3}{4})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B5%7D%29l-%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B5%7D%29l%5Ctimes%20%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%29%5D)
= 
=
feet
He finally saws off
rd of the remaining board.
Board left = ![\frac{1}{5}l-[\frac{1}{5}\times \frac{1}{3}]l](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7Dl-%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5Dl)
= 
=
feet
Fraction of the original board left = 
= 
Answer:
Angles in a triangles add up to 180°
Respectively 1 : 2 : 3 is going to be 1 x , 2 x and 3 x so,
1 x + 2 x + 3 x = 180°
⇒ Simplify
6 x = 180°
⇒ Divide by 6 on both sides to isolate x
x = 30°
Since the ratio was 1 x : 2 x : 3 x and x is 30°,
30 : 60 : 90
And since there is a 90° angle, it is a right - angled triangle
