Answer:

31.5 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mel uses all 30 litres of yellow paint, then:

5 / 2 = 30 / x

5x = 60

x = 12

Mel would need 12 litres of blue paint, but she only has 9 litres.  So the amount of yellow paint she needs is:

5 / 2 = x / 9

2x = 45

x = 22.5

Mel will use 22.5 litres of yellow paint with 9 litres of blue paint to make a total of 31.5 litres of green paint.

netineya [11]

Answer:

P(X \geq 5)=1-P(X

We can find the individual probabilities:

P(X=0)=(19C0)(0.3)^0 (1-0.3)^{19-0}=0.00114

P(X=1)=(19C1)(0.3)^1 (1-0.3)^{19-1}=0.0092

P(X=2)=(19C2)(0.3)^2 (1-0.3)^{19-2}=0.0358

P(X=3)=(19C3)(0.3)^3 (1-0.3)^{19-3}=0.0869

P(X=4)=(19C4)(0.3)^4 (1-0.3)^{19-4}=0.1491

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.00114+0.009282+0.0358+0.0869+0.149]= 0.7178

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=19, p=0.3)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

And we want to find this probability:

P(X \geq 5)

And we can use the complement rule:

P(X \geq 5)=1-P(X

We can find the individual probabilities:

P(X=0)=(19C0)(0.3)^0 (1-0.3)^{19-0}=0.00114

P(X=1)=(19C1)(0.3)^1 (1-0.3)^{19-1}=0.0092

P(X=2)=(19C2)(0.3)^2 (1-0.3)^{19-2}=0.0358

P(X=3)=(19C3)(0.3)^3 (1-0.3)^{19-3}=0.0869

P(X=4)=(19C4)(0.3)^4 (1-0.3)^{19-4}=0.1491

And replacing we got:

P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.00114+0.009282+0.0358+0.0869+0.149]= 0.7178

PLEASE HELP
Neko [114]

Answer:

55.5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

so the dog house consists of 4 walls, two roof sections, and two triangle bits to make the roof pointy (I'm sure they have a name but I don't know what it is lol) Of the walls there would be 2 of the longer walls and 2 of the shorther ones. Knowing this we just have to add together the area of each part to find the total surface area.

So starting with the walls:

two of them are 4 feet by 2 feet.

The area of a rectangle is just length x width

so those two would have an area of 8 ft^2

and the other two are 3 feet by 2 feet so they would have an area of 6 ft^2

the roof sections are also rectangles with dimensions of 4 feet by 2.5 feet

4x2.5=10 so each side of the roof has a surface area of 10 ft^2

now the triangle parts have a base of 3 feet and a height of 2.5 feet

the formula for area of a triangle is base x height / 2

3x2.5=7.5

7.5/2= 3.75

now we add them together

8+8+6+6+10+10+3.75+3.75=55.5

so the total surface area is 55.5 square ft

Vaughn Manufacturing has three product lines. Its only unprofitable line is Corn Nuts, the results of which appear below for 201
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: The relevant costs are $18000 in the decision to eliminate this product line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sales = $1530000

Variable expenses = $1040000

Fixed expenses = $600000

Net loss = $110000

If product line is eliminated, 30% of the fixed expenses can be eliminated.

So, it becomes,

30% of $600000 is given by

0.3\times 600000\\\\=\$18000

Hence, the relevant costs are $18000 in the decision to eliminate this product line.
