Answer:

Height ( h) = 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An equilateral triangle with side = 8 √3.

To find : What us the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle .

Solution : We have given equilateral triangle with side = 8 √3.

By taking the half triangle,

By the Pythagorean theorem :

(Hypotenuse)² = ( adjacent)² + (opposite)².

Plug the values Hypotenuse = 8√3 , adjacent = 4√3 , opposite = h.

(8√3)² = ( 4√3)² + (h)².

192 = 48 + (h)².

On subtracting by 48 both sides.

192 -48 = (h)².

144 = (h)².

On taking square root .

h = 12 .

Therefore, Height ( h) = 12 units.

Answer:

Solving the inequality $3x -2 < 4$ we get $\mathbf{x$

Option D is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality $3x -2 < 4$ and find value of x

Solving the inequality for finding value of x, we will keep x on left side of inequality and all other terms on the right side.

$3x -2 < 4$

Adding 2 on both sides

$3x -2+2 < 4+2\\3x < 6$

Now, we will divide 3 on both sides

$\frac{3x}{3}$

So, we get x < 2

Solving the inequality $3x -2 < 4$ we get $\mathbf{x$

Option D is correct option.

Probabilities with possible states of nature: s1, s2, and s3. Suppose that you are given a decision situation with three possibl

amm1812

Answer:

1. $P(s_1|I)=\frac{1}{11}$

2. $P(s_2|I)=\frac{8}{11}$

3. $P(s_3|I)=\frac{2}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

$P(s_1)=0.1, P(s_2)=0.6, P(s_3)=0.3$

$P(I|s_1)=0.15,P(I|s_2)=0.2,P(I|s_3)=0.1$

(1)

We need to find the value of P(s₁|I).

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{(0.15)(0.1)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{0.015}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{0.015}{0.165}$

$P(s_1|I)=\frac{1}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₁|I) is $\frac{1}{11}$ .

(2)

We need to find the value of P(s₂|I).

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{P(I|s_2)P(s_2)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{(0.2)(0.6)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{0.12}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{0.12}{0.165}$

$P(s_2|I)=\frac{8}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₂|I) is $\frac{8}{11}$ .

(3)

We need to find the value of P(s₃|I).

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}{P(I|s_1)P(s_1)+P(I|s_2)P(s_2)+P(I|s_3)P(s_3)}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{(0.1)(0.3)}{(0.15)(0.1)+(0.2)(0.6)+(0.1)(0.3)}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{0.03}{0.015+0.12+0.03}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{0.03}{0.165}$

$P(s_3|I)=\frac{2}{11}$

Therefore the value of P(s₃|I) is $\frac{2}{11}$ .
