The answer is 23.

11+23=34

there are two numbers so divide by 2 to find the average and you get 17.

I have 2 questions to ask 1 is divide 180 degrees in a ratio of 4,5 and 9

MAXImum [283]

Here's how to do dividing in a certain ratio:

-- You want to divide up the whole thing in the ratio of
4 parts, 5 parts, and 9 parts.

-- How many parts all together ? (4 + 5 + 9) = 18 parts all together.

-- The whole thing is 180, and that's 18 total parts.
So each part is (180/18) = 10 degrees.

4 parts = (4 x 10) = 40
5 parts = (5 x 10) = 50
9 parts = (9 x 10) = 90.

Check: (40 + 50 + 90) = 180 . yay!

==============================

For the second one, I think there are some words missing.

The number of errors in a textbook follow a poisson distribution with a mean of 0.01 errors per page. what is the probability th

neonofarm [45]

Mean number of errors in each page = 0.01
Mean number of errors in 100 pages = 0.01*100=1

It is possible to use the cumulative distribution function (CMF), but the math is a little more complex, involving the gamma-function. Tables and software are available for that purpose.

Thus it is easier to evaluate with a calculator for the individual cases of k=0,1,2 and 3.

The Poisson distribution has a PMF (probability mass function)

$P(k):=\frac{\lambda^ke^{-\lambda}}{k!}$
with λ = 1
=>
$P(0):=\frac{1^0e^{-1}}{0!}=0.3678794$
$P(1):=\frac{1^1e^{-1}}{1!}=0.3678794$
$P(2):=\frac{1^2e^{-1}}{2!}=0.1839397$
$P(3):=\frac{1^3e^{-1}}{3!}=0.0613132$
=>
$P(k$
or
P(k<=3)=0.9810 (to four decimal places)

25⋅5⋅5⋅4 A.500 B.2000 C.2500 D.5000

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

25 x 5 = 125

125 x 5 = 625

625 x 4 = 2500

So, 25 x 5 x 5 x 4 is 2,500

The change in water vapor in a cloud is modeled by a polynomial function, C(x). C(x) = x^3+ 5x^2+3x+30 Describe how to find the

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Suppose the equation that describes the change in water vapor in a cloud (y) with respect to temperature (x): C(x) = x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10

You find the x-intercepts of the cubic equation by finding the roots. Let y be zero:

x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10 = 0

Now, find possible factors of the constant term in the equation: 10. These could be 1, 2, 5, and 10. Suppose we choose 1. We substitute x=1. If the answer is zero, then x=1 is one of the roots.

(1)³ - 4(1)² - 7(1) + 10 = 0

Hence, x=1 or x-1 = 0 is one of the roots. We use this to manipulate the rest of the terms in the original equation, such that you can factor out (x-1). Substitute -x² - 3x² to -4x³ because they are just equal. Same is true for +3x - 10x for -7x:

x³ -x² - 3x²+3x - 10x + 10 = 0

Factor out like terms such that they have a common factor of (x-1) as much as possible.

x³ -x² = x²(x-1)

- 3x²+3x = -3x(x-1)

- 10x + 10 = -10(x-1)

The factored equation is:

x²(x-1)-3x(x-1)-10(x-1) = 0

Factor out (x-1):

(x-1)(x²-3x-10) = 0

Now, we have the quadratic equation left to be solved:x²-3x-10

Use the quadratic formula to find the roots:

x = [-b +/- √(b²-4ac)]/2a,

The a, b and c coefficients are based on the general form of the quadratic equation: ax² + bx + c. Hence, a=1, b=-3 and c=-10. Substituting the values:

x = [-(-3) +/- √((-3)²-4(1)(-10))]/2(1)

x = 5, -2

Therefore, the roots of the cubic equations are x = 1, x = 5 and x =- 2. These are the x-intercepts of the equation. At temperatures °C, 5°C and -2°C, there is no change in water vapor in a cloud. The graph is shown in the attached picture
