Answer:

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have that A drawer contains 11 identical red socks and 8 identical black socks, hence, the total number of socks is 19, therefore, in order to calculate the probability of getting a pair of red socks we would have to use the following formula:

probability of getting a pair of red socks=11C2/19C2

probability of getting a pair of red socks=55/171

probability of getting a pair of red socks=0.322

The probability of getting a pair of red socks is 0.322

Answer:

From $1600 to $3400.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 2500

Standard deviation = 300

What interval of dealer incentives would we expect approximately 99.7% of vehicles to fall within?

By the Empirical Rule, 99.7% fall within 3 standard deviations frow the mean. So

From 2500 - 3*300 = 1600 to 2500 + 3*300 = 3400.

I know it is a long question but please I will mark brainlist to the person who answers please help
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Carla lives 16 miles from the Library.

The mistake is drawng the diagram incorrectly and using the miles given in the wrong places. The <u>student's</u> diagram has Yuri in a place that's Southwest of the Library in the diagram given

Step-by-step explanation:

If Yuri lives 24 miles SOUTH of the library, the "b" side of the triangle should be 24, with the Library at the top and Yuri at the bottom left, which is the west end of the base. The base "a" of the triangle should extend 10 to the right (East in compas directions) forming the right angle. Carla lives at the sharp southeast corner of the triangle, and the Hypotenuse "c"  from her house to the Library is the distance we have to figure.

c² =a² + b²

c² = 10² + 24²

c² = 100 + 576

c² = 676

√c² = √676

c = 26       Carla lives 26 miles from the Library.

Domain= {2,3,8,9}

Range = {7,9,14} ( Notice that 14 is noted twice so just put it as once and this is not part of the answer)

Function: Is any of the domain numbers the same: Answer Yes it's a function.
