Answer:

<em></em>

<em>The team must win 2 games to have a win : loss ratio o 2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <u>Ratio win : loss, r</u>:

       r = total wins / total losses

       

  • <u>Total wins, Tw</u>:

        Call n the number of new wins:

        Tw =number of wins until so far + number of new win = 6 + n

  • <u>Total losses, Tl</u>:

        Tl = number of losses so far + number of new losses = 4 + 0 = 4

  • <u>Target ratio</u>:

        r = 2 ⇒ Tw / Tl = (6 + n) / 4 = 2

Solve for n:

  • (6 + n ) = 4 × 2
  • 6 + n = 8
  • n = 8 - 6
  • n = 2

Hence,<em> the team must win 6 more games.</em>

  • <u>Verification</u>: (6 + 2 ) / 4 = 8 / 4 = 2, which is the target ratio.

An object at the top of a building with height 110 feet is thrown upward with an initial speed of 23 ft/s. Find its position z(t
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Height of building is h=110\ ft

Initial upward velocity u=23\ ft/s

height of object is given by

z(t)=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

but building is already at a height of 110 ft so z(t) must be given by

Z(t)=ut+\frac{1}{2}(-g)t^2+110

Z(t)=23\times t-\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2

Z(t)=-16t^2+23t+110

Time when it hits is given by when Z(t)=0[/tex]

-16t^2+23t+110=0

t=\frac{-23\pm \sqrt{(23)^2-4\times (-16)\times 110}}{2\times (-16)}

t=\frac{-23\pm 87}{-32}

t=3.43\ s

Hip Breadths and Aircraft Seats
Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 98% of all males. (Accommodating 100% of males would be too expensive.) Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 in. and a standard deviation of 1.0 in. Find P 98. That is, find the hip breadth for men that separates the smallest 98% from the largest 2%.

Please help me this is due in less than 45 minutes!

Answer:

1.) It's 20th century painting

2.) 0.5 probability

Step-by-step explanation:

If the universal = 60

We need to first get the value of X. That is,

x (x - 2) + x + 2x + 8 + 10 = 60

First open the bracket

x^2 - 2x + x + 2x + 8 + 10 = 60

x^2 + x + 18 = 60

x^2 + x - 42 = 0

Factorise the above equation

x^2 + 7x - 6x - 42 = 0

x (x + 7) -6(x + 7) = 0

x = 6 or - 7

Since x can't be negative, so we will ignore -7

The value for T = 6(6 - 2) = 6×4 = 24

The value for B = 2(6) + 8 = 12 + 8 = 20

If a painting is chosen from random,

If it's from 20th century, the probability will be 34/60 = 0.567

If it's from British painting, the probability will be 30/60 = 0.5

We can therefore conclude that it's from 20th century painting since it has higher value of probability.

The the probability of choosing a British painting will be 30/60 = 0.5
