Answer:

B) -7m - 8 = m - 4

D) m - 4 = -7m - 8

E) -8 - 7m = -4 + m

Solve all of the equations to see if they end up with the same result. Start with the original:

-2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m

-7m - 8 = -4 + m (now we know B and D and E are correct)

-7m - m - 8 = -4 + m - m

-8m - 8 = -4

-8m - 8 + 8= -4 + 8

-8m = 4

-7m-8= m-4 is the correct answer because of order of operations and PEMDAS.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

The answer is "2793 miles"

Step-by-step explanation:

In this firstly we convert degrees to radians, which can be defined as follows:

$\to \theta =\frac{40^{\circ} \times \pi }{180^{\circ}}$

$=\frac{ 2\pi }{9}$

Now calculating the distance:

$=\frac{2\pi }{9} \times 4000\\\\= \frac{8000 \pi }{9}$

$=\frac{8000\times 3.14 }{9}\\\\ = \frac{25120}{9}\\\\=2793 \ miles$

The triangle to solve for has a leg or 12 feet, hypotenuse of 20 feet, so solve for Pythagoras $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ for a

$a = \sqrt{c^{2} -b^{2}}$

a = 16 feet

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence of Bernoulli trials forms the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Let the probability of success on a Bernoulli trial be 0.26.

This means that $p = 0.26$

a. In five Bernoulli trials, what is the probability that there will be 4 failures?

Five trials means that $n = 5$

4 failures, so 1 success, and we have to find P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.26)^{1}.(0.74)^{4} = 0.3898$

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures

The answer is 4.7 x 10^-4
If you move the decimal to the right, the exponent will be negative. If you move it to the left, the exponent will be positive.
