<span>The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

</span>( \frac{30}{46}) * ( \frac{29}{45}) * ( \frac{28}{44}) *( \frac{27}{43})  = 0.168

 

<span>The probability that at least one of the 4 calculators in the sample is defective is complement of 0.168 so the answer is 0.832.</span>

What is the answer to ax+z =aw-y if you are solving for a
inysia [295]
Ax + z = aw - y....subtract aw from both sides
ax - aw + z = -y....subtract z from both sides
ax - aw = -y - z....factor out a on the left side
a(x - w) = -y - z...divide both sides by (x-w)
a = (-y - z) / (x - w)

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio on right triangle KJL

and the exact value sin30° = \frac{1}{2}

sin30° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{JL}{KL} = \frac{JL}{8\sqrt{2} } = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

2JL = 8\sqrt{2} ( divide both sides by 2 )

JL = 4\sqrt{2}

---------------------------------------------------------

Using the sine ratio in right triangle JLM

and the exact value sin45° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

sin45° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenude} = \frac{LM}{JL} = \frac{x}{4\sqrt{2} } = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } ( cross- multiply )

x × \sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2} ( divide both sides by \sqrt{2}

x = 4

Solve the proportion 5/6 = c/9
AnnZ [28]

5/6= c/9

Cross mutiple. 5* 9= 45 . c*6

45= 6c

divide by 6 for 45 and 6c

45/6= 6c/6

45/6= c

Reduce 45/6. Divide by 3

45/3, 6/3

15/2= c

Answer: c= 15/2 or in decimal form , c= 7.5

What is the least possible degree of a polynomial that has roots -5, 1+4i, and -4i
N76 [4]
If complex coefficients are allowed, the answer is 3.

If the polynomial must have real coefficients, then each complex root comes as a pair of complex conjugate roots.

Root -5 is real, so that is 1 root, and degree 1.

Root 1 + 4i is complex, so it must come with its complex conjugate, 1 - 4i. This adds 2 roots to the polynomial, and now we're up to degree 3.

Root -4i is also complex. It also must come with its complex conjugate, 4i. That adds two more roots, and the degree is 5.

Answer: The least possible degree is 5 with real coefficients.

Find the value of x if y = -14, m = -2, and b = -2 in the formula y = mx + b.
posledela

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -14, m = -2, b = -2

-14 = -2(x) + -2

-14 = -2x + -2

-12 = -2x

Divide by -2.

x = 6
