When dragons on planet Pern lay eggs, the eggs are either green or yellow. The biologists have observed over the years that 19%

of the eggs are yellow, and the rest green. Next spring the lead scientist has permission to randomly select 63 of the dragon eggs to incubate. Consider all the possible samples of 63 dragon eggs. What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 63 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs)

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 19% of the eggs are yellow,

then 19% of 63 = 11.97

Since eggs have no fractions, then the mean number of expected yellow eggs is 12.

4cos^2(x)-7cos(x)+3<br> Please help and explain how you did it :)
dangina [55]

I assume you're asked to solve

4 cos²(<em>x</em>) - 7 cos(<em>x</em>) + 3 = 0

Factor the left side:

(4 cos(<em>x</em>) - 3) (cos(<em>x</em>) - 1) = 0

Then either

4 cos(<em>x</em>) - 3 = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>x</em>) - 1 = 0

cos(<em>x</em>) = 3/4   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>x</em>) = 1

From the first case, we get

<em>x</em> = cos⁻¹(3/4) + 2<em>nπ</em>  <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = -cos⁻¹(3/4) + 2<em>nπ</em>

and from the second,

<em>x</em> = <em>nπ</em>

where <em>n</em> is any integer.

For any positive numbers a, b, and d, with b 1,
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rule of logarithms

log x - log y ⇔ log ( \frac{x}{y} )

then

log_{b} ( \frac{a}{d} ) = log_{b} a - log_{b} d

Answer:

  • A -- base 3, height 4
  • B -- base 4, height 4
  • C -- base 3, height 3
  • D -- base 3, height 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A sort of straightforward way to approach this is to define base and height variables for each of the figures: ba, ha, bb, hb, bc, hc, bd, hd. Then the statements can be used to make equations in these variables.

0. hc = bc . . . . figure C is a square

1. ba = bd

2. ba = bb -1

3. hc = ba

4. hb = ha = bb

5. hc·bc = 9

6. (1/2)ha·ba +(1/2)hb·bb +hc·bc+hd·bd = 38

__

Using equations 0 and 5, we find ...

  hc² = 9   ⇒   hc = 3

From equation 3, ...

  ba = 3

From equation 2, ...

  3 = bb -1   ⇒   bb = 4

From equation 1, ...

  bd = 3

From equation 4, ...

  ha = hb = 4

Filling in the values we know in equation 6, we get ...

  (1/2)(4)(3) +(1/2)(4)(4) +9 +hd(3) = 38

  23 +3hd = 38

  hd = 15/3 = 5

The dimensions are:

  • A -- base 3, height 4
  • B -- base 4, height 4
  • C -- base 3, height 3
  • D -- base 3, height 5
