The American Community Survey is completed by the US Census Bureau to obtain information about households in the US. One variabl

e of interest is how many people reside in each household (vacant households were recorded as having zero people). Based on data from 2014, here is the partially completed probability distribution of H, the number of people residing in a randomly selected US household:
H 0 1 2 3 4 5+
P(H) ? 0.24 0.30 0.14 0.11 0.09
Find the missing probability in the table

Answer:

The missing probability is 0.12        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

  H:  0      1         2         3       4       5

P(H): x   0.24   0.30   0.14   0.11   0.09

Let x be the missing probability.

Property of discrete probability distribution:

\displaystyle\sum P(x_i) = 1\\\Rightarrow  x+ 0.24+ 0.30+ 0.14 +0.11 +0.09 = 1\\\Rightarrow x + 0.88 = 1\\\Rightarrow x  = 1 - 0.88\\\Rightarrow x = 0.12

Thus, the missing probability is 0.12

Help me please, Find a, b, and c.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a = 6*\sqrt{3}

b = 12

c = 6\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are right triangles with 60 and 45 degree angles, their side lengths follow special triangles.

A 45-45-90 right triangle has side lengths 1-1-\sqrt{2}.

A 30-60-90 right triangle has side lengths 1 - \sqrt{3} -2.

Starting with the top triangle which has a 60 degree angle, its side length 6 corresponds to a side length of 1 in the special triangle. It is 6 times bigger so its remaining sides will be 6 times bigger too.

Side a corresponds to side length \sqrt{3}. Therefore, a = 6*\sqrt{3}.

Side b corresponds to side length 2, b = 2*6 = 12.

The bottom triangle has a 45 degree angle, its side length b= 12 corresponds to \sqrt{2}. This means \sqrt{2} was multiplied by 12 = \sqrt{2} * \sqrt{72}. This means that side c is \sqrt{72}=6\sqrt{2}.

last year 950 people attended a towns annual parade. this year 1,520 people attended what was the percent increase in attendance
inessss [21]
<span>To calculate the percentage increase: First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
1520-950=570
570÷950= 0.6 × 100=60%
