Answer:

A) It can shoot 15 feet long and has a rotation of 90 degrees.

We can write this area:

Area = Angle*radius^2

The radius is 15 ft.

The angle must be written in radians, so we need to writhe 90° in radians.

180° is equal to pi.

Then 90° = (90°/180°)*pi = pi/2  

where pi = 3.14

Then our area is:

A = (3.14/2)*(15ft)^2 = 353.25 ft^2

B) If we have 12 of those in one yard, we can cover 12 times that area; this is:

A = 12*(353.25 ft^2) = 4239 ft^2

C) Now we want to find the angle such that the covered area for one sprinkler is equal to 1200 ft^2

Then we can replace it in the equation for the area and get:

1200ft^2 = angle*(15ft)^2 = angle*225 ft^2

angle = 1200/225 = 5.33

But this is in radians, so we may convert it to degrees.

We know that 3.14 = 180°

Then we have

5.33 rads = (5.33/3.14)*180° = 305.5°

) The manager of a local Gap store estimates that on average the probability of a customer entering the store and will purchase
xeze [42]

Answer: 1. 0.0256

2. 0.4096

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula , to find the probability of getting x successes:

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x} , where n= Total number of trials

p= Probability of getting success in each trial.

Let x be the number of customers will make purchase.

As per given , we have

p= 0.20

n= 4

1. The probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be:-

P(x=3)=^4C_3(0.20)^3(1-0.20)^{4-3}

P(x=3)=(4)(0.20)^3(0.80)^{1}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{n-1}=n]

P(x=3)=(4)(0.008)(0.80)=0.0256

Hence, the probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase = 0.0256

2. The probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be :

P(x=0)=^4C_0(0.20)^0(1-0.20)^{4-0}

P(x=0)=(1)(0.80)^{4}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{0}=1]

P(x=0)=0.4096

Hence, the probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase= 0.4096

asambeis [7]

Answer:

(-7,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From A to M, the x value went down 2.  If it goes down another 2, it will be at -7.

From A to M, the y value went down 3.  If it goes down another 3, it will be at -3.

(-7,-3)
