we are given

highest wieghted value

For example: if we are given a number 293

Here , heighest weighted value is 2

because 2 is at hundredth place

we also call it "most significant digit" or MSD

Hence ,

The digit with the greatest weight (value) in a number is called the most significant digit (MSD)

During the 2015-16 NBA season, Steven Adams of the Oklahoma City Thunder had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.502 . Assume

laila [671]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability that Steven Adams makes any given free throw is fixed at 0.502, then this is a binomial probability. It is either he makes a free throw or he doesn't. The probability of success, p = 0.502

The probability of failure, q = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.502 = 0.498

a) We want to determine P(x ≥ 7)

n = 8

Using the binomial probability calculator,

P(x ≥ 7) = 0.036

b) We want to determine P(x ≥ 70)

n = 80

Using the binomial probability calculator,

P(x ≥ 70) < 0.000001

c) Mean = np = 8 × 0.502 = 4.016

Standard deviation = √npq = √(8 × 0.502 × 0.498) = 1.41

d) Mean = 80 × 0.502 = 40.16

Standard deviation = √npq = √(80 × 0.502 × 0.498) = 4.47

Sam runs for 10 minutes The graph shows his puse, in beats per minute. 100- (beats per min) 80- 1 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 10 Time (min) By

Inessa05 [86]

The rate at which his pulse is increasing after 3 minutes is 9.5 beats per minute

<h3>How to determine the beat rate after 3 minutes?</h3>

The given graph shows the curve and the tangent.

From tangent line, we have the following points:

(x,y) = (3,119) and (1,100)

The beat rate (m) at this point is:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$

So, we have:

$m = \frac{100 - 119}{1 - 3}$

Evaluate the differences

$m = \frac{-19}{-2}$

Evaluate the quotient

m = 9.5

Hence, the rate at which Sam's pulse is increasing after 3 minutes is 9.5 beats per minute

<h3>What is unitary method?</h3>

The unitary method is a method for figuring out a single unit's value, then multiplying that value by itself to get the required value. An individual or singular unit is referred to as unitary. Because of this, the goal of this method is to determine values in reference to a single unit. The unitary technique can be used, for instance, to determine how many kilometers a car can go on one litre of gas if it can travel 44 km on two litres of gas. A single unit's value is determined using the unitary approach, and the value of the necessary number of units can then be determined using this value.

You roll a 6 sided die 2 times what is the probability of rolling a 6 and then rolling a number greater than 2

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

1/9 probability of rolling a 6 and then a number greater than 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rolling a six on the first go is 1/6 chance

2. Rolling a number greater than 2, for example 4, is also 1/6 chance

3. So we know that at first, there is a 1/6 chance of rolling a 6, now when the die is rolled again, there needs to be a 3, 4, 5 or 6, each of these has a 1/6 chance again

4. So the chance of rolling a 6 and then a 3 is solved by finding the chance of rolling 6, then multiplying that by the chance of rolling a 3 afterwards

5. We get an equation of 1/6 x 1/6 which = 1/36

6. We apply this to the rest of the possible combinations, 6 and then 4 which is 1/36, 6 and then 5 etc.

7. Once we find all possible combinations, we add them up, this means that 6 then 3 = 1/36, 6 then 4 = 1/36, 6 then 5 = 1/36 and 6 then 6 = 1/36 is added so we get 1/36 + 1/36 + 1/36 + 1/36 = 4/36

8. We simplify this to get 1/9
