8 0

Answer:


False, 6:4 and 18:8 are equal ratios.


Step-by-step explanation:


Given data:


6:4 ≠ 18:8


Explanation.


1. 6:4 = 6/4 = 3/2


2. 18:8= 18/8 = 9/4 = 3/2


Hence proved:


                                            6:4 = 18:8

Suppose that the probability that any particle emitted by a radioactive material will penetrate a certain shield is 0.01. If 10
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

a)P=0.42

b) n\geq 297

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a binomial distribution, since the result of each experiment admits only two categories (success and failure) and the value of both possibilities is constant in all experiments. The probability of getting k successes in n trials is given by:

P=\begin{pmatrix}n\\ k\end{pmatrix} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n!-k!)}p^k(1-p)^{n-k}

a) we have k=2, n=10 and p=0.01:

P=\frac{10!}{2!(10!-2!)}0.01^2(1-0.01)^{10-2}\\P=\frac{10!}{2!*8!}0.01^2(0.99)^{8}\\P=45*0.01^2(0.99)^8=0.42

b) We have, 1-(1-p)^n=P, Here P is the probability that at least one particle will penetrate the shield, this probabity has to be equal or greater than 0.95. Therefore, this will be equal to subtract from the total probability, the probability that the particles do not penetrate raised to the total number of particles.

1-0.99^n\geq 0.95\\0.99^n\leq 1-0.95\\0.99^n\leq 0.05\\n\geq 297

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the following
Valentin [98]
The perpendicular equation would include a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original slope.

Steps:
1. Get x to the other side in the original equation. This making the slope -4 or -4/1.

2. Turn the slope into it’s opposite reciprocal m = 1/4.

3. If you use point-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1 ), you can substitute y1 and x1 with the numbers in the point given. But since we previously found the opposite reciprocal, we will replace “m” as well. *By the way, the subtraction of a negative makes a positive. [y + 3 = 1/4( x + 4 )]

4. Solve:
A: Distribute (y + 3 = 1/4x + 1)
B: Subtract 3 from both sides (y = 1/4x -2)

Perpendicular Equation: y = 1/4x - 2

If you buy six pens and one mechanical pencil, you'll get only $1 change from your $10 bill. but if you buy four pens and two me
xxTIMURxx [149]

Let p be the prize of a pen and m the prize of a mechanical pencils. If you buy six pens and one mechanical pencil, you spend 6p+m. We know that this equals 9, because you get 1$ change from a 10$ bill.

Similarly, if you buy four pens and two mechanical pencils, you spend 4p+2m, which is 8$, because now you get a $2 change. Put these equation together in a system:

\begin{cases} 6p+m=9\\4p+2m=8\end{cases}

Now, if you multiply the first equation by 2, the system becomes

\begin{cases} 12p+2m=18\\4p+2m=8\end{cases}

Subtract the second equation from the first:

12p+2m - (4p+2m) = 18-8 \iff 8p = 10 \iff p = \dfrac{10}{8} = 1.25

Plug this value into the first equation to get

6p+m=9 \iff 6\cdot 1.25 +m = 9 \iff 7.5 +m=9 \iff m = 9-7.5 = 1.5
