Naval intelligence reports that 4 enemy vessels in a fleet of 17 are carrying nuclear weapons. If 9 vessels are randomly targete
icang [17]

Answer:

0.7588 = 75.88% probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed

Step-by-step explanation:

The vessels are destroyed without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

Fleet of 17 means that N = 17

4 are carrying nucleas weapons, which means that k = 4

9 are destroyed, which means that n = 9

What is the probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed?

This is:

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1)

In which

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

So

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 0) = h(0,17,9,4) = \frac{C_{4,0}*C_{13,9}}{C_{17,9}} = 0.0294

P(X = 1) = h(1,17,9,4) = \frac{C_{4,1}*C_{13,8}}{C_{17,9}} = 0.2118

Then

P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0294 + 0.2118 = 0.2412

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1) = 1 - 0.2412 = 0.7588

0.7588 = 75.88% probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed

QUICK QUESTION! PLEASE ANSWER FAST!
mr_godi [17]
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
7^2 + B^2 = 25^2
49 + B^2 = 625
-49 -49
B^2 = 576
Square root both sides
B = 24

Pleaseeee help! I'm really confused.
seropon [69]
He will be making a right triangle with the legs being 24 x 45. The diagonal will be the hypotenuse of the triangle. To find the amount of fencing we need the perimeter of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 45^2 = c^2
576 + 2025 = c^2
2601 = c^2
sqrt 2601 = c
c = 51
Adding the three lengths the total fencing needed is
51+24+45=120 meters

HELPPPP FIND THE AREA
GuDViN [60]

you can just split the figure in 2 separate figures and them add the areas:

area rec. 1:

3m×3m= 9m²

area rec. 2:

3m× (2m+3m)

= 3m×5m

=15m²

total area:

9m²+15m²= 24m²
