Let's say the second piece is x ft long
The first piece is 2x ft long
The third piece is x+4 ft long
All of the pieces should add up to 10ft
x+2x+x+4=10
4x= 6
x=1.5ft
The first piece is 2x ft long=3 ft long

Suppose three marksmen shoot at a target. The ith marksman fires ni times, hitting the target each time with probability Pi, ind
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Distribution is NOT binomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be a binomial distribution, the probability of success for each individual trial must be the same. Since each marksman hits the target with probability Pi, the probability of success (hitting the target) is not necessarily equal for all trials. Therefore, the distribution is not binomial.

In this case, the distribution would only be binomial if Pi was the same for every "ith" marksman.

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 264. What are the integers? (show your work)
Anettt [7]

Answer:

1 Expert Answer

X + Y + Z = 264. Since Y is 1 bigger than X, Y = X + 1. Since Z is 1 bigger than Y, Z = Y + 1. But Y = X + 1, so Z = (X + 1) + 1 = X + 2.

Question 2<br> Answer<br><br> Solve
Lelu [443]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • Option B is correct.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>To subtract fractions, we must check if the denominators of both fractions are the same.</u>

  • 2/5 - 1/7
  • => 2 x 7/5 x 7 - 1 x 5/7 x 5
  • => 14/35 - 5/35

<u>Now, let's subtract for the result.</u>

  • => 9/35

Hence, <u>Option B is correct.</u>

Hoped this helped.

Can someone plz explain how to do this Algebra 1 A=1/2(a+b)h for h
Alex_Xolod [135]
<span>A=1/2(a+b)h for h.

First, you need to get rid of 1/2, so divide both sides by 1/2.
A/(1/2) = (a + b)h

You can simplify the </span>A/(1/2) by multiplying by the reciprocal of 1/2, so 2/1.

2A = (a + b)h

Now divide both sides by (a+b).

2A/(a+b) = h
