Jane sells pillows. For a sale, she marks them down 5%.

mariarad [96]

Two expressions that represent the sale price of the pillows are (p-0.05p) and 0.95p.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Regular price of pillow = p

Mark down = 5% = $\frac{5}{100}=0.05$

Amount of mark down = 0.05p

Amount after mark down = Regular price - Mark down amount

Amount after mark down = p - 0.05p

Taking p common = p(1-0.05) = p(0.95) = 0.95p

Two expressions that represent the sale price of the pillows are (p-0.05p) and 0.95p.

1. A certain manufacturing process to build phone batteries results in the production of defective batteries at a rate of 5% (0.

lesya [120]

Answer:

0.5 ; 0.475 ; 0.689 ; 0.4013

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate of production of defective batteries p = 0.05

Number of batteries produced (n) = 10

The expected number of defective batteries = mean = n * p = 10 * 0.05 = 0.5 batteries

Variance of defective batteries :

Var(X) = n * p * q ; q = 1 - p

Hence,

Var(X) = 10 * 0.05 * 0.95 = 0.475

Standard deviation (X) = sqrt(variance) = sqrt(0.475) = 0.689

Probability that atleast 1 battery is defective :

Using the binomial probability function

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

= 1 - q^n

= 1 - 0.95^10

= 1 - 0.59873693923837890625

= 0.40126306076162109375

= 0.4013

Find the area of the triangle with the given vertices. Use the fact that the area of the triangle having u and v as adjacent sid

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The area of the triangle is $A=\sqrt{\frac{4027}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that the area of the triangle having u and v as adjacent sides is given by

$A=\frac{1}{2}||{\bf u} \times {\bf v} ||$

We know that we want to take a cross product to compute the area of the triangle, but we need to be careful because it doesn't make sense if we take the cross product of points.

The first step is to build some vectors that describe this triangle.

According with the graph we can build the vectors:

${\bf AB}$ and ${\bf AC}$

The vector ${\bf AB}$ is the difference of point B minus point A

${\bf AB}=(5-3,5-5,0-9)=(2,0,-9)$

and the vector ${\bf AC}$ is the difference of point C minus point A

${\bf AC}=(-4-3,0-5,2-9)=(-7,-5,-7)$

Next we need to find the cross product of this vectors.

${\bf AB} \times {\bf AC}=\begin{pmatrix}2&0&-9\end{pmatrix}\times \begin{pmatrix}-7&-5&-7\end{pmatrix}$

This is the definition of cross product of two vectors in space:

Let ${\bf u} = u_1{\bf i}+u_2{\bf j}+u_3{\bf k}$ and ${\bf v} = v_1{\bf i}+v_2{\bf j}+v_3{\bf k}$ be vectors in space. The cross product of ${\bf u}$ and ${\bf v}$ is the vector

${\bf u} \times {\bf v}=(u_2v_3-u_3v_2){\bf i}-(u_1v_3-u_3v_1){\bf j}+(u_1v_2-u_2v_1){\bf k}$

Applying this definition we get

${\bf AB} \times {\bf AC}=\begin{pmatrix}2&0&-9\end{pmatrix}\times \begin{pmatrix}-7&-5&-7\end{pmatrix}$

$\begin{pmatrix}0\cdot \left(-7\right)-\left(-9\left(-5\right)\right)&-9\left(-7\right)-2\left(-7\right)&2\left(-5\right)-0\cdot \left(-7\right)\end{pmatrix}\\\\\begin{pmatrix}-45&77&-10\end{pmatrix}$

$||{\bf AB} \times {\bf AC}||=\sqrt{(-45)^2+(77)^2+(-10)^2} \\\\||{\bf AB} \times {\bf AC}||=\sqrt{2025+5929+100}\\\\||{\bf AB} \times {\bf AC}||=\sqrt{8054}$

The area of the triangle is

$A=\frac{1}{2}||{\bf AB} \times {\bf AC} ||=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{8054}=\sqrt{\frac{4027}{2}}$
