Answer:
29
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 5x + 4 ← substitute x = - 5 into the expression
= - 5(- 5) + 4 = 25 + 4 = 29
To find the perimeter of the triangle, you need to know the length of the hypotenuse (h). Use the Pythagorean theorem to find it.
.. h^2 = (4w)^2 + (15/2*w)^2
.. = w^2*(4^2 +(15/2)^2)
.. = w^2*(16 +56 1/4)
.. = w^2*(72 1/4)
Taking the square root, we find the hypotenuse to be
.. h = √(w^2*72.25) = 8.5w = (17/2)w
Now, the length of the triangle's perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides.
.. P = 4w +(15/2)w +(17/2)w
.. P = 20w
The area of the triangle is half the product of base and height:
.. A = (1/2)(4w)(15/2*w)
.. A = 15w^2
So, the ratio of perimeter to area is
.. P/A = (20w)/(15w^2) = 4/(3w) . . . . . . . . simplified expression for P/A
The problem is asking you to find (and graph) the values of w such that
.. P/A < 1
.. 4/(3w) < 1 . . . . . . substitute our value of P/A
.. 4/3 < w . . . . . . . . multiply by w
This is graphed with an open circle around the point 1 1/3, and a solid arrow to the right of that circle. The open circle shows that w=4/3 is NOT a solution, but all values greater than that are.
-15 1/2, -13.2, -13 1/10, 2 1/3 :)
The probability of at least one child inheriting the disease can be given by
<em>P</em>(<em>X</em> ≥ 1) = 1 - <em>P</em>(<em>X</em> = 0). This is because the only choice other than at least one child inheriting the disease is that no children get it.
Since there is a 70% or 0.7 chance that each child will inherit it, there is a 30% or 0.3 chance that they will not. This gives us
1 - <em>P</em>(<em>X</em> = 0) = 1 - (0.3)(0.3)(0.3) = 1 - 0.027 = 0.973
There is a 97.3% chance that at least one of the children will get the disease from their mother.
