A test has multiple choice questions with 5 choices for each answer, only one answer is correct for each question. Suppose a stu

dent guesses the answer to each question. Assuming the guesses are independent, find the probability that the student will not guess correctly on any one question.

Answer:

The probability that the student will not guess correctly on any one question is 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The question posed is an application of the binomial probability distribution.

We have been informed that the test has multiple choice questions with 5 choices for each answer that only one answer is correct for each question.

If the student guesses the answer to each question, then the probability that the student will guess correctly on any one question is 1/5.

Therefore, the probability that the student will not guess correctly on any one question is;

1 - 1/5 = 4/5

The diagram shows an empty cylindrical container. Ana puts a solid cube of side length 8 cm into the container. She then pours 1
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

<h3><u>Cylinder</u></h3>

\textsf{Volume of a cylinder}=\sf \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}

Given:

  • r = 6 cm
  • h = 18 cm

\begin{aligned}\implies \sf V &= \sf \pi (6)^2(18)\\& = \sf 648 \pi \: cm^3\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Cube</u></h3>

\textsf{Volume of a cube}=\sf x^3\quad\textsf{(where x is the side length)}

Given:

  • x = 8 cm

\begin{aligned}\implies \sf V &= 8^3\\& = \sf 512 \: cm^3\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Volume available to be filled with water</u></h3>

Volume of cylinder - volume of cube

= 684π - 512

= 1532.75204 cm³

    1 litre = 1000 cm³

⇒ 1.5 litres = 1000 × 1.5 = 1500 cm³

As 1500 < 1532.75204, the volume of water poured into the container is smaller than the empty space available in the cylinder.  Therefore, the water will <u>not</u> come over the top of the container.

Can All mixed numbers can be renamed as decimals?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

We can convert a mixed number (or mixed fraction) to a decimal. Strategies to convert mixed fractions to decimals: Change the mixed fraction to an improper fraction and then divide. Convert the fractional part only and then add it to the whole number.

Please help with at least one question.

Okay, first off negative is well negative and since there is no other negatives, -5/7 is least (making it go first). Second, what is smaller 3/5 or 2/9, remember that the bigger the denominator the smaller the piece.

[/] [/] [/] [] [] = 3/5

[/] [/] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] 2/9

At the end it should be -5/7, 2/9 , 3/5. This method can go the same for problems like these...Hope it helps!
