Answer:
hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question
answer : 54 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying jet equation of Parabola
(x-h)^2 = 4p (y-k) where (h,k) = 0
x^2 = 4py and this passes through ( 48, 24 )
(48)^2 = 4(p)(24)
hence P = 24
x^2 = 96h at x = 72 and y(h) unknown
= 72^2 = 96(h)
h = 72^2 / 96 = 54 m

Answer:
Binomial; \mu p=87.5, \sigma p=7.542
Step-by-step explanation:
- a distribution is said be a binomial distribution iff
- The probability of success of that event( let it be p) is same for every trial
- each trial should have 2 outcome : p or (1-p) i.e, success or failure only.
- there are fixed number of trials (n)
- the trials are independent
- here, the trials are obviously independent ( because, one person's debt doesn't influence the other person's)
- here n=250
- the probability of success(0.35) is same for every trial
(35/100=0.35 is the required p here)
[since, the formula for ]
[since, the formula for [tex]\sigma _{p} =\sqrt{n*(p)*(1-p)}
- therefore, it is Binomial; \mu p=87.5, \sigma p=7.542
Answer:
Area of triangle ABC=7 square units
Area of triangle A'B'C'=7 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC is the preimage of triangle A'B'C' under a reflection in the line x=0.
The two triangles are congruent so they have the same area.
We can calculate the area by counting the unit squares the triangle covered.
Each full box is 1 units square.
Each triangle covered
1 full box and 12 partially covered boxes.
Each partial box covered is 0.5 square units.
Therefore the area is
square units
