Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular polygon is a shape with equal sides and angles. Because of this, we can write the following equation to set two sides equal to each other:
Solving, we will get a in terms of b:
Now we can substitute a for (b+3) into our equation:
Therefore, the length of each side of this polygon is .
Since the perimeter of the polygon consists of all five sides, the perimeter is:
Answer:
0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
Step-by-step explanation:
For each pen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a pen being defective is independent from other pens. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And p is the probability of X happening.
17 randomly selected pens
This means that
(a) Find the probability that this shipment is accepted if 10% of the total shipment is defective. (Use 3 decimal places.)
This is when
. So
0.762 = 76.2% probability that this shipment is accepted
Answer:
Graph the equation is shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The linear equation representing the relation between cost of ordering a pizza and the number of additional toppings is:
Here,
<em>y </em>= cost of the pizza
<em>x</em> = number of toppings
The graph of the linear equation is shown below.
Consider the point (2, 10.25).
When <em>x</em> = 2 compute the value of <em>y</em> as follows:
The point (2, 10.25) satisfies the equation.
Again consider a point (18, 18.25).
When <em>x</em> = 18 compute the value of <em>y</em> as follows:
The point (18, 18.25) satisfies the equation.
The two points are also plotted on the graph.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the position function and need to find the value of t when h<17.
Create an inequality that represents this situation:
The "less than" sign makes this very specifically a conjunction problem as opposed to a disjunction. That's important to the solution. But we'll get there.
The simplest way to solve this is to subtract 81 from both sides:
then divide both sides by -16:
Notice now that the sign is facing the other way since we had to divide by a negative number. Now it's a disjunction. The solution set to this inequality is that t>2 or t<-2. First and foremost, time will never be negative, so we can disregard the -2. Even if that was t<2, the more time that goes by, the greater the time interval is, not the lesser. It's the "<" that doesn't make sense, not only the -2. The solution to this inequality is
t > 2 sec. That means that after 2 seconds, the height of the ball is less than 17 feet.
