Answer:

30 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Angelo reads 1&1/2 pages in 3 minutes.

$1 \frac{1}{2} =\frac{3}{2}$

3/2 pages read in 3 minutes, we need to find the pages read in 1 hour

we know that 1 hour = 60 minutes

In 3 minutes pages read = 3/2

To find out reading speed, we divide number of pages by minutes

Reading speed per minute= $\frac{\frac{3}{2} }{3} =\frac{1}{2}$

So his reading speed in pages per hour is $\frac{1}{2} \cdot 60= 30$

Answer:

30 pages a hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 every 3 minutes

there is 60 minuts in an hou you already have 3 so thimes it by 20 to get 60 then times 60 by 1.5

In a binomial distribution, n = 8 and π=0.36. Find the probabilities of the following events. (Round your answers to 4 decimal p

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$\mathbf{P(X=5) =0.0888}$

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.9707

P ( x ≥ 6) = 0.0293

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a binomial mass distribution can be expressed with the formula:

$\mathtt{P(X=x) =(^{n}_{x} ) \ \pi^x \ (1-\pi)^{n-x}}$

$\mathtt{P(X=x) =(\dfrac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} ) \ \pi^x \ (1-\pi)^{n-x}}$

where;

n = 8 and π = 0.36

For x = 5

The probability $\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8!}{5!(8-5)!} ) \ 0.36^5 \ (1-0.36)^{8-5}}$

$\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8!}{5!(3)!} ) \ 0.36^5 \ (0.64)^{3}}$

$\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5!}{5!(3)!} ) \times \ 0.0060466 \ \times 0.262144}$

$\mathtt{P(X=5) =(\dfrac{8 \times 7 \times 6 }{3 \times 2 \times 1} ) \times \ 0.0060466 \ \times 0.262144}$

$\mathtt{P(X=5) =({8 \times 7 } ) \times \ 0.0060466 \ \times 0.262144}$

$\mathtt{P(X=5) =0.0887645}$

$\mathbf{P(X=5) =0.0888}$ to 4 decimal places

b. x ≤ 5

The probability of P ( x ≤ 5) $\mathtt{P(x \leq 5) = P(x = 0)+ P(x = 1)+ P(x = 2)+ P(x = 3)+ P(x = 4)+ P(x = 5})$

${P(x \leq 5) = ( \dfrac{8!}{0!(8!)} \times (0.36)^0 \times (1-0.36)^8 \ ) + \dfrac{8!}{1!(7!)} \times (0.36)^1 \times (1-0.36)^7 \ +$ $\dfrac{8!}{2!(6!)} \times (0.36)^2 \times (1-0.36)^6 \ + \dfrac{8!}{3!(5!)} \times (0.36)^3 \times (1-0.36)^5 + \dfrac{8!}{4!(4!)} \times (0.36)^4 \times (1-0.36)^4 \ + \dfrac{8!}{5!(3!)} \times (0.36)^5 \times (1-0.36)^3 \ )$

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.0281+0.1267+0.2494+0.2805+0.1972+0.0888

P(x ≤ 5 ) = 0.9707

c. x ≥ 6

The probability of P ( x ≥ 6) = 1 - P( x ≤ 5 )

P ( x ≥ 6) = 1 - 0.9707

P ( x ≥ 6) = 0.0293

Hi everybody! I need help, and this question is worth TEN points!

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we know,

The Angle Addition Postulate states that: If a point lies in the interior of an angle, then the postulate describes that putting two angles side by side with their vertices together creates a new angle whose measure equals the sum of the measures of the two original angles.

Here, W is the internal point.

The two angles are UVW and WVX.

Now, by the angle addition postulate,

UVX is equal to the sum of UVW and WVX.

Hence, the reason is-
