Mathematics

kicyunya [14]4 years ago
3 0

The probabilities:

-Two break points are selected randomly (and distributed uniformly) on the stick.

The stick is first broken into two pieces. The longest (or rather, not the shortest) is then broken into two.

-The stick is first broken into two pieces. A piece randomly selected with probability 1/2 is then broken into two.

-The stick is first broken into two pieces. A piece randomly selected with the probability proportional to its length is then broken into two.

The volume of this cone is 320Tr units. What is the height of this cone if the radius is 8 units?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Height = 4.78 unit approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a one is given by the formula 1/3πr²h

So given that yhe volume of this cone is equal to 320Tr units

And the radius is 8 units.

Lets determine the height of the cone.

V= 1/3πr²h

But V = 320

r = 8

320 = 1/3((3.14)(8)²h

(320*3)/(3.14*64)= h

960/200.96= h

4.777= h

h = 4.78 unit approximately

I think there are no potential bias since expect for when the test subjects were selected. There is no mention of how the subjects were selected. This could result to lurking variables which are is the hereditary susceptibility to tumors and congenital conditions of the mice that might be in the form of tumors already present in the mice's bodies.
