This is a case of binomial distribution. The formula used in calculations for binomial probability is:

P = nCr p^r (1-p)^(n-r) 

Where,

P = probability

nCr = combinations of r from n possibilities

p = success rate = 40% = 0.40

n = sample size = 10

 

<span>1st: Let us calculate for nCr for r = 8 to 10. Formula is:</span>

nCr = n! / r! (n-r)! 

10C8 = 10! / 8! 2! = 45

10C9 = 10! / 9! 1! = 10

10C10 = 10! / 10! 0! = 1

 

Calculating for probabilities when r = 8 to 10:

P (r=8) = 45 * 0.4^8 (0.6)^2 = 0.0106

P (r=9) = 10 * 0.4^9 (0.6)^1 = 0.0016

P (r=10) = 1 * 0.4^10 (0.6)^0 = 0.0001

 

Total probability that at least 8 were married = 0.0106 + 0.0016 + 0.0001

Total probability that at least 8 were married = 0.0123

Please help<br><br><br> AOB = ?<br><br> BOC = ?<br><br> BOD = ?
goldfiish [28.3K]
From the diagram, we know that it is an angle that adds up to 360

So

x+4x+2x+10+5x+50=360


Gather like terms

12x+60=360

Move sixty to the other side as a negative number

12x=300

Divide both sirs by twelve

x is equal to 25

AOB is 2x+10

Sub x in 2*25+10

AOB is 60

BOC is 5x+50

5*25+50, which is 175

BOD is x+2x+10

Which is 3x+10

Sub x

3*25+10 which is 85

If the orientation of two shapes is not the same, which transformation(s) should you use to show they are congruent? Why?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation s the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. If an object is transformed, the all its points are also transformed. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Two shapes are congruet if they have the same shape and size, two objects are congruent if they can be moved without changing their shape or size. Congruent transformations are transformation that create congruent objects. The three types are:

  1. Translation: sliding an object either up, down, left or right.
  2. Reflection: Flipping an object over a line
  3. Rotation: turning an object about a point
