Answer:

a) The probability that at least 5 ties are too tight is P=0.0432.

b) The probability that at most 12 ties are too tight is P=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we could represent the proabilities of this events with the Binomial distirbution, with parameter p=0.1 and sample size n=20.

a) We can express the probability that at least 5 ties are too tight as:

$P(x\geq5)=1-\sum\limits^4_{k=0} {\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}}\\\\P(x\geq5)=1-(0.1216+0.2702+0.2852+0.1901+0.0898)\\\\P(x\geq5)=1-0.9568=0.0432$

The probability that at least 5 ties are too tight is P=0.0432.

a) We can express the probability that at most 12 ties are too tight as:

$P(x\leq 12)=\sum\limits^{12}_{k=0} {\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}}\\\\P(x\leq 12)=0.1216+0.2702+0.2852+0.1901+0.0898+0.0319+0.0089+0.0020+0.0004+0.0001+0.0000+0.0000+0.0000\\\\P(x\leq 12)=1$

The probability that at most 12 ties are too tight is P=1.

Line L1, L2 and L3 are in the same plane, L1 is perpendicular to L2, and L3 is parallel to L1. which of the following statement

exis [7]

Only Statement 2 is surely correct.
because there maybe chances that the line L1 and L3 lies above the line L2 and they can also fulfill the condition of perpendicularity so we can't be sure about statement 3 & statement 1 is clearly incorrect

A student pushes a 51.5 kilogram bookshelf across a smooth floor with a net force of 67 N.

iren [92.7K]

The acceleration of the bookshelf is equal to 1.30 $m/s^2$

Given the following data:

Mass of bookshelf = 51.5 kilogram

Net force = 67 Newton

To determine the acceleration of the bookshelf, we would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object while being inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, Newton's Second Law of Motion is given by this formula;

$Acceleration = \frac{Net\;force}{Mass}$

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$Acceleration = \frac{67}{51.5}$

Acceleration = 1.30 $m/s^2$

F(x) = 2x^2 − 3x − 5 Part

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: Answer is in the steps..

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= $2x^{2}$ - 3x -5

A) To find the x intercepts of a parabola we have to set the whole equation equal zero because the x intercept is when y equal zero in other words where f(x) equal zero.

$2x^{2}$ - 3x - 5 = 0 Now solve using quadratic formula.

x = -b± $\frac{\sqrt{b^2 -4ac } }{2a}$

x = 3 ± $\sqrt{9+40} /2a$

x = 3 ± $\sqrt{49}$ / 2a

x= 3 ± 7 /4

x= -1 or x = 5/2

The x intercepts are (5/2,0) and (-1,0)

B) The graph vertex of the graph of f(x) is going to be at a minimum because the leading coefficient of the function has a positive integer which means the parabola will open up and its vertex will be at the minimum point.

Using the x coordinates we could find their average and find the x coordinate of the vertex.

$\frac{5}{2} + -\frac{1}{1}$ = $\frac{3}{2} / \frac{2}{1}$ = 3/4

The x coordinate of the vertex is 3/4 so we will input that into the equation and solve for the y coordinate

$2(\frac{3}{4})^2 - 3 (\frac{3}{4}) - 5$ = 18/16 - 9/4 -5 = -49/8

The y coordinate of the vertex is -49/8

So the vertex is (3/4, -49/8)

C) First I will graph the vertex and then graph he two x intercepts and connect then like a U shape.
