As we look at the question Answer is :12x +15
Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !
This piece of information is a big help. It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .
-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.
One short side=48. Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48. Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares: 2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608
The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)
Answer:
P(X is less than 348) = 0.2148
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Sample proportion (p) = 0.3
Sample size = 1200
Let X be the random variable that obeys a binomial distribution. Then;

The Binomial can be approximated to normal with:


To find:
P(X< 348)
So far we are approximating a discrete Binomial distribution using the continuous normal distribution. 348 lies between 347.5 and 348.5
Normal distribution:
x = 347.5,
= 360,
= 15.875
Using the z test statistics;



z = -0.7874
z ≅ - 0.79
The p-value for P(X<347.5) = P(Z < -0.79)
From the z tables;
P(X<347.5) = 0.2148
Thus;
P(X is less than 348) = 0.2148
Ming needs to play for 15 hours to get 500 points. They gave him 200 for signing up, so 500-200=300 more points needed. 300 divided by 20= 15 more hours.
