Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diver started 4 four feet above the ground and ended 58 feet below the surface, the diver went down, so we can solve this by taking the total distance traveled like so:

$|4+58|$ = 62

Please HELP me 50 points worth

Leokris [45]

Answer:

y=-½x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) a perpendicular lines uses the opposite inverse of a line so the slope becomes -½x

2.) make an equation that looks as so:

y=-½x+b

the y intercept is unknown so it must be a variable.

3.) substitute the points you are given into the equation:

3=-½(4)+b

4.) solve for b

3=2+b

-2|-2

1=b

4.) place b into the equation

y=-½x + 1

In Happyville, the ideal family has four children, at least two of which are girls. If you randomly select a Happyville family t

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

0.3125 = 31.25% probability that it is not ideal.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each children, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a girl, or they are not. The probability of a child being a girl is independent of any other child. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

0.5 probability of a children being a girl:

This means that $p = 0.5$

If you randomly select a Happyville family that has four children, what is the probability that it is not ideal?

Not ideal is less than two girls, so this is P(X < 2).

Four children means that $n = 4$ . So

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.0625$

$P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.25$

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0625 + 0.25 = 0.3125$

0.3125 = 31.25% probability that it is not ideal.

What is the length of line segment S T if S is at -5,-1 and T is at -1,12? Round to the nearest hundredth.

GuDViN [60]

Distance formula : d = sqrt (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
(-5,-1)(-1,12)

d = sqrt (-1-(-5)^2 + (12 - (-1)^2
d = sqrt (-1 + 5)^2 + (12 + 1)^2
d = sqrt (4^2) + (13^2)
d = sqrt (16 + 169)
d = sqrt 185
d = 13.60 <==
