What is a rational number?

Mathematics

Any number that can be rewritten as a simple fraction is a rational number. This means that natural numbers, whole numbers and integers, like 5, are all part of the set of rational numbers as well because they can be written as fractions, as are mixed numbers like 1 ½.

In a certain city district the need for money to buy drugs is stated as the reason for 70% of all thefts. Find the probability t
torisob [31]

Answer:

9.72% probability that among the next 7 theft cases reported in this district, exactly 3 of them resulted from the need to buy drugs.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each theft, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the need to buy drugs is the reason of the theft, or it is not. Each theft is independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

In a certain city district the need for money to buy drugs is stated as the reason for 70% of all thefts.

This means that p = 0.7

Find the probability that among the next 7 theft cases reported in this district, exactly 3 of them resulted from the need to buy drugs.

This is P(X = 3) when n = 7. So

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

P(X = 3) = C_{7,3}.(0.7)^{3}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.0972

9.72% probability that among the next 7 theft cases reported in this district, exactly 3 of them resulted from the need to buy drugs.

The measure of two opposite interior angles of a triangle are and. The exterior angle of the0x−14x+4triangle measures. Solve for
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Restructured question:

The measure of two opposite interior angles of a triangle are x−14 and x+4. The exterior angle of the triangle measures 3x-45 . Solve for the measure of the exterior angle.

First you must know that the sum of interior angle of a triangle is equal to the exterior angle

Interior angles = x−14 and x+4

Sum of interior angles = x-14 + x + 4

Sum of interior angles = 2x - 10

Exterior angle = 3x - 45

Equating both:

2x - 10 = 3x - 45

Collect like terms;

2x - 3x = -45 + 10

-x = -35

x = 35

Get the exterior angle:

Exterior angle =   3x - 45

Exterior angle = 3(35) - 45

Exterior angle = 105 - 45

Exterior angle = 60

Hence the measure of the exterior angle is 60 degrees

<em>Note that the functions of the interior and exterior angles are assumed. Same calculation can be employed for any function given</em>
