The ratio ...

... seniors : juniors = 3 : 2

can be multiplied by 7 to get

... = 21 : 14

indicating there are 14 juniors for the 21 seniors in the choir.

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y =3x-2 and that passes through the point(-9,5)
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

y = -1/3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, the signs of the slope must be opposite and the slopes are reciprocals.

(basically if one is say -2/3, the other is 3/2. just flip it upside down)

So this slope is 3, so the new slope should be -1/3

The equation is now y = -1/3x + b

To find b, substitute (-9,5) in the equation

y = -1/3x + b

5 = -1/3(9) + b

5 = -3 + b

8 = b

So the equation is y = -1/3x + b

Ship collisions in the Houston Ship Channel are rare. Suppose the number of collisions are Poisson distributed, with a mean of 1
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

a) \simeq 0.3012   b) \simeq 0.0494 c) \simeq 0.2438

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of collision,

1.2 collisions every 4 months

or, \frac{1.2}{4}

= 0.3 collisions per  month

So, the Poisson distribution for the random variable no. of collisions per month (X) is given by,

          P(X =x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}\times {\lambda}^{x}}}{x!}


                                                           for x ∈ N ∪ {0}

                       =  0 otherwise --------------------------------------(1)

here, \lambda = 0.3 collision / month

No collision over a 4 month period means no collision per month or X =0

Putting X = 0 in (1) we get,

         P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.3}\times {\0.3}^{0}}{0!}


                      \simeq 0.7408182207 ------------------------------------(2)

Now, since we are calculating  this for 4 months,

so, P(No collision in 4 month period)

     =0.7408182207^{4}

     \simeq 0.3012  -----------------------------------------------------------(3)

2 collision in 2 month period means 1 collision per month or X =1

Putting X =1 in (1) we get,

           P(X =1) = \frac{e^{-0.3}\times {\0.3}^{1}}{1!}


                      \simeq 0.2222454662 ------------------------------------(4)

Now, since we are calculating this for 2 months, so ,

P(2 collisions in 2 month period)

                =0.2222454662^{2}

                \simeq 0.0494 -----------------------------------------(5)

1 collision in 6 months period means

                                \frac{1}{6} collision per month

Now, P(1 collision in 6 months period)

= P( X = 1/6]  (which is to be estimated)

=\frac {P(X=0)\times 5 + P(X =1)\times 1}{6}

= \frac {0.7408182207 \times 5 + 0.2222454662 \times 1}{6}[/tex]

\simeq 0.6543894283-------------------------------------------(6)

So,

P(1  collision in 6 month period)

  =  0.6543894283^{6}

   \simeq 0.0785267444 ------------------------------------------------(7)

So,

P(No collision in 6 months period)

  = (P(X =0)^{6}

   \simeq 0.1652988882 ---------------------------------(8)

so,

P(1 or fewer collision in 6 months period)

= (8) + (7 ) = 0.0785267444 +0.1652988882

\simeq  0.2438 ---------------------------------------------(9)

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A=120

C=20

Total area=160 cm2

This is really weird because the numbers dont look proportional to the shape but according to the data it should be correct :/
