A square has two sides on the lines x = 3 and y = 1. It has a vertex at (12,-8). What is the perimeter, in units, of the square?

1 answer:

3 0

The point (12,-8) has the x coordinate of x = 12
Going from x = 3 to x = 12 is a distance of 9 since 12-3 = 9

Therefore this square has a side length of 9 units
There are 4 of these congruent (same length) sides, so 4*9 = 36 is the perimeter

Answer: B) 36
Note: you can use the y coordinate if you want. The distance from y = 1 to y = -8 is also 9 units because 1-(-8) = 1+8 = 9

Llana [10]

Answer:

The probability that seven or more of them used their phones for guidance on purchasing decisions is 0.7886.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

What should I buy? A study conducted by a research group in a recent year reported that 57% of cell phone owners used their phones inside a store for guidance on purchasing decisions. A sample of 14 cell phone owners is studied. Round the answers to at least four decimal places. What is the probability that seven or more of them used their phones for guidance on purchasing decisions?

We can model this as a binomial random variable, with p=0.57 and n=14.

$P(x=k)=\dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}$

a) We have to calculate the probability that seven or more of them used their phones for guidance on purchasing decisions:

$P(x\geq7)=\sum_{k=7}^{14}P(x=k)\\\\\\$

$P(x=7)=\dbinom{14}{7} p^{7}q^{7}=3432*0.0195*0.0027=0.1824\\\\\\P(x=8) = \dbinom{14}{8} p^{8}q^{6}=3003*0.0111*0.0063=0.2115\\\\\\P(x=9) = \dbinom{14}{9} p^{9}q^{5}=2002*0.0064*0.0147=0.1869\\\\\\P(x=10) = \dbinom{14}{10} p^{10}q^{4}=1001*0.0036*0.0342=0.1239\\\\\\P(x=11) = \dbinom{14}{11} p^{11}q^{3}=364*0.0021*0.0795=0.0597\\\\\\P(x=12) = \dbinom{14}{12} p^{12}q^{2}=91*0.0012*0.1849=0.0198\\\\\\P(x=13) = \dbinom{14}{13} p^{13}q^{1}=14*0.0007*0.43=0.004\\\\\\$

$P(x=14) = \dbinom{14}{14} p^{14}q^{0}=1*0.0004*1=0.0004\\\\\\$

$P(x\geq7)=0.1824+0.2115+0.1869+0.1239+0.0597+0.0198+0.004+0.0004\\\\P(x\geq7)=0.7886$
