Answer:

The area of the kite is $56\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the kite is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}(D1*D2)$

where

D1 and D2 are the diagonals of the kite

we have

$D1=4+4=8\ cm$

$D2=10+4=14\ cm$

Find the area

$A=\frac{1}{2}(8*14)=56\ cm^{2}$

Answer:

a) 59.34%

b) 44.82%

c) 26.37%

d) 4.19%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

There are in total 4+5+6 = 15 bulbs. If we want to select 3 randomly there are K ways of doing this, where K is the combination of 15 elements taken 3 at a time

$K=\binom{15}{3}=\frac{15!}{3!(15-3)!}=\frac{15!}{3!12!}=\frac{15.14.13}{6}=455$

As there are 9 non 75-W bulbs, by the fundamental rule of counting, there are 6*5*9 = 270 ways of selecting 3 bulbs with exactly two 75-W bulbs.

So, the probability of selecting exactly 2 bulbs of 75 W is

$\frac{270}{455}=0.5934=59.34\%$

(b)

The probability of selecting three 40-W bulbs is

$\frac{4*3*2}{455}=0.0527=5.27\%$

The probability of selecting three 60-W bulbs is

$\frac{5*4*3}{455}=0.1318=13.18\%$

The probability of selecting three 75-W bulbs is

$\frac{6*5*4}{455}=0.2637=26.37\%$

Since the events are disjoint, the probability of taking 3 bulbs of the same kind is the sum 0.0527+0.1318+0.2637 = 0.4482 = 44.82%

(c)

There are 6*5*4 ways of selecting one bulb of each type, so the probability of selecting 3 bulbs of each type is

$\frac{6*5*4}{455}=0.2637=26.37\%$

(d)

The probability that it is necessary to examine at least six bulbs until a 75-W bulb is found, supposing there is no replacement, is the same as the probability of taking 5 bulbs one after another without replacement and none of them is 75-W.

As there are 15 bulbs and 9 of them are not 75-W, the probability a non 75-W bulb is $\frac{9}{15}=0.6$
