Answer:

The probability that a plant had white flowers is 0.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

Number of plants with white flowers=769

Number of plants with purple flowers= 326

To Find:

The probability that a plant had white flowers is=?

Solution:

Total number of flowers plants = Number of plants with white flower + Number of plants with purple flowers

Total number of flowers plants = 769+ 326

Total number of flowers plants = 1095

Probability that the plant had white flowers  = \frac{769}{1095}

Probability that the plant had white flowers  =0.70

Probability that the plant had purple flowers  = \frac{326}{1095}

Probability that the plant had purple flowers  = 0.29

Bacteria vary somewhat in size, but a diameter of 1.5 μ m is not unusual.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

a) 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³ or 1.8 × 10^-12 cubic meters

b) 7.1 × 10^-6 mm² or 7.1 × 10^-6 square millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We are assuming that the shape of the bacteria is a sphere.

Hence, Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³

Diameter = 1.5 μm

Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2

= 0.75μm

We are told that the volume should be in cubic centimeters

Converting 0.75μm to centimeters

1 μm = 1 × 10^-4 cm

0.75 μm =

Cross Multiply

= 0.75 μm × 1 × 10^-4 cm/ 1 μm

= 0.000075cm

Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³

= 4/3 × π × (0.000075)³

= 1.767145867 × 10^-12 cm³

Approximately as 2 significant figures = 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³

b) The formula for the Surface area of a Sphere = 4πr²

Diameter = 1.5 μm

Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2

= 0.75μm

We are told that the surface area should be in square millimeters

Converting 0.75μm to millimeters

1 μm = 0.001 mm

0.75 μm =

Cross Multiply

= 0.75 μm ×0.001mm/ 1 μm

= 0.00075mm

Surface Area of a Sphere

= 4 × π × r²

= 4 × π × 0.00075²

= 7.06858 ×10^-6 mm²

Approximately to 2 significant figures

= 7.1 × 10^-6 mm²

Occasionally an airline will lose a bag. Suppose a small airline has found it can reasonably model the number of bags lost each
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a) The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108

b) The probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227

c) I would recommend taking a Poisson model with mean 4.4 instead of a Poisson model with mean 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function of X, for which we denote the amount of bags lost next monday is given by this formula

P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^k }{k!}

a)

P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^0 }{0!} = 0.1108

The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108.

b) Note that P(X \in \{0,1,2\} = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) . And

P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) = e^{-2.2} * (1 + 2.2 + 2.2^2/2) = 0.6227

Therefore, the probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227.

c) If the double of flights are taken, then you at least should expect to loose a similar proportion in bags, because you will have more chances for a bag to be lost. WIth this in mind, we can correctly think that the average amount of bags that will be lost each day will double. Thus, i would double the mean of the Poisson model, in other words, i would take a Poisson model with mean 4.4, instead of 2.2.

What is the value of minus 6 x cubed minus y squared minus 3 x y if if x = -2 and y = 4
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Well, "minus 6 x cubed minus y squared minus 3 x y" translates to:

-6x^{2} -y^{2} -3xy

Then, if we insert the values for x and y, we get:

-6(-2)^{2} -(4)^{2} -3(-2)(4)

When we distribute and multiply:

144-16-24

And once we combine like terms:

104<em> is the answer</em>
