find 40% of 60 using two different strageties, one of which must include a pictorial model or digram?pls help

igor_vitrenko [27]

One way would be to convert 40% into a fraction and multiply.

40% = 2/5

2/5 * 60 = 24

Drawing a diagram could involve drawing a whole (etc. a circle) and dividing it into fifths, then shading 2 of it with each section representing 12. Hope this helps!<span />

53% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

$P(X = 5) = 0.2423$

$P( X \ge 6 )= 0.4516$

$P( X < 4 )= 0.12694$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is p = 0.53

The sample size is n = 10

Generally the distribution of the confidence of US adults in newspapers follows a binomial distribution

i.e

$X \~ \ \ \ B(n , p)$

and the probability distribution function for binomial distribution is

$P(X = x) = ^{n}C_x * p^x * (1- p)^{n-x}$

Here C stands for combination hence we are going to be making use of the combination function in our calculators

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is exactly five is mathematically represented as

$P(X = 5) = ^{10}C_5 * 0.53^5 * (1- 0.53)^{10-5}$

=> $P(X = 5) = 252 * 0.04182 * 0.023$

=> $P(X = 5) = 0.2423$

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least six is mathematically represented as

$P( X \ge 6 )= P( X = 6) + P( X = 7) + P( X = 8) + P( X = 9) + P( X = 10)$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= [^{10}C_6 * [0.53]^6 * (1- 0.53)^{10-6}] + [^{10}C_7 * [0.53]^7 * (1- 0.53)^{10-7}] + [^{10}C_8 * [0.53]^8 * (1- 0.53)^{10-8}] + [^{10}C_9 * [0.53]^9 * (1- 0.53)^{10-9}] + [^{10}C_{10} * [0.53]^{10} * (1- 0.53)^{10-10}]$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= [0.227] + [0.1464] + [0.0619] + [0.0155] + [0.00082]$

=> $P( X \ge 6 )= 0.4516$

Generally the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than four is mathematically represented as

$P( X < 4 )= P( X = 3) + P( X = 2) + P( X = 1) + P( X = 0)$

=> $P( X < 4 )= [^{10}C_3 * 0.53^3 * (1- 0.53)^{10-3}] + [^{10}C_2 * 0.53^2 * (1- 0.53)^{10-2}] + [^{10}C_1 * 0.53^1 * (1- 0.53)^{10-1}] + [^{10}C_0 * 0.53^0 * (1- 0.53)^{10-0}]$

=> $P( X < 4 )= 0.09051 + 0.03 + 0.0059 + 0.000526$

=> $P( X < 4 )= 0.12694$

A rectangular computer monitor is measured by the length and width of its display resolution. Three different monitors are descr

Anna [14]

Answer: Monitors A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

The similar monitors based on display resolution are those with similar ratios.

Take the ratios to their simplest forms to see which are similar.

Monitor A

= 640 : 480

= 16 : 12

= 4 : 3

Monitor B

= 800 : 600

= 8 : 6

= 4 : 3

Monitor C

= 1,280 : 800

= 32 : 20

= 8 : 5

<em>Monitors A and B are similar as they have the same display ratio. </em>

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

5.4

Explanation:

a²+b²=c²
