4.20. According to a report released by the National Center for Health Statistics, 51% of U.S. households has only cell phones (

no land line). According to the FCC, nearly 70% of the U.S. households have high-speed Internet. Suppose of the U.S. households having only cell phones, 80% have high-speed Internet. A U.S household is randomly selected. a. What is the probability that the household has only cell phones and has high-speed Internet

Answer:

The probability that the household has only cell phones and has high-speed Internet is 0.408

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that represents U.S. households has only cell phones

Let B be the event that represents U.S. households have high-speed Internet.

We are given that 51% of U.S. households has only cell phones

P(A)=0.51

We are given that 70% of the U.S. households have high-speed Internet.

P(B)=0.7

We are given that U.S. households having only cell phones, 80% have high-speed Internet. A U.S household is randomly selected.

P(B|A)=0.8

$\frac{P(A\capB)}{P(A)}=0.8\\P(A\capB)=0.8 \times P(A)\\P(A\capB)=0.8 \times 0.51\\P(A\capB)=0.408$

Hence the probability that the household has only cell phones and has high-speed Internet is 0.408

Answer:

The area of the shaded portion of the figure is $9.1\ cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The shaded area is equal to the area of the square less the area not shaded.

There are 4 "not shaded" regions.

step 1

Find the area of square ABCD

The area of square is equal to

$A=b^2$

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

$b=4\ cm$

substitute

$A=4^2=16\ cm^2$

step 2

We can find the area of 2 "not shaded" regions by calculating the area of the square less two semi-circles (one circle):

The area of circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

The diameter of the circle is equal to the length side of the square

so

$r=\frac{b}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2\ cm$ ---> radius is half the diameter

substitute

$A=\pi (2)^{2}$

$A=4\pi\ cm^2$

Therefore, the area of 2 "not-shaded" regions is:

$A=(16-4\pi) \ cm^2$

and the area of 4 "not-shaded" regions is:

$A=2(16-4\pi)=(32-8\pi)\ cm^2$

step 3

Find the area of the shaded region

Remember that the area of the shaded region is the area of the square less 4 "not shaded" regions:

so

$A=16-(32-8\pi)=(8\pi-16)\ cm^2$

---> exact value

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(8(3.14)-16)=9.1\ cm^2$

PLEASE HELP! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!

Answer:

The y-intercept is (0,1). The x values at the horiz. intercepts are:

{ (-3+√5)/2, (-3-√5)/2 }. Graph is that of a parabola that opens down.

Step-by-step explanation:

It'd be helpful to rewrite f(x) = 3-x2+3x-2 with the powers of x in descending order and using " ^ " to denote exponentiation:

f(x) = -x^2 + 3x -2 + 3, or

f(x) = -x^2 + 3x + 1

y-intercept: let x = 0. Then f(0) = 1. The y-intercept is (0,1)

x-intercepts: let y = f(x) = 0 = -x^2 + 3x + 1. Let's use the quadratic formula with a = -1, b = 3 and c = 1 to determine the roots of this polynomial. The discriminant, b^2-4ac, is 9-4(1)(1), or 5.

Thus, there are two real, unequal roots. They are:

-3 plus or minus √5

x = ---------------------------------

2

or { (-3+√5)/2, (-3-√5)/2 }

These are your two horizontal intercepts, where the function is zero.

Because the coefficient -1 of the x^2 term is negative, the parabola representing this function opens down.

Which names are correct for FM−→− ?

fiasKO [112]

Answer with explanation:

⇒A segment , $\Bar {AB}$ is equivalent to $\Bar {BA}$ .

⇒We can assert this by this way, if Distance between Two points A and B is 6 unit, then Distance between B and A will be 6 unit also.

So,

$\bar{FM}=\bar{MF}$

FM−→−⇒MF−→−
