The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Samir is an expert marksman. When he takes aim at a particular target on the shooting range, there is a 0.95 probability that he will hit it. One day, Samir decides to attempt to hit  10 such targets in a row.

Assuming that Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets, what is the probability that he will miss at least one of them?

Answer:

40.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'A' be the event of not missing a target in 10 attempts.

Therefore, the complement of event 'A' is \overline A=\textrm{Missing a target at least once}

Now, Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets. Therefore, probability of hitting each target each time is same and equal to 0.95.

Now, P(A)=0.95^{10}=0.5987

We know that the sum of probability of an event and its complement is 1.

So, P(A)+P(\overline A)=1\\\\P(\overline A)=1-P(A)\\\\P(\overline A)=1-0.5987\\\\P(\overline A)=0.4013=40.13\%

Therefore, the probability of missing a target at least once in 10 attempts is 40.13%.

The system of equations below represents the measures of 2 angles created by the diagonal of a rectangle: x + y = 90 y =1/5 What
madreJ [45]

Answer:

The larger of the two angles is x, which is 75. y is the smaller angle at 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find these, we can use our solved value for y in the second equation to plug into the first equation. This method is called substitution.

x + y = 90

x + (1/5x) = 90

1.2x = 90

x = 75

Now we can plug that value into either equation to find y

y = 1/5x

y = 1/5(75)

y = 15

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Final graph is attached.

Solution is x=2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have to solve by graphing to let's graph y=2x-1 first.

we are free to plug any number for x say x=0 and x=2

when x=0 then y=2x-1 changes to

y=2(0)-1=0-1=-1

Hence point is (0,-1)

Similarly

when x=2 then y=2x-1 changes to

y=2(2)-1=4-1=3

Hence point is (2,3).

Now we graph both points (0,-1) and (2,3) then join them by a straight line.


We repeat exactly same process for other line y=-x+5 and get points (0,5) and (2,3)

Now graph both to see the intersection point of both lines

We see that both lines intersect at point (2,3)

<u>Hence final answer is (2,3) or we can also write x=2, y=3.</u>
