3/4 * 3.60 = 2.7
2.7 / 1.5 = 1.8

answer: 3/4 of a pound of apples cost $1.80

3.6/3=1.2*2=2.4 which is what 1 lb is equal to than you multiple by 34=81.6

According to data from the state blood program, 40 percent of all individuals have group A blood. If six individuals give blood,

Serjik [45]

Answer: 0.27648

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The proportion of all individuals have group A blood : p=0.040

Total individuals give blood : n= 6

Let X be the number of individuals have group A blood.

Since all individual are independent of each other.

$X\sim Bin(n=6, p=0.40)$

Formula : $P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where n= sample size , p = probability of getting success in each trial.

The probability that exactly three of the individuals have group A blood. :

$P(x=3)= ^6C_3(0.40)^3(1-0.4)^3\\\\= \dfrac{6!}{3!3!}\times(0.40)^3(0.60)^3\\\\=0.27648$

The probability that exactly three of the individuals have group A blood. is 0.27648

Please help with this!!! Im so confused, I will mark brainliest if right!! Explain

devlian [24]

Answer: Yes these triangles are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets write down what we know just to make life easier

x=9

TL should be similar to CH

LY should be similar to KH

The angles should be equal due to SAS

So the first thing we know is true is the fact that they have equal angles. Now we have to find out if the sides are similar or if they change by the same ratio to the other. If TL is similar to CH and TL=25 and CH=10 what is the change in size or dilation. Division should do the trick so 25/10=2.5 so TY is greater than CH by a factor of 10. Which means that LY should also be greater than KH by a factor of 2.5. If we are told that x=9 than side LY or 4(9)-1=35 and KH 9+5=14

So side KH is 14 and LY is 35. Now to check if they are similar then KH should be greater by a factor of 2.5. If this is not true than the sides are not similar. 35/2.5=14

Since 35 divided by 2.5 is 14 we can tell both sides TL and LY are greater than KH and CH by a factor of 2.5

Hope this helps.

It has a time to failure distribution which is normal with a mean of 35,000 vehicle miles and a standard deviation of 7,000 vehi

Triss [41]

Answer:

The designed life should be of 21,840 vehicle miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 35,000 vehicle miles and a standard deviation of 7,000 vehicle miles.

This means that $\mu = 35000, \sigma = 7000$

Find its designed life if a .97 reliability is desired.

The designed life should be the 100 - 97 = 3rd percentile(we want only 3% of the vehicles to fail within this time), which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.03, so X when Z = -1.88.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-1.88 = \frac{X - 35000}{7000}$

$X - 35000 = -1.88*7000$

$X = 21840$

The designed life should be of 21,840 vehicle miles.

How many degrees is angle “X”?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

The answr is 102 degrees. Here's why

Step-by-step explanation:

The square means the angle is 90 degrees. Therefore, for the big triangle, we already know 2 of the degrees, 50 and 90. A triangle's degrees add up to 180. 50+90=140. 180-140=40. This means the top angle is 40. Now finding X is easy, because we already know the other 2 points in the triangle, which are 38 and 40. Add those up, you get 78. 180-78=102, your answer. The triangle is 102 degrees.
