Answer:

V = 160mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to start from the formula of speed: V=d/t

We have two travels, with and against the wind, both done in the same time.

Clearing t from the formula, we will have: t=d/V2

450miles/V-35mph (speed of the wind is subtracted)

702miles/V+35mph (speed of the wind is subtracted)

Now, we find V:

450miles/V-35mph = 702miles/V+35

450*V+35 = 702*V-35

450V+15,750 = 702V-24,570

702V-450V = 15,750 + 24,570

252V = 40,320

V = 40,320/252

V = 160mph

A survey report states that 70% of adult women visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years. If 20

irakobra [83]

Answer:

a) 0.3921 = 39.21% probability that fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

b) 0.107 = 10.7% probability that at least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each women, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years, or they do not. The probability of a woman visiting their doctor at least once in this period is independent of any other women. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of adult women visit their doctors for a physical examination at least once in two years.

This means that $p = 0.7$

20 adult women

This means that $n = 20$

(a) Fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

This is:

$P(X < 14) = 1 - P(X \geq 14)$

In which

$P(X \geq 14) = P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 14) = C_{20,14}.(0.7)^{14}.(0.3)^{6} = 0.1916$

$P(X = 15) = C_{20,15}.(0.7)^{15}.(0.3)^{5} = 0.1789$

$P(X = 16) = C_{20,16}.(0.7)^{16}.(0.3)^{4} = 0.1304$

$P(X = 17) = C_{20,14}.(0.7)^{17}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.0716$

$P(X = 18) = C_{20,18}.(0.7)^{18}.(0.3)^{2} = 0.0278$

$P(X = 19) = C_{20,19}.(0.7)^{19}.(0.3)^{1} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 20) = C_{20,20}.(0.7)^{20}.(0.3)^{0} = 0.0008$

$P(X \geq 14) = P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) = 0.1916 + 0.1789 + 0.1304 + 0.0716 + 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.6079$

$P(X < 14) = 1 - P(X \geq 14) = 1 - 0.6079 = 0.3921$

0.3921 = 39.21% probability that fewer than 14 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

(b) At least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years

$P(X \geq 17) = P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20)$

From the values found in item (a).

$P(X \geq 17) = P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) = 0.0716 + 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.107$

0.107 = 10.7% probability that at least 17 of them have had a physical examination in the past two years.

Answer:

Erich planted 7 seeds ...

he had to remove 17 plants ....

he expected to have less or equal 46 plants ...

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at keywords like remove ~ => which indicates that something is being subtracted

Since x represents seed packets, and the amount he planted is a number multiplied by x, we can deduce he planted 7 seeds ( 7 * x)

Which expression is equivalent to 15n – 20?

Semenov [28]

The only thing you can do with this expression is to factor a 5 out of the two terms: we have

Finding area of shaded sectors.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

69.81 sq. m. (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sector of a circle is "part" or "portion" of a circle. The formula for the area of a sector is:

$A=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2$

Where

$\theta$ is the central angle

r is the radius

Given the figure, the arc is given as 80 degrees, but not the central angle of the shaded sector. But from geometry we know that the central angle and the intercepted arc have the same measure. So we can say:

$\theta = 80$

Also, the radius of the circle shown is 10 meters, so

r = 10

Now, we substitute in formula and find our answer:

$A=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2\\A=\frac{80}{360}*\pi (10)^2\\A=\frac{2}{9}*100\pi\\A=\frac{200\pi}{9}\\A=69.81$

Thus,

The area of the shaded sector is 69.81 sq. meters.
