Irina18 [472]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use equation

20000-16000=4000

20000:100=4000 :x

x20000=400000

x=400000/20000

x=20 %

We are throwing darts on a disk-shaped board of radius 5. We assume that the proposition of the dart is a uniformly chosen point
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times is 0.0113

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Binomial distribution

We find the probability of hitting the dart on the disk

⇒ Area of small disk / Area of bigger disk

⇒ πR₁² / πR₂²

given that; disk-shaped board of radius R² = 5, disk-shaped bullseye with radius R₁ = 1

so we substitute

⇒ π(1)² / π(5)² = π/π25 = 1/25 = 0.04

Since we have to hit the disk 2000 times, we represent the number of times the smaller disk ( BULLSEYE ) will be hit by X.

so

X ~ Bin( 2000, 0.04 )

n = 2000

p = 0.04

np = 2000 × 0.04 = 80

Using central limit theorem;

X ~ N( np, np( 1 - p ) )

we substitute

X ~ N( 80, 80( 1 - 0.04 ) )

X ~ N( 80, 80( 0.96 ) )

X ~ N( 80, 76.8 )

So, the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times, P( X ≥ 100 ) will be;

we covert to standard normal variable

⇒ P( X ≥  \frac{100-80}{\sqrt{76.8} } )

⇒ P( X ≥ 2.28217 )

From standard normal distribution table

P( X ≥ 2.28217 ) = 0.0113

Therefore, the probability that we hit the bullseye at least 100 times is 0.0113

The population of mosquitoes in a certain area increases at a rate proportional to the current population, and in the absence of
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial number of mosquitoes is 400000, and they double each day. This represents an exponential growth equation. If t represent days and P represent the population of the mosquitoes, hence this can be represented by the equation:

P=400000(2^t)

Also, the predators eat the mosquitoes at a rate of 40,000 mosquitoes/day. This means that each day, the mosquitoes reduce by 40000t, therefore this can be represented by:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t

Which of the following represents 3x-5y+10=0 written in slope-intercept form?
taurus [48]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: Is the slope

b: Is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have the following equation:

3x-5y + 10 = 0

We manipulate algebraically:

We subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

3x-5y = -10

We subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:

-5y = -3x-10

We multiply by -1 on both sides of the equation:

5y = 3x + 10

We divide between 5 on both sides of the equation:

y = \frac {3} {5} x + \frac {10} {5}\\y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2

Thus, the equation in the slope-intercept form is y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2

Answer:

y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2
