Answer:

P=0.1147

Step-by-step explanation:

P(bow tie)=0.03

P(no bow tie)=0.97

n=4

P(at \ least \ one)=1-P(none)\\=1-(1-0.03)^4\\=0.1147

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (6,-4) and a directrix at y= -7
shtirl [24]

Given:

The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).

Directrix at y=-7.

To find:

The equation of the parabola.

Solution:

The general equation of a parabola is:

y=\dfrac{1}{4p}(x-h)^2+k                  ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is vertex, (h,k+p) is the focus and y=k-p is the directrix.

The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).

(h,k+p)=(6,-4)

On comparing both sides, we get

h=6

k+p=-4                            ...(ii)

Directrix at y=-7. So,

k-p=-7                            ...(iii)

Adding (ii) and (iii), we get

2k=-11

k=\dfrac{-11}{2}

k=-5.5

Putting k=-5.5 in (ii), we get

-5.5+p=-4

p=-4+5.5

p=1.5

Putting h=6, k=-5.5,p=1.5 in (i), we get

y=\dfrac{1}{4(1.5)}(x-6)^2+(-5.5)

y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5.

PLEASEEE HELP ITS SUOER EASY IM JUST IM NOT SMART
frozen [14]

Answer:

x must equal 0 or - 10

and y must equal 1 or 6

so its 3 x 0 = 0 plus 6 x 1 = 6

or 3 x -10 = -30 plus 6 x 6 = 36 so -30 plus 36 is 6

Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a diameter of 12 feet a
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The student needs to check all algebraic and mathmatical calculations for errors and typos.  I'm old and have been prone to making mistakes.

Cylinder A DIAMETER 12 ft and Height 13 ft

Cylinder B DIAMETER 10 ft and Height 16 ft

After pumping How much water remains in cylinder A

Volume of a cylinder  =  π(radius)²h is the normal form since they provided the diameter I will use     Volume of a cylinder  =  π(diameter/2)²h

Water remaining in A = Volume of A  - Volume of B   =  

VolA  - VolB  =  π(D for A/2)²H of A  -   π(D for B/2)²H of B

             writing if a little more condensed

VolA  - VolB  =  π(D for A/2)²H of A  -   π(D for B/2)²H of B

    Va - Vb    =   π(Da/2)²Ha  -   π(Db/2)²Hb

                     =  π [(Da²/2²)Ha - (Db²/2²)Hb]      factored out the π

                     =  π/4 [ Da²Ha  - Db²Hb]              factored out the (1/2)²

             I can't think of any other algebraic steps

Va - Vb = Water Remaining in Container A  =  π/4 [ Da²Ha  - Db²Hb]            

            =  π/4 [ (12²)(13)  - (10²)(16)]

            =  π/4 [ (144)(13)  - (100)(16)]

            =  π/4 [ 1872 - 1600 ]

            =  π/4 [272]

            =  π [ 272/4 ]  

            =  π [ 136 / 2]

            =  π [ 68 ]

            =  π (68)

            =  213.6  ft³             rounded to the nearest tenth

I checking my answer by using  V = πr²h         r = d/2

           Va - Vb = π [ra²ha - rb²hb]

                         = π [6²(13)  - 5²(16)]

                         = π [(36)(13) - (25)(16)]

                         = π [ 468 - 400]

                         = 68 π

                         = 213.6 ft³         I got the same answer

       

            =  π
