For what value of c is the rational expression below undefined? x-3/3+x

Adante begins to evaluate the expression 3 1/3 x 5 1/4 using the steps below

il63 [147K]

Answer:

$\frac{35}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to write the mixed fraction as a fractional number, as follows:

$3 1/3 = 3 + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{9+1}{3} = \frac{10}{3}$

$5 1/4 = 5 + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{20+1}{4} = \frac{21}{4}$

Then, evaluating the expression:

$\frac{10}{3}$ × $\frac{21}{4}$ = $\frac{210}{12}$ = $\frac{35}{2}$

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act mandates the tracking and disposal of hazardous waste produced at U.S. facilities. Pr

aniked [119]

Answer:

(a) $E(X) = 0.383$

The expected number in the sample that treats hazardous waste on-site is 0.383.

(b) $P(x = 4) = 0.000169$

There is a 0.000169 probability that 4 of the 10 selected facilities treat hazardous waste on-site.

Step-by-step explanation:

Professional Geographer (Feb. 2000) reported the hazardous waste generation and disposal characteristics of 209 facilities.

N = 209

Only eight of these facilities treated hazardous waste on-site.

r = 8

a. In a random sample of 10 of the 209 facilities, what is the expected number in the sample that treats hazardous waste on-site?

n = 10

The expected number in the sample that treats hazardous waste on-site is given by

$E(X) = \frac{n \times r}{N}$

$E(X) = \frac{10 \times 8}{209}$

$E(X) = \frac{80}{209}$

$E(X) = 0.383$

Therefore, the expected number in the sample that treats hazardous waste on-site is 0.383.

b. Find the probability that 4 of the 10 selected facilities treat hazardous waste on-site

The probability is given by

$P(x = 4) = \frac{\binom{r}{x} \binom{N - r}{n - x}}{\binom{N}{n}}$

For the given case, we have

N = 209

n = 10

r = 8

x = 4

$P(x = 4) = \frac{\binom{8}{4} \binom{209 - 8}{10 - 4}}{\binom{209}{10}}$

$P(x = 4) = \frac{\binom{8}{4} \binom{201}{6}}{\binom{209}{10}}$

$$ P(x = 4) = \frac{70 \times 84944276340}{35216131179263320}$

$P(x = 4) = 0.000169$

Therefore, there is a 0.000169 probability that 4 of the 10 selected facilities treat hazardous waste on-site.

A camper wants to know the width of a river. From point A, he walks downstream 60 feet to point B and sights a canoe across the

Anarel [89]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is:

D. 40 feet.

To solve the problem and calculate the width of the river, we need to assume that the distance from A to B and the angle formed between that distance and the distance from A to the other point (C) is equal to 90°, meaning that we are working with a right triangle, also, we need to use the given angle which is equal to 34°. So, to solve the problem we can use the following trigonometric relation:

$Tan\alpha =\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

Where,

alpha is the given angle, 34°

Adjacent is the distance from A to B, which is equal to 60 feet.

Opposite is the distance from A to C which is also equal to the width of the river.

So, substituting and calculating we have:

$Tan(34\°) =\frac{Width}{60ft}$

$Width=60ft*Tan(34\°)=60ft*0.67=40.2ft=40ft$

Hence, we have that the correct option is:

D. 40 feet.

Have a nice day!

The capacity of a small children’s swimming pool is 106 gallons of water. There are currently 15 gallons of water in the pool. Y

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1. y=2x+15

2. 45.5 min

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You find 2x by looking at the give rate of gallons (2) a min (x). This information is given in the word problem. This gives the equation of y=2x. But you already have 15 gallons in the pool, so you need to add the +15 at the end of the equation giving you y=2x+15.

2. Y is the total gallons. This is 106 gallons (given in the word problem). We are trying to solve for x (# of minutes to fill the pool). 106=2x+15. subtract 15 from both sides giving 91=2x. Divide both sides by 2 giving x=45.5. It will take 45.5 minutes to fill up the pool.
