Answer:

Length: 25, Width: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be represented by w. We can then assume that the length is equivalent to 3w+4

So, we can set the equation 2(3w+4)+2(w). Simplify to 8w+8=64

Simplify the equation and solve for w, which is 7

Plug into the the length, which is 3w+4

Answer:

Length: 25 inches

Width: 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

Length: 3w + 4

Width: w

64 = 2(3w + 4) + 2w

64 = 6w + 8 + 2w

64 = 8w + 8

56 = 8w

w = 7

Length: 3(7) + 4 = 25

Width: 7

Which of the following is an equation of the line through (2,3) and (-1,-12)

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

y = 5x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation of a line with two points

y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1

Giving two points

( -4 , 10)(16 , -2)

x_1 = -4

y_1 = 10

x_2 = 16

y_2 = -2

Using the above formula

y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1

-12 - 3 / -1 - 2 = y - 3 / x - 2

-15/-3 = y - 3 /x - 2

Cross multiply

-15(x - 2) = -3(y - 3)

-15x + 30 = -3y + 9

-15x + 30 + 3y - 9 = 0

-15x +30 - 9 + 3y = 0

-15x + 21 + 3y = 0

3y = 15x - 21 ( following y = mx + C

Dividing through by 3 to find y

3y/3 = 15x -21 / 3

y = 15x - 21 / 3

We can still separate

y = 15x / 3 - 21/3

y = 5x - 7

Therefore, the equation of the line is

y = 5x - 7

Suppose that the probability of a baseball player getting a hit in an at-bat is 0.3089. If the player has 25 at-bats during a we

klio [65]

Answer:

$P(X>9) = 0.3593$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=25, p=0.3089)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X >9)$

And we can use the complement rule like this:

$P(X>9) = 1-P(X \leq 8)= 1-[P(X=0) + P(X=1) +....+P(X=8)]$ And we can find the individual probabilities like this:

$P(X=0) =(25C0)(0.3089)^0 (1-0.3089)^{25-0} =0.0000974$

$P(X=1) =(25C1)(0.3089)^1 (1-0.3089)^{25-1} =0.0011$

$P(X=2) =(25C2)(0.3089)^2 (1-0.3089)^{25-2}=0.00584$

$P(X=3) =(25C3)(0.3089)^3 (1-0.3089)^{25-3}= 0.02$

$P(X=4) =(25C4)(0.3089)^4 (1-0.3089)^{25-4}=0.049$

$P(X=5) =(25C5)(0.3089)^5 (1-0.3089)^{25-5}=0.092$

$P(X=6)=(25C6) (0.3089)^6 (1-0.3089)^{25-6} = 0.138$

$P(X=7) =(25C7)(0.3089)^7 (1-0.3089)^{25-7}=0.167$

$P(X=8) =(25C8)(0.3089)^8 (1-0.3089)^{25-8}=0.168$

And in order to do the operations we can use the following excel code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(8,25,0.3089,TRUE)"

And we got:

$P(X>9) = 0.3593$

You can prove someone is lying by taking a video of it
