white : milk : dark

w : m : d

The ratio of white to not white is 3:4

w : (m+d) = 3:4

The ratio of not dark to dark is 17:4.

(w+m) : d = 17:4

---------

We treat the colons as fraction bars and cross multiply.

4w = 3(m+d) = 3m + 3d

4w + 4m = 17 d

Subtracting,

4m = 17d - (3m+3d) = 14d - 3m

7m = 14 d

m/d = 14/7

m:d = 2:1

Since w:(m+d)=3:4 let's make m+d a multiple of 4.

m:d = 8:4

w : (m+d) = 3:4 = 9:12

w:m:d = 9:8:4

Answer: 9:8:4

Check:

white to non white 9 to 8+4=12 = 3:4, good

non dark to dark (9+8):4=17:4, good

Answer:

Option (A) 0.40951

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(target) = 0.90

Let the random variable X represent the number of times he hits ring of the target with a shot of the arrow.

The probability distribution of X is

   x:         0              1                2               3               4               5

P(x):    0.00001   0.00045  0.00810   0.07290   0.32805   0.59049

The mean of discrete probability distribution is given by:

\mu = \displaystyle\sum x_iP(x_i)\\\\= 0(0.00001) + 1(0.00045) + 2(0.00810) + 3(0.07290) + 4(0.32805) + 5( 0.59049)\\= 4.5

Now, we have to evaluate

P(x

Option (A) 0.40951 t is the probability that the number of times Luke will hit the inner ring of the target out of the 5 attempts is less than the mean of X.

Anika [276]
If c = 8 and d = -5:

a) c - 3 = 8 - 3
= 5

b) 15 - c = 15 - 8
= 7

c) 3(c + d) = 3(8 + (-5))
= 3*3
= 9

d) 2c - 4d = 2(8) - 4(-5)
= 16 + 20
= 36

e) d - c^2 = -5 - (8)^2
= -5 - 64
= -69

f) 2d^2 + 5d = 2(-5)^2 + 5(-5)
= 50 - 25
= 25

Find the circumference of the circles below. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use 3.14 for Pi.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{1.\ C\approx38cm;\ 2.\ C\approx57ft;\ 3.\ C\approx50in.}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a circumference of a circle:

C=2\pi r\\\\r-\text{radius}

1.\\r=6cm\\\\C=2\pi\cdot6=12\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx12\cdot3.14=37.68\approx38(cm)\\\\2.\\r=9ft\\\\C=2\pi\cdot9=18\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx18\cdot3.14=56.52\approx57(ft)\\\\3.\\2r=16in.\to r=8in.\\\\C=2\pi\cdot8=16\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx16\cdot3.14=50.24\approx50(in.)
