Answer:
66.76% probability that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each year, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a levee fails during the year, or no levees fail. In each year, the probabilities of levees failing are independent from each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.
In this problem we have that:
A levee was designed to protect against floods with an annual exceedance probability of 0.02. This means that 
What is the risk that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years?
This is
when
. So


66.76% probability that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years.
You’d be going 70 miles every hour
Pretend to (or actually) cut out the given image, stick a pin in point P so it cannot move, and rotate the cutout up and to the left around point P about 1/8 of the way around the circle. The result of doing that is the picture you're looking for.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
here (h, k) = (2, - 4), thus
y = a(x - 2)² - 4
To find a substitute (- 3, - 3) into the equation
- 3 = a(- 3 - 2)² - 4
- 3 = 25a - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )
1 = 25a ( divide both sides by 25 ), hence
a = 
y =
(x - 2)² - 4 ← in vertex form
=
(x² - 4x + 4) - 4 ← in expanded form
Hence the coefficient of the x² term is
