Answer:

Harry is 2, Jim is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The first statement tells us they are 4 years part. Then you need to find two numbers that are 4 apart and that has one that is half the other, like 4 and 8. Finally, subtract two because this will happen in two years and you need their ages now.

Sorry if this was confusing.

A levee was designed to protect against floods with an annual exceedance probability of 0.02. A larger flood would cause the lev
LuckyWell [14K]

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.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

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

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

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 p = 0.02

What is the risk that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years?

This is P(X = 0) when n = 20. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}*(0.02)^{0}*.(0.98)^{20} = 0.6676

66.76% probability that the levee will NEVER fail in the next 20 years.

Select the image below
Georgia [21]

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.

The vertex of this parabola is at (2,-4). When the y-value is -3, the x-value is
Fed [463]

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 = \frac{1}{25}

y = \frac{1}{25} (x - 2)² - 4 ← in vertex form

  = \frac{1}{25} (x² - 4x + 4) - 4 ← in expanded form

Hence the coefficient of the x² term is \frac{1}{25}
