Answer:

Probability that a 20- cubic foot block of wood has at most 1 knot P (X<=1) = 0.5918

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of knot= 1.4

Wavelength = 1.4

Geometric probability is given by:

P(X= K) = wavelength ^k × e^-wavelegth

P(X=0) = (1.4^0 × e^-1.4)/0!

P(X=0) = 1 × 0.2466 = 0.2466

P(X=1) = 1.4^1 × e^-1.4

P(X=1)= 1.4×0.2466= 0.3452

P(X<=1)= P(X=0) + P(X=1)

P(X<=1) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 = 0.5918

Polygons ABCD and EFGH are similar. What is the perimeter of EFGH?
Rom4ik [11]
If polygons ABCD and EFGH are similar, then their perimeters most likely are also similar. Polygon EFGH also have the same perimeter with polygon ABCD. Having similar polygons is referred as congruent polygons. <span>Two figures are said to be congruent when they have the same shape and size or if one object is a mirror image of the other object.<span> </span></span>

-2.105 as a fraction?
Bezzdna [24]
The easiest way is if it doesn't need to be simplified. Multiply -2.105 by \frac{1000}{1000}. You get the fraction -\frac{2105}{1000}. While this is technically the answer, you can simplify this down to \frac{421}{200}. Because 421 is a prime number, this can not be simplified any further. Therefore, the solution is \frac{421}{200}.

\frac{421}{200}.

A spinner has eight equals sized sections six of which are gray and two of which are blue. The spinner is spun twice. What is th
Anvisha [2.4K]
Each spin is independent of the other spin.
The probability of two independent events happening is the product of the individual probabilities.

6 gray; 2 blue; 8 total
p(gray) = 6/8 = 3/4
p(blue) = 2/8 = 1/4

p(blue then gray) = p(blue) * p(gray) = 1/4 * 3/4 = 3/16
