Answer:

116°F = 46.67 °C and 6 Pounds = 2721.55 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given in the question is 1°F = -17.22°C

1 Kilogram = 1000 grams = 2.2 pounds

And we have to convert 116° F to degrees Celsius and Six pounds to grams.

1) We know (°F-32)×5/9 =°C

So by putting the value of °F as 116 ⇒ (116-32)×5÷9 = °C

⇒ °C = \frac{(84)(5)}{9}

⇒ °C = 46.67

2). ∵ 2.2 Pounds = 1000 grams

     ∴1 Pound = 1000/2.2 = 454.54 grams

    ∴ 6 pounds = 6× 454.54 grams

                        = 2721.55 grams

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

a) 0.1423

b) 0.2977

c) 0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver stopped for speeding, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have invalid licenses, or they do not. The probability of a driver having an invalid license is independent from other drivers. 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:

13 percent of the drivers stopped for speeding have invalid licenses.

This means that p = 0.13

14 drivers are stopped

This means that n = 14

(a) None will have an invalid license.

This is P(X = 0)

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

P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.13)^{0}.(0.87)^{14} = 0.1423

(b) Exactly one will have an invalid license.

This is P(X = 1)

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

P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.13)^{1}.(0.87)^{13} = 0.2977

(c) At least 2 will have invalid licenses.

Either less than 2 have invalid licenses, or at least 2 does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. Mathematically, this is

P(X < 2) + P(X \geq 2) = 1

We want P(X \geq 2)

So

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1423 + 0.2977 = 0.44

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.44 = 0.56

WILL MARK U AS BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

782.5inch³

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on volume of a prism and that of a cylinder

Finding the volume of the prism

V=Bh where B is the base area and h is the height

Base area=14"×14"=196 inch²

height =8"

v=196×8= 1568 in³

Finding volume of the cylinder

v=r²h where r is the radius of cylinder and h is the height of cylinder

r=10/2=5 inches and h=10 inches

v=3.142×5×5×10=785.5inch³

The difference in volume

Difference in volume=1568-785.5=782.5in

If the dimensions of a square based pyramid are tripled what happens to the volume?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Plug in numbers. if originally, it was V=1/2 * 1 * 1 * 2=1 

<span>tripling the dimensions would be V=1/2 * 3 * 3 * 6=27 </span>

<span>it would be 27 times larger. this could also be found by 3^3, just as doubling would render 2^3
