Which are the correct classifications for the polygon?

When asked to factor the x^2-121 a student gives the answer (x-11)(x-11) what is wron with this answer?

Art [367]

Given expression is x² - 121

This is called Difference of Squared terms, we have a formula that is given as :-

a² - b² = (a - b) · (a + b)

Now using the above formula in the given expression, we get :-

x² - 121

x² - (11)²

here a = x and b = 11

x² - (11)² = (x - 11) · (x + 11)

but it says that student gave the answer as (x - 11) · (x - 11).

So, student's answer should be (x - 11) · (x + 11) instead of product of two (x - 11) terms.

On a map, 1 inch equals 5.2 miles. Two house are 3.5 inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the house?

MissTica

Answer:

18.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

simple multiplication:

We know that 1 inch of distance on the map is equal to 5.2 miles.

Using this knowledge we can multiply the amount of inches by the miles per inch.

5.2*3.5=18.2 miles apart

Hope this helps!!

7.109) The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share. A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they choose the leading brand, or they do not. The probability of a customer choosing the leading brand is independent of any other customer, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

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.

The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share.

This means that $p = 0.3$

A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken.

This means that $n = 25$

a. What is the probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand?

This is:

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

In which

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{25,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{25} = 0.0001$

$P(X = 1) = C_{25,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{24} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{23} = 0.0074$

$P(X = 3) = C_{25,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{22} = 0.0243$

$P(X = 4) = C_{25,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{21} = 0.0572$

$P(X = 5) = C_{25,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{20} = 0.1030$

$P(X = 6) = C_{25,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{19} = 0.1472$

$P(X = 7) = C_{25,7}.(0.3)^{7}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.1712$

$P(X = 8) = C_{25,8}.(0.3)^{8}.(0.7)^{17} = 0.1651$

$P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{16} = 0.1336$

$P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{15} = 0.0916$

Then

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0001 + 0.0014 + 0.0074 + 0.0243 + 0.0572 + 0.1030 + 0.1472 + 0.1712 + 0.1651 + 0.1336 + 0.0916 = 0.9021$

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand
