Suppose a company produces report indicates that the surveyed distance between two points is 1200 feet with a margin of error of

±0.1 feet. What are the maximum and minimum distances that the reader could assume based on the surveyed distance and margin of error?

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answers are:

MaximumDistance=1200.1ft\\MinimumDistance=1199.9ft

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since we are given the margin of error and it's equal to ±0.1 feet, and we know the surveyed distance, we can calculate the maximum and minimum distance. We must remember that margin of errors usually involves and maximum and minimum margin of a measure, and it means that the real measure will not be greater or less than the values located at the margins.

We know that the surveyed distance is 1200 feet with a margin of error of ±0.1 feet, so, we can calculate the maximum and minimum distances that the reader could assume in the following way:

MaximumDistance=ActualDistance+0.1feet\\\\MaximumDistance=1200feet+0.1feet=1200.1feet

MinimumDistance=ActualDistance-0.1feet\\\\MaximumDistance=1200feet-0.1feet=1199.9feet

Have a nice day!

Samir is an expert marksman. When he takes aim at a particular target on the shooting range, there is a 0.950.950, point, 95 pro
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

40.1% probability that he will miss at least one of them

Step-by-step explanation:

For each target, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he hits it, or he does not. The probability of hitting a target is independent of other targets. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

0.95 probaiblity of hitting a target

This means that p = 0.95

10 targets

This means that n = 10

What is the probability that he will miss at least one of them?

Either he hits all the targets, or he misses at least one of them. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

P(X = 10) + P(X < 10) = 1

We want P(X < 10). So

P(X < 10) = 1 - P(X = 10)

In which

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

P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.95)^{10}.(0.05)^{0} = 0.5987

P(X < 10) = 1 - P(X = 10) = 1 - 0.5987 = 0.401

40.1% probability that he will miss at least one of them

How many solutions does this system have? y=3/4x-5 -3x+4y=-20?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

infinite

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply all factors in the secon eqation by 4, you will get the first eqation.

Therefore for any value of x you can find y, thus having an infinite number of x,y pairs
