On any given day, there is a 52% chance of there being an auto-related accident on a certain stretch of highway. The occurrence

of an accident from one day to the next is independent. (Use Statdisk to compute the values and write the answers below) (a). What is the probability that there will be 4 accidents in the next 9 days

Answer:

<h2>See the explanation.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to observe total 9 days.First we need to choose any 4 days from the 9 days. From these total 9 days, 4 days can be chosen in ^9C_4 = \frac{9!}{4!\times5!} = \frac{6\times7\times8\times9}{4!} = 126 ways.

The probability of occurring an auto related accident is \frac{52}{100}.

Similarly, the probability of not occurring an accident is \frac{100 - 52}{100} = \frac{48}{100}.

Hence, the required probability is 126\times(\frac{52}{100} )^4(\frac{48}{100} )^5.

Consider the polynomial P(x)=x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144. Write the equation of P in factored form.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: P(x)=x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144

It is a polynomial with degree 4.

It should maximum four factor.

Hit and trial error method.

Put x = 2 into P(x)

P(2)=2⁴+3×2³-28×2²-36×2+144

P(2) = 0

So, x-2 would be factor of P(x)

Now divide x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144 by x-2 to get another factors

(x^4+3x^3-28x^2-36x+144)\div (x-2) = x^3+5x^2-18x-72

P(x)=(x-2)(x^3+5x^2-18x-72)

Put x = 4

P(4) = 0

now divide x^3+5x^2-18x-72 by x-4

(x^3+5x^2-18x-72)\div (x-4) = x^2+9x+18

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x^2+9x+18)

Now factor x^2+9x+18

\Rightarrow x^2+9x+18

\Rightarrow (x+6)(x+3)

Complete factor of P(x)

P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)

A rectangular lawn measures 80 ft by 120 ft. Part of the lawn is torn up to install a sidewalk of uniform width around it. The a
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Both answers will give an area of 2400 ft2

but with x=60 we have lawn dimensions -60 ft by -40 ft so this is out

 

x = 10 ft width for the sidewalk

 

Check:  New lawn dimensions

(80-2x)(60-2x) = 60(40) = 2400 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a diagram:

We have a rectangle inside a rectangle.

 

The larger outside rectangle is the original lawn:  80ft by 60 ft with area 4800 ft2

 

The smaller inside rectangle is (80-2x)by(60-2x) where x is width of the new sidewalk.

 

Area of new lawn is 2400 ft^2

 

(80-2x)(60-2x) = 2400

4800 - 160x - 120x + 4x2 = 2400

4x2 - 280x + 2400 = 0

Factor out a 4

x2 - 70x + 600 = 0

(x-60)(x-10) = 0

 

x = 60 ft or x = 10 ft

if zamzam can sell 1 liter of camel milk for $1 and Jasmin herd produces 400 liters per day how much money could zamzam make per
nalin [4]

Answer:

Zamzam could make $400 per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Zamzam can sell 1 liter of camel milk for $1.

Jasmin herd produces 400 liters per day.

Now, to find the money Zamzam could make per day.

By multiplying we get the money zamzam could make:

<em>If cost of 1 liter milk = $1.</em>

<em>Then cost of 400 liters milk = $1 × 400.</em>

                                              =  $400.

Therefore, zamzam could make $400 per day.
