Answer: the probability that exactly two of the next five people who apply to that university get accepted is 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

We would number of people that applies for admission at the university and gets accepted. The formula is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - p) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 0.6

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6

q = 0.4

n = 5

the probability that exactly two of the next five people who apply to that university get accepted is

P(x = 2) = 5C2 × 0.6^2 × 0.4^(5 - 2)

P(x = 2) = 10 × 0.36 × 0.064

P(x = 2) = 0.23

A 10 ft pole has a support rope that extends from the top of the pole to the ground. The rope and the ground form a 30 degree an
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The length of rope is 20.0 ft . Hence, <u>option (1) </u> is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure below AB represents pole having height 10 ft  and AC represents the rope that is from the top of pole to the ground. BC represent the ground distance from base of tower to the rope.

The rope and the ground form a 30 degree angle that is the angle between BC and AC is 30°.

In right angled triangle ABC with right angle at B.

Since we have to find the length of rope that is the value of side AC.

Using trigonometric ratios

\sin C=\frac{\text{perpendicular}}{\text{hypotenuse}}

\sin C=\frac{AB}{AC}

Putting values,

\sin 30^\circ} =\frac{10}{AC}

We know, \sin 30^\circ}=\frac{1}{2}

\frac{1}{2} =\frac{10}{AC}

On solving we get,

AC= 20.0 ft

Thus, the length of rope is 20.0 ft

Hence, <u>option (1)</u> is correct.

The vertices of a triangle are P(−3, −4), Q(3, 4), and R(−6, −3). Name the vertices of Rx = 0 (PQR).
Katyanochek1 [597]
The correct answer is <span>A) P'(3, −4), Q'(−3, 4), R'(6, −3)</span>

Rx = 0 indicates a reflection over the y-axis. 

The rule for such a transformation is:
(x, y) --> (-x, y)
which means that the x-coordinate changes sign and the y-coordinate stays the same.

Therefore:
P<span>(-3, -4) --> P'(3, -4)
Q(3, 4) --> Q'(-3, 4)
R(-6, -3)</span> --> R'(6, -3)

These points are those in option A).
