Find the component of a velocity vector of an airplane that is traveling 150 mph at 45° below horizontal.

Answer:

none of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the answer choices agree that the magnitude of the components is 150/√2 ≈ 106.1. The units of these components should be "mph", the same as the units of the magnitude of the given vector.

We only know the angle with respect to horizontal. We don't know whether that angle is measured with respect to the positive x-axis or the negative x-axis. Both of those are horizontal, and there is nothing in the problem statement that restricts the airplane to be traveling in one direction or the other.

Possible answers are ...

<106.1 mph, -106.1 mph> . . . . . . "horizontal" is +x direction

<-106.1 mph, -106.1 mph> . . . . . "horizontal" is -x direction

(The units are not degrees (°).)

X=-56/3

multiply everything by 4 to cancel the fraction which will give you
3x+20=-36

then combine like terms to get
3x=-56

then divide to get x by itself to get

x=-56/3

since this is a weird decimal, leave it as an improper fraction

5/4 to 3/8 as a percent change

Digiron [165]

Well, what's the diffrence from 5/4 to 3/8?

$\bf \cfrac{5}{4}-\cfrac{3}{8}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{LCD is 8 clearly}}{\implies }\qquad \cfrac{10-3}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{8}$

so, if we take 5/4 to be the 100%, what is 7/8 off of it in percentage anyway?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{5}{4}&100\\\\
\frac{7}{8}&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }{\frac{7}{8}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{4}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{40}{28}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{28\cdot 100}{40}$

3. Assume that the likelihood of a child under the age of ten watching PBS is 0.76. Three children are

natta225 [31]

Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.4159 = 41.59%.

b) 0.5610 = 56.10%.

c) 0.8549 = 85.49%.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

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

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are:

n = 3, p = 0.76.

Item a:

The probability is P(X = 2), hence:

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

$P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.76)^{2}.(0.24)^{1} = 0.4159$

Item b:

The probability is P(X < 3), hence:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)

In which:

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

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.76)^{3}.(0.24)^{0} = 0.4390$

Then:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.4390 = 0.5610 = 56.10%.

Item c:

The probability is:

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.4159 + 0.4390 = 0.8549$

Answer: 1 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Using the equation (12*18)-(7*3), where 12*18 is the area of the wall, 7*3 is the area of the door not being painted, you are left with 196 square ft. of wall. further dividing 196/200 is 0.98, meaning that Mr. Smith will only need one gallon of paint for his wall.

[(12*18)-(7*3)]/200

(215-21)/200

196/200

0.98
