Answer:

0.216

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of green, P(green) is 40%, the probability of red, P(red) is 60%.

The probability of a light being red is not affected by the colour of the previous light, so at each of the 3 lights, the probability of red is always 60%.

To find the probability that all three lights will be red, multiply the three probabilities together. (Convert them to decimals first).

0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 = 0.216

A particle, initially 15 m from the origin and travelling at -2 ms), accelerates at a constant rate and ends up -20 m from the o
tigry1 [53]

the general equation for velocity in terms of acceleration and displacement is: v² = v₀² + 2ax.

Solve for a: a = (v² - v₀²)/(2x).

You are given v₀ and v, and x is easy to calculate since you are given its initial and final values. The rest is just arithmetic.

(note also: SI expressions have a required space between the coefficient and the unit symbol. Thus you should have things such as “15 m” and “-2 m·sˉ¹” instead of “15m” and “-2m·sˉ¹”.)

7. Which dimensions result in the minimum perimeter for a rectangle with area 42.0 cm2?
natali 33 [55]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7. d. l = 6.48 cm, w = 6.48 cm

  8. d. square

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given area, the perimeter can always be shortened by reducing the length of the long side and increasing the length of the short side. When you get to the point where you can't do that, then you have the minimum perimeter. You will reach that point when the sides are the same length: the rectangle is a square.

__

7. In light of the above, the best dimensions are √42 ≈ 6.48 cm for length and width.

__

8. In light of the above, the shape is a square.

_____

The attached graph shows the length of one side (x) and the associated perimeter. The other side is 42/x, which will also be 6.48.
