Answer:

The answer is 10/36 or if you want to simplify, 5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply the sides with each other, so 5/12 x 2/3 is 10/36 (unsimplified) . You multiply the numerators and then the denominators and simplify.

A can holds 753.6 cubic centimeters of juice. The can has a diameter of 8 centimeters. What is the height of the can?

Tresset [83]

height = 15 cm

the volume (V) of a cylindrical can is

V = πr²h ( r is the radius and h the height )

here d = 8 cm ⇒ r = 4 cm

π × 4² × h = 753.6

16πh = 753.6 ( divide both sides by 16π )

h = 753.6 / 16π = 14.99 ≈ 15 cm

A box contains 24 transistors,4 of which are defective. If 4 are sold at random,find the following probabilities. i. Exactly 2 a

zavuch27 [327]

SOLUTION

This is a binomial probability. For i, we will apply the Binomial probability formula

i. Exactly 2 are defective

Using the formula, we have

$\begin{gathered} P_x=^nC_x\left(p^x\right?\left(q^{n-x}\right) \\ Where\text{ } \\ P_x=binomial\text{ probability} \\ x=number\text{ of times for a specific outcome with n trials =2} \\ p=\text{ probability of success = }\frac{4}{24}=\frac{1}{6} \\ q=probability\text{ of failure =1-}\frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{6} \\ ^nC_x=\text{ number of combinations = }^4C_2 \\ n=\text{ number of trials = 4} \end{gathered}$

Note that I made the probability of being defective as the probability of success = p

and probability of none defective as probability of failure = q

Exactly 2 are defective becomes the binomial probability

$\begin{gathered} P_x=^4C_2\times\lparen\frac{1}{6})^2\times\lparen\frac{5}{6})^{4-2} \\ P_x=6\times\frac{1}{36}\times\frac{25}{36} \\ P_x=\frac{25}{216} \\ =0.1157 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is 0.1157

(ii) None is defective becomes

$\begin{gathered} \lparen\frac{5}{6})^4=\frac{625}{1296} \\ =0.4823 \end{gathered}$

hence the answer is 0.4823

(iii) All are defective

$\begin{gathered} \lparen\frac{1}{6})^4=\frac{1}{1296} \\ =0.00077 \end{gathered}$

(iv) At least one is defective

This is 1 - probability that none is defective

$\begin{gathered} 1-\lparen\frac{5}{6})^4 \\ =1-\frac{625}{1296} \\ =\frac{671}{1296} \\ =0.5177 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is 0.5177

The diameter of a tire is 2.5 ft. Use this measurement to answer parts a and b. Show all work to receive full credit.

konstantin123 [22]

Thank you for posting your question here. Please see below answers for the problem above:

a. to find the circumference of the tire you need to multiply 3.14 by 2.5:
= 3.14 x 2.5
= 7.85 to round of it will be 8

b. to get the number of times the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile:

1 mile = 5,280 ft
1 rotation is 7.85
5,280/7.85 = 672.611465
