Answer:

Length of string used by Claire = 7 / 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of string Claire in starts = 4\frac{1}{6} feet

Length of string Claire in end = 1\frac{5}{6} feet

Find:

Length of string used by Claire

Computation:

Length of string Claire in starts = 4\frac{1}{6} feet = 25 / 6 feet

Length of string Claire in end = 1\frac{5}{6} feet = 11 / 6 feet

Length of string used by Claire = Length of string Claire in starts - Length of string Claire in end

Length of string used by Claire = [25 / 6] - [11 / 6]

BY taking LCM

Length of string used by Claire = [25 - 11] / 6

Length of string used by Claire = 14 / 6

Length of string used by Claire = 7 / 3 feet

1 = 73 - 2*0.5 = 72 cm

w = 60 - 2*0.5 = 59 cm

h = 38 - 1*0.5 = 37.5 cm

V = l × w × h

V = 72*59*37.5

V = 159,300 cm^3

Worth 50 points if you help<br> Plz it’s due in 3 hours it’s math and show ur work plz
vodomira [7]

Answer:

1 We set z=-4

(2*-4 + b)(-4 - 3) = 0

(-8 + b)(-7) = 0

Set the factor (-8 + b) equal to 0.

-8 + b = 0

Solving for b, we get 8

b = 8

2We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

6x-12=51-3x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+6x+3x=+51+12

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+9x=+63

We divide both sides of the equation by 9 to get x.  

x=7

3 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 6x = 35 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 6x = 35 + -8

6x = 35 + -8

Combine like terms: 35 + -8 = 27

6x = 27

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 4.5

Simplifying

x = 4.5

4 Combine like terms: 6x + x = 7x

14 + 7x = 70

Solving

14 + 7x = 70

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-14' to each side of the equation.

14 + -14 + 7x = 70 + -14

Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0

0 + 7x = 70 + -14

7x = 70 + -14

Combine like terms: 70 + -14 = 56

7x = 56

Divide each side by '7'.

x = 8

Simplifying

x = 8

5 15-4=11+3=14

19-14= x=5

6Combine like terms: -2 + 10 = 8

8 + 6x + 8x = 8

Combine like terms: 6x + 8x = 14x

8 + 14x = 8

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 14x = 8 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 14x = 8 + -8

14x = 8 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

14x = 0

Solving

14x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '14'.

x = 0

Simplifying

x = 0

7idk sorry

8Solving

0.8 + 0.4x = 2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.8' to each side of the equation.

0.8 + -0.8 + 0.4x = 2 + -0.8

Combine like terms: 0.8 + -0.8 = 0.0

0.0 + 0.4x = 2 + -0.8

0.4x = 2 + -0.8

Combine like terms: 2 + -0.8 = 1.2

0.4x = 1.2

Divide each side by '0.4'.

x = 3

Simplifying

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

i hope this is right good luck

Suppose that the probability that any particle emitted by a radioactive material will penetrate a certain shield is 0.01. If 10
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

a)P=0.42

b) n\geq 297

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a binomial distribution, since the result of each experiment admits only two categories (success and failure) and the value of both possibilities is constant in all experiments. The probability of getting k successes in n trials is given by:

P=\begin{pmatrix}n\\ k\end{pmatrix} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n!-k!)}p^k(1-p)^{n-k}

a) we have k=2, n=10 and p=0.01:

P=\frac{10!}{2!(10!-2!)}0.01^2(1-0.01)^{10-2}\\P=\frac{10!}{2!*8!}0.01^2(0.99)^{8}\\P=45*0.01^2(0.99)^8=0.42

b) We have, 1-(1-p)^n=P, Here P is the probability that at least one particle will penetrate the shield, this probabity has to be equal or greater than 0.95. Therefore, this will be equal to subtract from the total probability, the probability that the particles do not penetrate raised to the total number of particles.

1-0.99^n\geq 0.95\\0.99^n\leq 1-0.95\\0.99^n\leq 0.05\\n\geq 297
