Emily, Frances, and Bill each carried a 10-pound bag of soil into the backyard. After putting the soil in the first flower bed,

Emily's bag was ⅝ full, Frances's bag was ⅖ full, and Bill's bag was ⅖ full. How many pounds of soil did they put in the first flower bed altogether?

Step-by-step explanation:

emily: 10(5/8) = 6 1/4 or 6.25 pounds left

10- 6.25 = 3.75 used

Frances : 10(2/5) = 4 pounds left

10-4 = 6 pounds used

Bills : 10(2/5) = 4 pounds left

10-4 = 6 pounds used

add them together

15.75 or 15 3/4 pounds of soil in the first flower bed

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

Write the equation of the line that perpendicular to 4x+5y=20 an that passes through the point (-4,1)
Bad White [126]

Answer:

y = (5/4)x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1st line's equation is:

● 4x + 5y = 20

Substract 4x from both sides

● 4x + 5y - 4x = 20 - 4x

● 5y = 20 -4x

● 5y = -4x + 20

Divide both sides by 5

● 5y/5 = (-4x + 20)/5

● y = (-4/5)x + 4

● y = -0.8x + 4

Let m be the slope of the second line

The lines are perpendicular so the product of their slopes equals -1

Then: m × (-0.8) = -1

● m × (-0.8)= -1

● m = -1/(-0.8)

● m = 1.25

y = 1.25x + b

b is the y-intercept of the line.

To get it replace by the coordinates of a point.

We are given that the line passes through (-4,1)

● y = 1.25x + b

● 1 = 1.25 × (-4) + b

1.25 is 5/5

● 1 = (5/4) × (-4) + b

● 1 = -5 + b

Add 5 to both sides

● 1 + 5 = -5 + b + 5

● b = 6

So the equation is

● y = (5/4)x + 6

The height of a rocket a given number of seconds after it is released is modeled by h (t) = negative 16 t squared 32 t 10. What
V125BC [204]

The variable t represents the number of seconds that have passed after the release of the rocket.

<h3>Function</h3>

The function can be defined as an expression that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

The height of a rocket a given number of seconds after it is released is modeled by,

h(t) = 6t^2 + 32t + 10

As given in the above function, h (height) is the dependent variable which depends on the number of seconds t after the rocket is released (independent variable).

Hence we can conclude that the variable t represents the number of seconds after the rocket has been released.

To know more about the function, follow the link given below.
