Answer: Mr. Shahoian need to purchase 9 pieces of fencing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of fencing around the flower beds in his backyard = 166.25 ft

The fencing is sold in lengths of 19 ft each.

Number of pieces of fencing = (Length of fencing ) ÷ (19)

i.e. Number of pieces of fencing = 166.25 ÷ 19

= 8.75 ≈ 9

Hence, Mr. Shahoian need to purchase 9 pieces of fencing.

A particular brand of dishwasher soap is sold in three sizes: 25 oz, 40 oz, and 65 oz. Twenty percent of all purchasers select a
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

There are 3 sizes of dishwasher soaps.

Twenty percent of all purchasers select a 25-oz box, 50% select a 40-oz box, and the remaining 30% choose a 65-oz box. Let X1 and X2 denote the package sizes selected by two independently selected purchasers.

Therefore, 3 \times 3 = 9 random samples of size 2 are taken from the population.

The information is well represented in the table below.

x_1     x_2     p(x_1 \ x_2) = p(x_1)p(x_2)    \bar x = \dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2}     s^2= (x_1-\bar x)^2 +(x_2-\bar x)^2

25    25    0.20×0.20=0.04        25                              0

25    40    0.20×0.50=0.10         32.5                         112.5

25    65    0.20×0.30= 0.06        45                            800

40    25    0.50×0.20=0.10         32.5                          112.5

40    40    0.50×0.50=0.25         40                             0

40    65    0.50×0.30=0.15          52.5                         312.5

65    25    0.30×0.20=0.06        45                             800

65    40    0.30×0.50=0.15          52.5                         312.5

65    65    0.30×0.30=0.09         65                              0

The sample distribution of \bar x is shown below as ;

\bar x           25        32.5              40       45                  52.5          65

p(\bar x)       0.04   0.10+0.10      0.25   0.06+0.06    0.15+0.15    0.09    

                       = 0.20                      =0.12              =0.30

The value of E(\bar x) = \sum \bar x  \ P(\bar x)

=  25(0.04) + 32.5(0.20) + 40(0.25) + 45(0.12)  +  52.5(0.30)  +  65(0.09)

= 44.5 oz

From the same table above ;

the sampling distribution of {s^2} is be shown below;

{s^2}          0                          112.5            312.5             800

           0.04+0.25       0.10+0.10     0.15+0.15        0.06+0.06

          +0.09

p(s)^2   = 0.38                =0.20           = 0.30               0.12

The value of E(s)^2  =\sum s^2 .p(s)^2

= (0×0.38)+(112.5×0.20)+(312.5×0.30)+(800×0.12)

=0+112+93.75+96

22% of all resumes received by a corporation for a management position are from females. 18 resumes will be received tomorrow.
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

5.80% probability that exactly 1 resume will be from females.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each resume received by the corporation, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are from a female, or they are not. The probability of a resume received being from a female is independent from other resumes. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

22% of all resumes received by a corporation for a management position are from females.

This means that p = 0.22

18 resumes will be received tomorrow.

This means that n = 18

What is the probability that exactly 1 resume will be from females?

This is P(X = 1).

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

P(X = 1) = C_{18,1}.(0.22)^{1}.(0.78)^{17} = 0.0580

5.80% probability that exactly 1 resume will be from females.

Find angle D if angle B = 50
Mariana [72]
<h3>Answer:  80 degrees</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming that segments AD and CD are tangents to the circle.

We'll need to add a point E at the center of the circle. Inscribed angle ABC subtends the minor arc AC, and this minor arc has the central angle AEC.

By the inscribed angle theorem, inscribed angle ABC = 50 doubles to 2*50 = 100 which is the measure of arc AC and also central angle AEC.

----------------------------

Focus on quadrilateral DAEC. In other words, ignore point B and any segments connected to this point.

Since AD and CD are tangents, this makes the radii EA and EC to be perpendicular to the tangent segments. So angles A and C are 90 degrees each for quadrilateral DAEC.

We just found angle AEC = 100 at the conclusion of the last section. So this is angle E of quadrilateral DAEC.

---------------------------

Here's what we have so far for quadrilateral DAEC

  • angle A = 90
  • angle E = 100
  • angle C = 90
  • angle D = unknown

Now we'll use the idea that all four angles of any quadrilateral always add to 360 degrees

A+E+C+D = 360

90+100+90+D = 360

D+280 = 360

D = 360-280

D = 80

Or a shortcut you can take is to realize that angles E and D are supplementary

E+D = 180

100+D = 180

D = 180-100

D = 80

This only works if AD and CD are tangents.

Side note: you can use the hypotenuse leg (HL) theorem to prove that triangle EAD is congruent to triangle ECD; consequently it means that AD = CD.
