Yo sup??

The given points are (1,1),(1,3) and (9,2)

equation of circle is

8x²+8y²+ax+by=0

let us plug in (1,1) in the equation we get

8+8+a+b=0

a+b=-16

let us now plug in (1,3) in the equation

8+8*3²+a+3b=0

a+3b=-80

let us. now solve the two equation in terms of a and b

we get

2b=--64

b=-32

and

a=-16+32

=16

therefore the equation is

8x²+8y²+16x-32y=0

Hope this helps

Thirty percent of all customers who enter a department store will make a purchase. Suppose that 6 customers enter the store and

torisob [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use binomial distribution, because we are interested in find the total number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments.

In probability, a binomial distribution is used in a Bernoulli process. That is, a sequence of experiments of n independent trials, each asking a dichotomous question, that means it only has two answers. One answer is a success (probability: p) and the other is a failure (probability: 1-p). In this case, every customer who enters in the store is the experiment. If they make a purchase is a success event, taking into account that every purchase decision has to be independent.

$P(X=x) = C(n,x)p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}$

x= total number of success

n= total number of experiments

p=probability of success on an indivual trial

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

a) x= 5 ------> customers that make a purchase

n= 6 ------> total customers

p=0.3

$p(X=5)= C(6,5)(0.3)^{5} (1-0.3)^{6-5} \\p(X=5)=0.102$

b) At least 3 customers make a purchase. x ≥ 3

$P(X\geq 3)=1-P (X=0)-P(X=1)-P(X=2)\\P(X\geq 3)=1-(C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) - (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) - (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\ P(X\geq 3) = 1-0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\geq3)= 0.2557$

c) At most 2 customers make a purchase. x ≤ 2

$P(X\leq2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)\\P(X\leq2) = (C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) + (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) + (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\P(X\leq2) = 0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\leq2)=0.7443$

d)At least 1 customer makes a purchase. x ≥ 1

$P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\P(X\geq 1)= 1-C(0,6)(0.3)^{0}(0.7)^{6} \\P(X\geq 1)= 1-0.11765 = 0.8824$

e)They must be kind to customers, always willing to help and give information about products clearly and honestly.

Have enough inventory and offer promotions for the purchase of more than one product

Have an agile payment system that avoids rows and delays in purchases.

Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 43.8° wit

REY [17]

Answer:

Index of refraction of transparent is 1.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Snell's law states that;

n1(sinθ1) = n2(sinθ2)

Where;

n1 and n2 represent the indices of refraction for the two media, and θ1 and θ2 are the angles of incidence and refraction that the ray R makes with the normal.

In this question;

n1 = 1;

θ1 = 43.8°

θ2 = 19.3°

n2 is unknown.

Thus using Snell's law, we have;

1 x sin 43.8 = n2 x sin 19.3

n2 = (sin 43.8)/sin 19.3

n2 = 1.48
