Answer:

Incorrect measurement

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Triangle

Length: 22in, 10in and 11in

Required: Determine if the measurements are correct

For the measurement of a triangle to be true, the sum of any 2 sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

i.e.

$22 + 10 > 11$ --- True

$22 + 11 > 10$ --- True

$11 + 10 > 22$ --- False

Since all three conditions are not true, then the measurements are incorrect

Denise earns $30 an hour. She works 40 hours per week. A. Create and solve an expression to represent how much money Denise earn

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

$1,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the hours Denise works in a week, and y be her earnings per week.

y = ($30/hr)(x)

For a 40 hour week, Denise earns:

y = ($30/hr)(40 hr/week)

y = $1,200 in a week.

Suppose that only 20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions whe

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

a) 91.33% probability that at most 6 will come to a complete stop

b) 10.91% probability that exactly 6 will come to a complete stop.

c) 19.58% probability that at least 6 will come to a complete stop

d) 4 of the next 20 drivers do you expect to come to a complete stop

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will come to a complete stop, or they will not. The probability of a driver coming to a complete stop is independent of other drivers. 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.

20% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions when no other cars are visible.

This means that $p = 0.2$

20 drivers

This means that $n = 20$

a. at most 6 will come to a complete stop?

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

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

$P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{20} = 0.0115$

$P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{19} = 0.0576$

$P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.1369$

$P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{17} = 0.2054$

$P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.2)^{4}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.2182$

$P(X = 5) = C_{20,5}.(0.2)^{5}.(0.8)^{15} = 0.1746$

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.1091$

$P(X \leq 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 + 0.2182 + 0.1746 + 0.1091 = 0.9133$
