5 Girls + 3 Boys =8 (sample size)

Probability of choosing 1 boy P(1 B) = 3/8

Probability of NOT CHOOSING ANY BOY = 1-3/8 =5/8

Now apply the binomial probability to choose 3 Boys:

8C3(3/8)³(5/8)⁵ ==>P(All boys) = 0.28

the formula P = 2l + 2w ives the promoter P of a rectangular room with length l and width w. A rectangular living room is 26 ft
jonny [76]

Answer:

Therefore the Perimeter of the room is 94 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

P=2l+2w

Where ,

P = Perimeter

l = Length = 26 ft

w = Width = 21 ft

To Find:

Perimeter of the room = ?

Solution:

Perimeter of Rectangle is given as

P=2l+2w

Substituting 'l' and 'w' we get

P=2\times 26+2\times 21=52+42=94\ ft

P=94\ ft

Therefore the Perimeter of the room is 94 ft.

8x + 20y = 20<br> 14x + 35y = k<br> For the above system of equations to be consistent, k must equal
Goshia [24]

Answer:

  35

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations will be "consistent" when they describe lines that are not parallel.

<h3>Slopes</h3>

The slope of a line whose equation is written in this form is the opposite of the ratio of the y-coefficient to the x-coefficient:

  line 1 slope = -8/20 = -2/5

  line 2 slope = -14/35 = -2/5

These lines have the same slope, so will be parallel unless they have the same y-intercept.

<h3>Y-intercept</h3>

The y-intercept of each line is the ratio of the constant to the y-coefficient:

  line 1 y-intercept = 20/20 = 1

  line 2 y-intercept = k/35

We want these lines to have the same y-intercept so that they are not inconsistent. This requires ...

  k/35 = 1

  k = 35

For the equations to be consistent, we must have k = 35.

<em>Additional comment</em>

Linear equations are generally categorized as "consistent" or "inconsistent," and "dependent" or "independent."

Equations are "inconsistent" if there are no values of the variables that satisfy all of the equations. They are "dependent" if they describe exactly the same relation between the variables. "Consistent" equations may be "dependent" (describing the same line, as here), or "independent" (describing lines with different slopes.)

The lifetime of a battery in a certain application is normally distributed with mean μ = 16 hours and standard deviation σ = 2 h
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is 0.0668.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the lifetime of a battery in a certain application is normally distributed with mean μ = 16 hours and standard deviation σ = 2 hours.

<em>Let X = lifetime of a battery in a certain application</em>

So, X ~ N(\mu=16,\sigma^{2} =2^{2})

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

               Z = \frac{  X -\mu}{\sigma}  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = mean lifetime = 16 hours

            \sigma = standard deviation = 2 hours

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

So, the probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is given by = P(X > 19 hours)

  P(X > 19) = P( \frac{  X -\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{19-16}{2} ) = P(Z > 1.50) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.50)

                                              = 1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

<em>Now, in the z table the P(Z </em>\leq<em> x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.9332.</em>

Hence, the probability that a battery will last more than 19 hours is 0.0668.

vovangra [49]

¡Hola!

Your answer to the question is 10/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1

12-2= 10

16-4= 12

So your answer is 10/12.

Hope this Helps!
