Answer:

Jack is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Luke : jack

3            2

We know like is 36

3*12 = 36, so we need to multiply by 12

Luke : jack

3*12     2*12

36          24

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation

Notice that Luke's real age is 12 times the number in the ratio, which is a simplified version of the original ratio, where they used division by 12 on both sides to get 3:2. Just do the opposite of division, which is multiplication, and multiply both sides of the ratio to get 36:24, which means that Jack is 24 years old!

Hope this helped you!

Komok [63]

Answer:

Cost, C = $28410.72

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, a concrete pillar has the shape of a cylinder.

Diameter of pillar is 8 m and ts height is 9 m

If concrete costs $87 per cubic meter, it is required to find the concrete cost for the pillar. For this lets find the area of cylindrical shape. So,

A=2\pi rh+2\pi r^2\\\\A=2\times 3.14\times 4\times 9+2\times 3.14\times 4^2\\\\A=326.56\ m^2

The cost of pillar at the rate of $87 per cubic meter will be :

C=326.56\times 87\\\\C=\$28410.72

Let the probability of success on a Bernoulli trial be 0.26. a. In five Bernoulli trials, what is the probability that there wil
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence of Bernoulli trials forms the binomial probability distribution.

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.

Let the probability of success on a Bernoulli trial be 0.26.

This means that p = 0.26

a. In five Bernoulli trials, what is the probability that there will be 4 failures?

Five trials means that n = 5

4 failures, so 1 success, and we have to find P(X = 1).

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

P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.26)^{1}.(0.74)^{4} = 0.3898

0.3898 = 38.98% probability that there will be 4 failures
