How do I solve and whats the answer?

8090 [49]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have an equilateral triangle. All three sides have the same length, 2. Therefore, the interior angles are all equal to 60 degrees.

Therefore, 6 - 9x = 60, and -9x = 54. Dividing both sides by -9 results in

x = -54/9, or x = -6.

If a procedure meets all of the conditions of a binomial distribution except the number of trials is not fixed, then the geomet

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The probability is 0.0428

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's remember that the binomial distribution is given by the formula:

$P(X=k) =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\k\end{array}\right] p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}$ where k is the number of successes in n trials and p is the probability of success.

However, the problem tells us that when there isn't a number of trials fixed, we can use the geometric distribution and the formula for getting the first success on the xth trial becomes:

$P(X=x) = p(1-p)^{x-1}\\$

The problem asks us to find the probability of the first success on the 4th trial (given that the first subject to be a universal blood donor will be the fourth person selected)

Using this formula with the parameters given, we have:

p = 0.05

x = 4

Substituting these parameters in the formula and solving it, we get:

$P(X=4) = 0.05(1-0.05)^{4-1}\\P(X=4) = 0.05 (0.95)^{3}\\P(X=4) = 0.05(.8573)\\P(X=4) = 0.0428$

Therefore, the probability that the first subject to be a universal blood donor is the fourth person selected is 0.0428 or 4.28%

One fourth of a box of cereal was shared equally among 3 people. How much cereal did each person get?

just olya [345]

Okay so the problem starts you off with the fraction (1/4). Sharing equally among 3 people would mean that you'd want to divide it by three so your equation would initially look like (1/4) / 3. Having two dividing signs is confusing so what you do is change the dividing into multiplying by the reciprocal of 3 = 1/3... This would make your expression (1/4) * (1/3) and when you simplify this you should get 1/12 as the answer.
