About 33% of people who get their feet examined are found to have an ingrown toenail. What is the probability of a podiatrist ex

enot [183]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.94147

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denote the event that the podiatrist finds the first person with an ingrown toenail.

And (1 - A) denote the event that the podiatrist does not find the ingrown toenail.

While examining seven people, the podiatrist can find the very first person to have an ingrown toenail. Similarly he can find the second patient to have the ingrown toenail. Going in this way the probability of the first person to have an ingrown toenail is given by:

= A + (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A.

= $\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} .$

= $\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{3} + (\frac{2}{3}) ^{2} \frac{1}{3} + (\frac{2}{3})^{3} \frac{1}{3} + (\frac{2}{3})^{4} \frac{1}{3} + (\frac{2}{3})^{5} \frac{1}{3} + (\frac{2}{3})^{6} \frac{1}{3}.$

= 0.94147

We can also solve the above expression by using the geometric progression formula as well where common ratio is given by $\dfrac{2}{3}$ .

The angles of a triangle are 2x, 3x, and 4x degrees. Find the value of x.

dimulka [17.4K]

<span>We have to find the value of x if the measures of the angles of a triangle are: 2 x, 3 x and 4 x. We know that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. A + B + C = 180. Here we have: A = 2 x, B = 3 x and C = 4 x; 2 x + 3 x + 4 x = 180; 9 x = 180; x = 180 : 9. Answer: x = 20 degrees.</span>

Solve this equation.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

D: 6 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for a:

a + 7/6 = 8

Put each term in a + 7/6 over the common denominator 6: a + 7/6 = (6 a)/6 + 7/6:

(6 a)/6 + 7/6 = 8

(6 a)/6 + 7/6 = (6 a + 7)/6:

(6 a + 7)/6 = 8

Multiply both sides of (6 a + 7)/6 = 8 by 6:

(6 (6 a + 7))/6 = 6×8

(6 (6 a + 7))/6 = 6/6×(6 a + 7) = 6 a + 7:

6 a + 7 = 6×8

6×8 = 48:

6 a + 7 = 48

Subtract 7 from both sides:

6 a + (7 - 7) = 48 - 7

7 - 7 = 0:

6 a = 48 - 7

48 - 7 = 41:

6 a = 41

Divide both sides of 6 a = 41 by 6:

(6 a)/6 = 41/6

6/6 = 1:

Answer: a = 41/6 or a= 6 5/6
