Mathematics
1 answer:
Arisa [49]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

3.07

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{9x + 1}{21}  =  \frac{11x - 1}{24}

24(9x + 1) = 21(11x - 1)

216x + 24 = 231x - 21

24 + 21 = 231x - 216x

46 = 15x

x = 3.07

The perimeter of an isosceles trapezoid is 28 in and the ratio of lengths of its bases is 5:3. Find the lengths of the sides of
Natalka [10]
The measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches

Let x = length of base and leg

The formula for perimeter of isosceles trapezoid is P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
Where: b = base

       P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
     28 = 3x + 5x + 2(x)
     28 = 8x + 2x
28/10 = 10x/10
    2.8 = x

Now, substitute the values:
       P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
     28 = 3(2.8) + 5(2.8) + 2(2.8)
     28 = 8.4 + 14 + 5.6
     28 = 28

Hence the measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches

Consider rolling two fair dice one 3-sided the other 5-sided
Ne4ueva [31]

Since the dice are fair and the rolling are independent, each single outcome has probability 1/15. Every time we choose

1\leq x\leq 3,\quad 1\leq y \leq 5

We have P(X=x)=\frac{1}{3} and P(Y=y)=\frac{1}{5}, because the dice are fair.

Now we use the assumption of independence to claim that

P(X=x, Y=y) = P(X=x)\cdot P(Y=y) =\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot\dfrac{1}{5} = \dfrac{1}{15}

Now, we simply have to count in how many ways we can obtain every possible outcome for the sum. Consider the attached table: we can see that we can obtain:

  • 2 in a unique way (1+1)
  • 3 in two possible ways (1+2, 2+1)
  • 4 in three possible ways
  • 5 in three possible ways
  • 6 in three possible ways
  • 7 in two possible ways
  • 8 in a unique way

This implies that the probabilities of the outcomes of W=X+Y are the number of possible ways divided by 15: we can obtain 2 and 8 with probability 1/15, 3 and 7 with probability 2/15, and 4, 5 and 6 with probabilities 3/15=1/5

A study of the relationship between age and various visual functions (such as acuity and depth perception) reported the followin
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

(a) \sum x_i=56.68 and \sum x_i^2=197.46

(b) The sample variance is s^2=0.530 and the sample standard deviation is s=0.728

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The sum of these 17 sample observations is

\sum x_i=2.79\:+2.57+\:2.73\:+3.75\:+2.27+\:2.75+\:4.00+\:4.22+\:3.88+\:4.35+\:3.41+\:4.57+\:2.38+\:3.73\:+2.75+\:3.47+\:3.06\\\\\sum x_i=56.68

and the sum of their squares is

\sum x_i^2=2.79^2\:+2.57^2+\:2.73^2\:+3.75^2\:+2.27^2+\:2.75^2+\:4.00^2+\:4.22^2+\:3.88^2+\:4.35^2+\:3.41^2+\:4.57^2+\:2.38^2+\:3.73^2\:+2.75^2+\:3.47^2+\:3.06^2\\\\\sum x_i^2=197.46

(b)

The sample variance, denoted by s^2, is given by

s^2=\frac{S_{xx}}{n-1}

where S_{xx} =\sum x_i^2-\frac{(\sum x_i)^2}{n}

Applying the above formula we get that

S_{xx}=197.46-\frac{(56.68)^2}{17}\\\\S_{xx} =8.482

s^2=\frac{8.482}{17-1}=0.530

The sample standard deviation, denoted by <em>s</em>, is the (positive) square root of the variance:

s=\sqrt{s^2}

Applying the above formula we get that

s=\sqrt{0.530}=0.728
