Answer:

7 inches and 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The length the length and width of the rectangle be l and b.

Accodrding to question,

Width, b = l-2

Perimeter, P = 24 inches

We know that,

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

P = 2(l+b)

24 = 2(l+l-2)

12 = 2l-2

14=2l

l = 7 inches

Width, b = 7-2 = 5 inches

Hence, the length and width of the rectangle are 7 inches and 5 inches respectively.

A skilled chess player believes that when they play a novice opponent, there is a 90% probability they will be able to beat them
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

b) Binomial

c) Poisson

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric distribution is the number of trials required to have r successes. The measures the number of sucesses(wins), not the number of trials required to win r games. So the geometric distribution does not apply.

For each match, there are only two possible outcomes, either the skilled player wins, or he does not. The probability of the skilled player winning a game is independent of other games. So the binomial distribution applies.

We can also find the expected number of wins of the skilled player, which is 15*0.9 = 13.5. The Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution in which the only parameter is the expected number of sucesses. So the Poisson distribution applies.

So the correct answer is:

b) Binomial

c) Poisson

Lim of tan(x) as x approaches pi/2. It does not ask from either the + or - direction, just pi/2. The answer is 0, but i think it
faltersainse [42]
Yes, you are right, if it approaches from the left, the limit is infinity and if it approaches from the right, the limit is negative infinity. The limit does not exist because it reaches infinity as x approaches pi/2 and the limits are the same when the value is approached from the opposite directions.
