Answer:

The low temperature last week was of -10ºC.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between temperatures in celsius(C) and Fahrenheit(F) is given by the following equation:

$F = \frac{9C}{5} + 32$

Here, we have that $F = 13$ , and we want to find C. So

$13 = \frac{9C}{5} + 32$

$\frac{9C}{5} = -19$

$9C = -90$

$C = - \frac{90}{9}$

$C = -10$

The low temperature last week was of -10ºC.

Discrete R.V. Assume a student shows up for EGR 280 completely unprepared and the instructor gives a pop quiz. Assume there are

Tom [10]

Answer:

a) p=0.2

b) probability of passing is 0.01696

.

c) The expected value of correct questions is 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since each question has 5 options, all of them equally likely, and only one correct answer, then the probability of having a correct answer is 1/5 = 0.2.

b) Let X be the number of correct answers. We will model this situation by considering X as a binomial random variable with a success probability of p=0.2 and having n=6 samples. We have the following for k=0,1,2,3,4,5,6

$P(X=k) = \binom{n}{k}p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k} = \binom{6}{k}0.2^{k}(0.8)^{6-k}$ .

Recall that $\binom{n}{k}= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$ In this case, the student passes if X is at least four correct questions, then

$P(X\geq 4) = P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)=\binom{6}{4}0.2^{4}(0.8)^{6-4}+\binom{6}{5}0.2^{5}(0.8)^{6-5}+\binom{6}{6}0.2^{6}(0.8)^{6-6}= 0.01696$

c)The expected value of a binomial random variable with parameters n and p is $E[X] = np$ . IN our case, n=6 and p =0.2. Then the expected value of correct answers is $6\cdot 0.2 = 1.2$

Which choice is equivalent to the product below when x>0?

V125BC [204]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals

$\sqrt{\frac{a}{b} }$ = $\frac{\sqrt{a} }{\sqrt{b} }$

$\sqrt{a\\}$ × $\sqrt{b}$ ⇔ $\sqrt{ab}$

Given

$\sqrt{\frac{6}{x} }$ × $\sqrt{\frac{x^2}{24} }$

= $\frac{\sqrt{6} }{\sqrt{x} }$ × $\frac{x^2}{24}$

= $\frac{\sqrt{6} }{\sqrt{x} }$ × $\frac{x}{2 \sqrt{6\\} }$

Cancel $\sqrt{6}$ on numerator/ denominator

= $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x} }$ × $\frac{x}{2\\}$

= $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x} }$ × $\frac{(\sqrt{x})^2 }{2}$

Cancel $\sqrt{x}$ on numerator/ denominator, leaving

= $\frac{\sqrt{x} }{2}$ → D

Expand to write an equivalent expression: -1/4(-8x+12y)

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

8x -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property. 16 outside wishes to go inside and multiply each term; you get 16x/2 which is 8x minus ¾ of 16 which is 12.

The two triangles in the image are similar. What is the value of TR?

eimsori [14]

Answer:

5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

48 ÷ 8 = 6

This means the scale factor to get from triangle TSR to triangle PSQ is 6, so...

30 ÷ TR = 6

TR = 5
