Hans is performing an experiment examining how salt affects the speed at which water freezes. He fills four equally sized contai

ners with the same amounts of water. Then, in three of the containers, he stirs in varying amounts of salt. The fourth container remains plain water.
Hans places all four of the containers in the same freezer and checks the containers every five minutes, recording when the water in each container freezes solid.

In this situation, what do Hans’s time measurements represent?

A.
the response variable
B.
the control group
C.
the response group
D.
the explanatory variable

A student takes an exam containing 1414 multiple choice questions. The probability of choosing a correct answer by knowledgeable
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the students guesses the correct answer, or he guesses the wrong answer. The probability of guessing the correct answer for a question is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

n = 14, p = 0.3.

If the student makes knowledgeable guesses, what is the probability that he will pass?

He needs to guess at least 9 answers correctly. So

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 9) = C_{14,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{5} = 0.0066

P(X = 10) = C_{14,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{4} = 0.0014

P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.3)^{11}.(0.7)^{3} = 0.0002

P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.3)^{12}.(0.7)^{2} = 0.000024

P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.3)^{13}.(0.7)^{1} = 0.000002

P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.3)^{14}.(0.7)^{0} \cong 0

P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0066 + 0.0014 + 0.0002 + 0.000024 + 0.000002 = 0.0082

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass

lilavasa [31]
Write a system of equations and solve.

x + y = 10
5x + 10y = 90

Multiply and combine equations

-5x - 5y = -50
5x + 10y = 90
------------------
5y = 40
y = 8
x = 2

There are 2 nickels and 8 dimes in the jar. Hope this helps! :)

Use the given scale factor in the side length of the scale drawing to determine the side links of the real object
ozzi

Answer:

A. side a is 7 inches long, side b is 6 inches long,and side c is 3 inches long

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question. Please find attached a diagram showing the scaled and real drawing

Use the given scale factor and the side lengths of the scale drawing to determine the side lengths of the real object

A. side a is 7 inches long, side b is 6 inches long,and side c is 3 inches long

B. side a is 30 inches long, side b is 25 inches long, and side c is 20 inches long

C. side a is 40 inches long, side b is 35 inches long,and side c is 20 inches long

D. side a is 175 inches long,side b is 150 inches long, and side c is inches long

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

The scaled drawing is an enlarged image of the original triangle.

It is enlarged at a ratio of 5:1

original dimensions

a = 35/5 = 7

b = 30 / 5 = 6

c = 15/5 = 3
