Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices lie on the x-axis, as is determined by their coordinates. This makes the center of this hyperbola (0, 0) because the center is directly between the vertices. The fact that the foci also lie on the x-axis tells us that this is the main axis. What this also tells us is which way the hyperbola "opens". This one opens to the left and the right as opposed to up and down. The standard form for this hyperbola is:

\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1 and so far we have that h = 0 and k = 0.

By definition, a is the distance between the center and the vertices. So a = 5, and a-squared is 25. So we're getting there. Now here's the tricky part.

The expressions for the foci are (h-c, k) and (h+c, k). Since we know the foci lie at +/-13, we can use that to solve for c:

If h+c = 13 and h = 0, then

0 + c = 13 and c = 13.

We need that c value to help us find b:

c^2=a^2+b^2 and

13^2=5^2+b^2 and

169=25+b^2 and

144=b^2 so

b = 12. Now we're ready to fill in the equation:

\frac{x^2}{25}-\frac{y^2}{144}=1 and there you go!

binomial(16 + 7, 16) 2^(-(16 + 7)) = ((16 + 7)!)/(16! 7! 2^(16 + 7)) = 245157/8388608 ≈ 0.02922 ≈ 1/34.22

(assuming children are independent and male and female are equally likely)

| probability

less than 16 boys | 0.9534

16 or less boys | 0.9827

more than 16 boys | 0.01734

16 or more boys | 0.04657

fraction of boys | 16/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.695652

fraction of girls | 7/(16 + 7) ≈ 0.304348

expected value | 11.5

standard deviation | 2.398

variance | 5.75
