Answer:
The width of the floor is 10 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to form expressions of width and length in terms of w. With the given information :
width = w ft
length = (w - 2) ft
Given that the area of rectange is A = length × width so you have to subtitute the expressions and value into the formula :
A = l × w
80 = (w - 2) × w
w(w - 2) = 80
w² - 2w = 80
w² - 2w - 80 = 0
(w + 8)(w - 10) = 0
w + 8 = 0
w = -8 (rejected)
w - 10 = 0
w = 10
Answer:
- The probability that overbooking occurs means that all 8 non-regular customers arrived for the flight. Each of them has a 56% probability of arriving and they arrive independently so we get that
P(8 arrive) = (0.56)^8 = 0.00967
- Let's do part c before part b. For this, we want an exact booking, which means that exactly 7 of the 8 non-regular customers arrive for the flight. Suppose we align these 8 people in a row. Take the scenario that the 1st person didn't arrive and the remaining 7 did. That odds of that happening would be (1-.56)*(.56)^7.
Now take the scenario that the second person didn't arrive and the remaining 7 did. The odds would be
(0.56)(1-0.56)(0.56)^6 = (1-.56)*(.56)^7. You can run through every scenario that way and see that each time the odds are the same. There are a total of 8 different scenarios since we can choose 1 person (the non-arriver) from 8 people in eight different ways (combination).
So the overall probability of an exact booking would be [(1-.56)*(.56)^7] * 8 = 0.06079
- The probability that the flight has one or more empty seats is the same as the probability that the flight is NOT exactly booked NOR is it overbooked. Formally,
P(at least 1 empty seat) = 1 - P(-1 or 0 empty seats)
= 1 - P(overbooked) - P(exactly booked)
= 1 - 0.00967 - 0.06079
= 0.9295.
Note that, the chance of being both overbooked and exactly booked is zero, so we don't have to worry about that.
Hope that helps!
Have a great day :P
Answer:
The error is at step (3) .
The correct step (3) will be,
= 
[by using the laws of indices]
All other steps are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The error is at the step (3) , because the student has tried to prove the quotient rule of logarithms by using the property i.e., 'The quotient rule of logarithm' itself , i.e. ,by assuming the property does hold before proving it. So, the proof is fallacious.
The correct step (3) will be,
= [by using the laws of indices]
All other steps are correct.
Answer:
m = 7
m = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio s 3:8
other one is x:12
3:8=x:12
3/8=x/12
times both sides by 12
36/8=x
4 and 4/8=x
4.5=x
4 and 1/2=x
