Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation: Since 3x+5 is equal to 50, you can write 3x+5=50, and 3x=45, x=15.

Naval intelligence reports that 4 enemy vessels in a fleet of 17 are carrying nuclear weapons. If 9 vessels are randomly targete

icang [17]

Answer:

0.7588 = 75.88% probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed

Step-by-step explanation:

The vessels are destroyed without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

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

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

In this question:

Fleet of 17 means that $N = 17$

4 are carrying nucleas weapons, which means that $k = 4$

9 are destroyed, which means that $n = 9$

What is the probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed?

This is:

$P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1)$

In which

$P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 0) = h(0,17,9,4) = \frac{C_{4,0}*C_{13,9}}{C_{17,9}} = 0.0294$

$P(X = 1) = h(1,17,9,4) = \frac{C_{4,1}*C_{13,8}}{C_{17,9}} = 0.2118$

Then

$P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0294 + 0.2118 = 0.2412$

$P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X \leq 1) = 1 - 0.2412 = 0.7588$

0.7588 = 75.88% probability that more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed

Helpppp meeeee outttttt pleaseeeee ASAPPPP!!!!

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf sin\ C =\frac{40}{41}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find out the value of sinC using the given triangle . Here we can see that the sides of the triangle are 40 , 41 and 9 .

We know that the ratio of sine is perpendicular to hypontenuse .

$\sf\longrightarrow sin\theta =\dfrac{ perpendicular}{hypontenuse}$

Here we can see that the side opposite to angle C is 40 , therefore the perpendicular of the triangle is 40. And the side opposite to 90° angle is 41 . So it's the hypontenuse . On using the ratio of sine ,

$\sf\longrightarrow sinC =\dfrac{ p}{h}\\\\\sf\longrightarrow sin\ C =\dfrac{AB}{AC}$

Substitute the respective values ,

$\sf\longrightarrow \boxed{\blue{\sf sin\ C =\dfrac{40}{41}}}$

<u>Hence the required answer is 40/41.</u>
