A watermelon was ejected from a catapult reaching a maximum height of 20 ft. The watermelon left the catapult when it was 4 ft o

ff the ground and hit the ground 45 ft away from the catapult. Can the equation that models the path of the watermelon be written given the information in the problem? If so, find the equation. If not, state what other information is needed.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the equation cannot be written with the given information. The distance from the catapult when the watermelon reached the maximum height is needed. Since the watermelon did not start on the ground, it cannot be assumed that the maximum was reached half the distance to the landing point.

if you roll a fair 6-sided die 9 times, what is the probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4?
Kay [80]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • There are 9 rolls, hence n = 9.
  • Of the six sides, 2 are 3 or 4, hence p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333

The desired probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

Then

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

P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026

P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117

Then:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

Simplify (x - y + 1) - (x + y - 1)
andrey2020 [161]
First, distribute the minus sign across the second set. So you have:

x - y + 1 - x - y + 1

Now, we combine like terms:
x-x=0
-y-y=-2y
1+1=2

So we have -2y+2

Hope that helps.

Mr. Thomas spent $1,600 of his savings on a television set and 2/5 of the remainder on a refrigerator. He had 1/3 of his origina
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount spent on television = $ 1600

Le The total amount in the account = $ A

so, The amount left in account after spent on television = $ A - $ 1600

The amount spent on refrigerator = \frac{2}{5} × ( A - 1600 )

The amount left in his saving account = \frac{1}{3} × A

Now, According to question

A - ( 1600 +  \frac{2}{5} × ( A - 1600 ) ) =  \frac{1}{3} × A

Or, A -  \frac{1}{3} × A = 1600 +   \frac{2}{5} × ( A - 1600 )

Or, \frac{2}{3} × A = 1600 + \frac{2}{5} × A - \frac{2}{5} × 1600

or,  \frac{2}{3} × A -  \frac{2}{5} × A = 1600 - 640

Or,  \frac{10 - 6 }{15} × A = 960

or,  \frac{4}{15} × A = 960

∴ A = \frac{960\times 15}{4}

I.e A = 3600

So, The amount in the saving account  is $3600

∵ , The amount spent on refrigerator = \frac{2}{5} × ( 3600 - 1600 )

Or,  The amount spent on refrigerator = \frac{2}{5} × 2000

I.e  The amount spent on refrigerator = $ 800

Hence The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 . Answer
