'll use the binomial approach. We need to calculate the probabilities that 9, 10 or 11
<span>people have brown eyes. The probability that any one person has brown eyes is 0.8, </span>
<span>so the probability that they don't is 1 - 0.8 = 0.2. So the appropriate binomial terms are </span>
<span>(11 C 9)(0.8)^9*(0.2)^2 + (11 C 10)(0.8)^10*(0.2)^1 + (11 C 11)(0.8)^11*(0.2)^0 = </span>
<span>0.2953 + 0.2362 + 0.0859 = 0.6174, or about 61.7 %. Since this is over 50%, it </span>
<span>is more likely than not that 9 of 11 randomly chosen people have brown eyes, at </span>
<span>least in this region. </span>
<span>Note that (n C r) = n!/((n-r)!*r!). So (11 C 9) = 55, (11 C 10) = 11 and (11 C 0) = 1.</span>
Answer: The answer is 381.85 feet.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that a window is 20 feet above the ground. From there, the angle of elevation to the top of a building across the street is 78°, and the angle of depression to the base of the same building is 15°. We are to calculate the height of the building across the street.
This situation is framed very nicely in the attached figure, where
BG = 20 feet, ∠AWB = 78°, ∠WAB = WBG = 15° and AH = height of the bulding across the street = ?
From the right-angled triangle WGB, we have
and from the right-angled triangle WAB, we have'
Therefore, AH = AB + BH = h + GB = 361.85+20 = 381.85 feet.
Thus, the height of the building across the street is 381.85 feet.
Step-by-step answer:
Given:
mean, mu = 200 m
standard deviation, sigma = 30 m
sample size, N = 5
Maximum deviation for no damage, D = 100 m
Solution:
Z-score for maximum deviation
= (D-mu)/sigma
= (100-200)/30
= -10/3
From normal distribution tables, the probability of right tail with
Z= - 10/3
is 0.9995709, which represents the probability that the parachute will open at 100m or more.
Thus, by the multiplication rule, the probability that all five parachutes will ALL open at 100m or more is the product of the individual probabilities, i.e.
P(all five safe) = 0.9995709^5 = 0.9978565
So there is an approximately 1-0.9978565 = 0.214% probability that at least one of the five parachutes will open below 100m
you know 1 gallon is 16 cups.
1/2 a gallon will be 8 cups.
So, its asking how much is 1 1/2 gallon to cups. Add 16+8= 24.
24 is the answer
The answer in decimal form should be 5.3 if you round it up
