When we slice a three-dimensional object, we expose new faces that are two dimensional. The two-dimensional face is called _____

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Cross section

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross section refers to the new two dimensional face exposed when we slice through a three dimensional objects.

It can also be the surface or shape exposed by making a straight cut through something, especially at right angles to an axis.

Cross section is the plane surface(two-dimensional objects) formed by cutting across a solid shape (three-dimensional shape) especially perpendicular to its longest axis.

The one-time fling! Have you ever purchased an article of clothing (dress, sports jacket, etc.), worn the item once to a party,

Mama L [17]

Answer:

$(a)\ P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$(b)\ P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

$(c)\ P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 8$ --- 8 friends

$p = 15\%$ --- proportion that one-time fling

This question is an illustration of binomial probability, and it is represented as:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x* p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

Solving (a): P(x = 0) --- None has done one time fling

$P(x = 0) = ^8C_0* (15\%)^0 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-0}$

$P(x = 0) = 1* 1 * (1 - 0.15)^{8}$

$P(x = 0) = 0.85^8$

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

Solving (b): $P(x \ge 1)$

To do this, we make use of compliment rule:

$P(x = 0) + P(x \ge 1) =1$

Rewrite as:

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - P(x = 0)$

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - 0.2725$

$P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

Solving (c): $P(x\le 2)$ --- Not more than 2 has one time fling

This is calculated as:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

We have:

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$P(x = 1) = ^8C_1* (15\%)^1 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-1}$

$P(x = 1) = 8* (0.15) * (1 - 0.15)^7$

$P(x = 1) = 0.3847$

$P(x = 2) = ^8C_2* (15\%)^2 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-2}$

$P(x = 2) = 28* (0.15)^2 * (1-0.15)^6$

$P(x = 2) = 0.2376$

So:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.2725 + 0.3847 + 0.2376$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$

(a) A survey of the adults in a town shows that 8% have liver problems. Of these, it is also found that 25% are heavy drinkers,

jekas [21]

Answer:

The probability that the selected adult has liver problems is 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, from the data given, we want to calculate the probability that an adult selected at random has liver problems.

Let E(L) be the event that an adult has liver problems.

The probability is directly obtainable from the question and it is given as 8%

Thus, the probability that the selected adult has liver problems; P(L) = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08
