Answer:

(a) 2.22

(b) 1.3986

(c) 1.183

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> denote the number of women who consider themselves fans of professional baseball.

The proportion of women who consider themselves fans of professional baseball is, <em>p</em> = 0.37.

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 6 women are selected and each was asked if she considers herself a fan of professional baseball.

Each woman's reply is independent of the others.

The random variable <em>X</em> thus follows a binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 6 and <em>p</em> = 0.37.

(a)

Compute the mean of the binomial distribution as follows:

\text{Mean}=np=6\times 0.37=2.22

(b)

Compute the variance of the binomial distribution as follows:

\text{Variance}=np(1-p)=6\times 0.37\times (1-0.37)=1.3986

(c)

Compute the standard deviation of the binomial distribution as follows:

\text{Standard Deviation}=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{6\times 0.37\times (1-0.37)}=1.183

Damm [24]
Given:
Octagon-shaped patio
Side length = 24ft
apothem length = 60ft

Area of a regular octagon = 2 * a² * (1 + √2)
a = side length

A = 2 * (24ft)² * (1 + √2)
A = 2 * 576ft² * (1 + 1.414)
A = 2 * 576ft² * 2.414
A = 2,780.93 ft²

There is a strong positive linear correlation between rainfall and the number of oranges a tree produces. Does this mean that mo
8_murik_8 [283]
No; just because there is a correlation does not prove causation. 

The correlation says that as the amount of rainfall increases, the amount of oranges produced increases as well.  It does not state what causes it.

1. Create a circle. Show and explain the difference between the following:
liberstina [14]
1. 
a.
A secant line is a line which intersects the circle at 2 different points. 

A tangent line is a line which has only one point in common with the circle.

Check picture 1: The orange line s is a secant line, the blue line t is a tangent line.


b.
An inscribed angle is an angle formed by using 3 points of a circle. 

The main property of an inscribed angle is that its measure is half of the measure of the arc it intercepts.

Check picture 2: If  m(\angle KML)=\beta, then the measure of arc KL is 2 \beta.

A central angle is an angle whose vertex is the center of the circle, and the 2 endpoints of the rays are points of the circle.

The main property is: the measure of the central angle is equal to the measure of the arc it intercepts. 

Check picture 2

2.
To construct the inscribed circle of a triangle, we first draw the 3 interior angle bisectors of the triangle.
They meet at a common point called the incenter, which is the center of the inscribed circle.
We open the compass, from the incenter, so that it touches one of the sides at only one point. We then draw the circle. (picture 3)

To draw the circumscribed circle, we first find the midpoints of each side. We then draw perpendicular segments through these (the midpoints.) They meet  at one common point, which is the circumcenter: the center of the circumscribed circle.
We open the compass from the circumcenter to one of the vertices of the triangle. We draw the circle, and see that it circumscribes the triangle.

(picture 4)

3.

Given an equation of a circle: x^2-2x+y^2+6y+6=0.

To determine the center and the radius of the equation we must write the above equation in the form :

                              (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2.

Then, (a, b) is the center, and r is the radius of this circle. We do this process by completing the square.

Note that x^2-2x becomes a perfect square by adding 1, and 
y^2+6y becomes a perfect square by adding 9. 

Thus we have:

x^2-2x+y^2+6y+6=0\\\\(x^2-2x+1)+(y^2+6y+9)-4=0\\\\(x-1)^2+(y+3)^2=2^2

Thus, the center is (1, -3), and the radius is 2.

The radius of the pizza is \displaystyle{ \frac{131}{2}ft=65.5ft.

The surface of a circle with radius r is given by the formula \displaystyle{  A=\pi r^2,
and the circumference is given by the formula C=2πr.

Thus, the area of the whole pizza is given by \displaystyle{  A=\pi r^2= \pi\cdot65.5^2=4290.25 \pi (square ft).

Each of the 50 slices, has an area of \displaystyle{ \frac{4290.25 \pi}{50} =85.805 \pi (square ft)

Notice that the perimeter (the crust) of a slice is made of 2 radii, and the arc-like part.
The arc is 1/50 of the circumference, so it is \displaystyle{\frac{2 \pi r}{50} = \frac{2\cdot65.5\cdot \pi }{50}= 2.62 \pi.

So the perimeter of one slice is 65.5+65.5+2.62π=131+2.62π
