Factor this polynomial expression. x^2-16

V125BC [204]

Hi,

We know that:

a² -- b² = (a -- b)(a + b).

With a = x, and b = 4, we have:

x² -- 16 = x² -- 4² = (x -- 4)(x + 4).

As simple as that. Have you understood ?

An example problem in a Statistics textbook asked to find the probability of dying when making a skydiving jump.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

(a) 0.999664

(b) 15052

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data of recent years, there were about 3,000,000 skydiving jumps and 21 of them resulted in deaths.

So, the probability of death is $\frac{21}{3000000}==0.000007$ .

Assuming, this probability holds true for each skydiving and does not change in the present time.

So, as every skydiving is an independent event having a fixed probability of dying and there are only two possibilities, the diver will either die or survive, so, all skydiving can be regarded as is Bernoulli's trial.

Denoting the probability of dying in a single jump by $q$ .

$q=7\times 10^{-6}=0.000007$ .

So, the probability of survive, $p=1-q$

$\Rightarrow p=1-7\times 10^{-6}=0.999993.$

(a) The total number of jump he made, n=48

Using Bernoulli's equation, the probability of surviving in exactly 48 jumps (r=48) out of 48 jumps (n=48) is

$=\binom(n,r)p^rq^{n-r}$

$=\binom(48,48)(0.999993)^{48}(0.000007)^{48-48}$

$=(0.999993)^{48}=0.999664$ (approx)

So, the probability of survive in 48 skydiving is 0.999664,

(b) The given probability of surviving =90%=0.9

Let, total $n$ skydiving jumps required to meet the surviving probability of 0.9.

So, By using Bernoulli's equation,

$0.9=\binom {n }{r} p^rq^{n-r}$

Here, r=n.

$\Rightarrow 0.9=\binom{n}{n}p^nq^{n-n}$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=p^n$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=(0.999993)^n$

$\Rightarrow \ln(0.9)=n\ln(0.999993)$ [ taking $\log_e$ both sides]

$\Rightarrow n=\frac {\ln(0.9)}{\ln(0.999993)}$

$\Rightarrow n=15051.45$

The number of diving cant be a fractional value, so bound it to the upper integral value.

Hence, the total number of skydiving required to meet the 90% probability of surviving is 15052.

plssssss awnser sooooonnnnn i really need this done fast! 25 points and brainliest if its right and pls dont put a dumb awser li

Answer:

I think that the altimeter would read as '0'. Positive readings would show that she was above sea level and negative readings we would show that she was below sea level. I hope that this helps

You fly a hot air balloon 3.5 miles above the ground. What is the measure of BD⌢, the portion of Earth that you can see? Round y

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$\Delta s \approx 334.545\,m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that Earth is a sphere, the following trigonometric diagram is constructed and presented below. The central angle is given by this inverse trigonometric equation:

$\theta = 2\cdot \cos^{-1} \left(\frac{r}{r+h} \right)$

$\theta = 2\cdot \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{4000\,mi}{4000\,mi+3.5\,mi} \right)$

$\theta = 4.792^{\circ}$

The distance of the portion of Earth that can be seen is:

$\Delta s = \frac{4.792^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\cdot (2\pi)\cdot (4000\,mi)$

$\Delta s \approx 334.545\,m$
