Since 12 is hypotenuse, formula we would use is:
12^2=5^2+x^2
144=25+x^2
x^2= 144-25
x^2=119
x= √119
x=10.9087
Rounded to nearest tenth,
x=10.9
Good luck.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or older have a high school degree as their highest educational level.

This means that $p = 0.304$

100 such adults

This means that $n = 100$

Determine the probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is a. Exactly 32

This is P(X = 32).

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

$P(X = 32) = C_{100,32}.(0.304)^{32}.(0.696)^{68} = 0.0803$

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in

lukranit [14]

Answer: $\dfrac{26}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.

Proportion of success : $p=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{2}{3}$

Sample size taken by customs oﬃcial : n= 3

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.

Using Binomial probability formula :-

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

The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = $P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)$

$1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}$

Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = $\dfrac{26}{27}$
