Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Plugin the number into sthe pythagroyean theorm (a²+b²=c²), with 3 replacing a, 4 replacing b, and x replacing c.

3²+4² = x²

9+16 = x²

25 = x²

√25 = √x²

x = 5

It's helpful to remember that if the opposite and adjacent sides of the triangle (in this case CB and AB) are the lengths 3 and 4, the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) is always equal to 5.

Write the 5th term in the expansion of (5x-y/2)^7

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

65625/4(x^5)(y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using binomial expansion

Formula: (n k) (a^k)(b ^(n-k))

Where (n k) represents n combination of k (nCk)

From the question k = 5 (i.e. 5th term)

n = 7 (power of expression)

a = 5x

b = -y/2

....................

Solving nCk

n = 7

k = 5

nCk = 7C5

= 7!/(5!2!) ------ Expand Expression

=7 * 6 * 5! /(5! * 2*1)

= 7*6/2

= 21 ------

.........................

Solving (a^k) (b^(n-k))

a = 5x

b = -y/2

k = 5

n = 7

Substituting these values in the expression

(5x)^5 * (-y/2)^(7-5)

= (3125x^5) * (-y/2)²

= 3125x^5 * y²/4

= (3125x^5)(y²)/4

------------------------------------

Multiplying the two expression above

21 * (3125x^5)(y²)/4

= 65625/4(x^5)(y²)

If 90 percent of automobiles in Orange County have both headlights working, what is the probability that in a sample of eight au

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function

$P(X=7)=(8C7)(0.9)^7 (1-0.9)^{8-7}=0.3826$

$P(X=8)=(8C8)(0.9)^8 (1-0.9)^{8-8}=0.4305$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 7) = P(X=7) +P(X=8)=0.3826 +0.4305=0.8131$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest "number of automobiles with both headligths working", on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=8, p=0.9)$
