Answer:

It will take the boulder approximately 4.28 seconds to hit the road

Step-by-step explanation:

The given height of the cliff from which the boulder falls, h = 90 feet

The equation that can be used to find the time it takes the boulder to fall is h = u·t + (1/2)·g·t²

Where;

h = The height of the cliff = 90 ft.

u = The initial velocity of the boulder = 0 m/s (The boulder is assumed to be at rest when it falls)

g - The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

t = How long it will take for the boulder to hit the road below

Plugging in the values gives;

90 = 0 × t + (1/2)×9.81×t² = 4.905·t²

∴ t = √(90/4.905) ≈ 4.28

The time it takes the boulder to hit the road, t ≈ 4.28 seconds.

The distance between itahari and Damak is
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

8 km by motorbike.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between itahari and Damak is  42 km.

Mr. Dhamala travelled 18.325 km by a  bus / 15.675 km by a taxi and the remaining distance by a motorbike.

Let he covered x distance by motorbike. So,

Remaining distance = Total distance -(distance covered by bus + distance by taxi)

= 42 -(18.325 +15.675 )

= 42-34

= 8 km

So, he travelled 8 km by motorbike.

MUSIC A song has 28 beats in 4 seconds. At this rate, how many beats are there in 30 seconds?
Deffense [45]
In 4 seconds, number of beats = 28
In 1 sec., it is = 28/4 = 7

Now, In 30 seconds, it would be: 30 * 7 = 210

In short, Your Answer would be: 210 beats

Hope this helps!

Suppose the number of radios in a household has a binomial distribution with parameters n=11 and p=40%. Find the probability of
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(x=r) = nCr × q^(n-r) × p^r

From the information given,

n = 11

p = 40% = 40/100 = 0.4

q = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

x represent the number of radios

a) P( x = 1) or P(x = 9)

P(x = 1) = 11C1 × 0.6^(11-1) × 0.4^1

P(x = 1) = 0.027

P(x = 9) = 11C9 × 0.6^(11-9) × 0.4^9

P(x = 9) = 0.0052

P( x = 1) or P(x = 9) = 0.027 + 0.0052 = 0.0322

b) P(x lesser than or equal to 7) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) + P(x = 5) + P(x = 6)

P(x = 0) = 11C0 × 0.6^(11-0) × 0.4^0 = 0.004

P(x = 1) = 0.027

P(x = 2) = 11C2 × 0.6^(11-2) × 0.4^2 = 0.089

P(x = 3) = 11C3 × 0.6^(11-3) × 0.4^3 = 0.177

P(x = 4) = 11C4 × 0.6^(11-4) × 0.4^4 = 0.24

P(x = 5) = 11C5 × 0.6^(11-5) × 0.4^5 = 0.22

P(x = 6) = 11C6 × 0.6^(11-6) × 0.4^6 = 0.15

P(x = 7) = 11C7 × 0.6^(11-7) × 0.4^7 = 0.15

P(x lesser than or equal to 7) = 0.004 + 0.027 + 0.089 + 0.177 + 0.24 + 0.22 + 0.15 + 0.07 = 0.977

c) P(x greater than or equal to 5) = 1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 4) = 1 - (0.004 + 0.027 + 0.089 + 0.177 + 0.24) = 1 - 0.537 = 0.463

d) P(x lesser than 9) = P(x lesser than or equal to 7) + P(x = 8)

P(x = 8) = 11C8 × 0.6^(11-8) × 0.4^8 = 0.02

P(x lesser than 9) = 0.977 + 0.02 = 0.997

e. P(x greater than 7) = 1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 7) = 1 - 0.977 = 0.023
