1 answer:

labwork [276]2 years ago

6 0

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given in the question, ABCDEF ~ QRSTUV,

Their corresponding sides will be proportional.

$\frac{AB}{QR}= \frac{BC}{RS}= \frac{CD}{ST}= \frac{DE}{TU}= \frac{EF}{UV}$

Now we choose $\frac{DE}{TU}=\frac{CD}{ST}$

From the figure attached,

$\frac{6}{2.4}=\frac{5.4}{ST}$

ST = $\frac{5.4\times 2.4}{6}$

ST = 2.16

Therefore, Option (1) is the correct option.

Suppose a NBA basketball player has 5% chance of picking up a foul every minute he plays. What is the probability that he will p

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

He wont foul out with probability 0.9093

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of fools he picked is a Binomial ditribution noted by X with parameters p = 0.05 and N = 48. The mean of this random variable is μ = np = 48*0.05 = 2.4 and the variance is σ² = np(1-p) = 2.4*0.95 = 2.28, hence its standard deviation is σ = √2.28 = 1.51.

Note that, if approximate probability is asked, we could just approximate X with a Normal random variable with mean 2.4 and standard deviation 1.51 (this can be done because of the central limit theorem). We will calculate the probability manually. He wont foul out if he picks 0,1,2,3 or 4 fouls, thus

$P(X \leq 4) = P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4) \\= 0.95^{48}+48*0.95^{47}*0.05+{48 \choose 2}*0.95^{46}*0.05^2+\\{48 \choose 3}*0.95^{45}*0.05^3+{48 \choose 4}*0.95^{44}*0.05^4 \\= 0.085+0.215+0.266+0.215+0.127 = 0.9093$

As a consecuence, he wont foul out with probability 0.9093.

Randy rented a rectangular storage shed with the volume of 357 ft does it sheds height is 8 and 1/2 ft and the width of is 6 ft

ollegr [7]

Answer:

7 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of shed, V = 357 feet³

Height of shed, H= 8 1/2 fts

Width of shed, W = 6 ft

Using the relation :

Volume = Length * width * height

357 = L * 6 ft * 17/2 feets

357 feets³ = L * 51 feets²

L = 357 feets³ / 51 feets²

Length, L = 7 feets

Problem 4: Solve the initial value problem

pishuonlain [190]

Separate the variables:

$y' = \dfrac{dy}{dx} = (y+1)(y-2) \implies \dfrac1{(y+1)(y-2)} \, dy = dx$

Separate the left side into partial fractions. We want coefficients a and b such that

$\dfrac1{(y+1)(y-2)} = \dfrac a{y+1} + \dfrac b{y-2}$

$\implies \dfrac1{(y+1)(y-2)} = \dfrac{a(y-2)+b(y+1)}{(y+1)(y-2)}$

$\implies 1 = a(y-2)+b(y+1)$

$\implies 1 = (a+b)y - 2a+b$

$\implies \begin{cases}a+b=0\\-2a+b=1\end{cases} \implies a = -\dfrac13 \text{ and } b = \dfrac13$

So we have

$\dfrac13 \left(\dfrac1{y-2} - \dfrac1{y+1}\right) \, dy = dx$

Integrating both sides yields

$\displaystyle \int \dfrac13 \left(\dfrac1{y-2} - \dfrac1{y+1}\right) \, dy = \int dx$

$\dfrac13 \left(\ln|y-2| - \ln|y+1|\right) = x + C$

$\dfrac13 \ln\left|\dfrac{y-2}{y+1}\right| = x + C$

$\ln\left|\dfrac{y-2}{y+1}\right| = 3x + C$

$\dfrac{y-2}{y+1} = e^{3x + C}$

$\dfrac{y-2}{y+1} = Ce^{3x}$

With the initial condition y(0) = 1, we find

$\dfrac{1-2}{1+1} = Ce^{0} \implies C = -\dfrac12$

so that the particular solution is

$\boxed{\dfrac{y-2}{y+1} = -\dfrac12 e^{3x}}$

It's not too hard to solve explicitly for y; notice that

$\dfrac{y-2}{y+1} = \dfrac{(y+1)-3}{y+1} = 1-\dfrac3{y+1}$

Then

$1 - \dfrac3{y+1} = -\dfrac12 e^{3x}$

$\dfrac3{y+1} = 1 + \dfrac12 e^{3x}$

$\dfrac{y+1}3 = \dfrac1{1+\frac12 e^{3x}} = \dfrac2{2+e^{3x}}$

$y+1 = \dfrac6{2+e^{3x}}$

$y = \dfrac6{2+e^{3x}} - 1$

$\boxed{y = \dfrac{4-e^{3x}}{2+e^{3x}}}$
