In a group of 40 people, 27 can speak English and 25 can speak Spanish. How many can speak

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Information \: provided \:  with  \: us }}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ In a group of 40 people, 27 can speak English and 25 can speak Spanish.

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{What \: we \:  have  \: to \: find ? }}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ The required number of people who can speak both English and Spanish .

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Assumption}}}}}\: \bigstar}

<u>Consider</u> ,

➻ A → Set of people who speak English.

➻ B → Set of people who speak Spanish

➻ A∩B → Set of people who can speak both English and Spanish

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Given}}}}}\: \bigstar}

  • ➻ n (A) = 27

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Now}}}}}\: \bigstar}

➻ n(A∪B) = n(A) + n (B) - n(A∩B)

➻ 40 = 27 + 25 - n (A∩B)

➻ 40 = 52 - n (A∩B)

➻ n (A∩B) = 52 - 40

➻ ∴ n (A∩B) = 12

\qquad {\: \:\bigstar \:  {\underline{\overline{\boxed{\bf{Therefore}}}}}\: \bigstar}

∴ Required Number of persons who can speak both English and Spanish are <u>12 .</u>

➻ n(A∪B) = n(A) + n (B) - n(A∩B)

➻ 40 = 27 + 25 - 12

➻ 40 = 52 - 12

➻ 40 = 40

➻ ∴ L.H.S = R.H.S

A study showed that 25% of the students drive themselves to school. Based on the suggested probability, in a class of 18 student
Gwar [14]

Answer:

B) 0.283

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

25% of the students drive themselves to school.

This means that p = 0.25

Class of 18 students

This means that n = 18

What would be the probability that at least 6 students drive themselves to school?

This is

P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)

In which

P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

So

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

P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{18} = 0.006

P(X = 1) = C_{15,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{17} = 0.034

P(X = 2) = C_{15,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{16} = 0.096

P(X = 3) = C_{15,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{15} = 0.17

P(X = 4) = C_{15,4}.(0.25)^{4}.(0.75)^{14} = 0.213

P(X = 5) = C_{15,5}.(0.25)^{5}.(0.75)^{13} = 0.199

P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.006 + 0.034 + 0.096 + 0.17 + 0.213 + 0.199 = 0.718

P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.718 = 0.282

Closest option is B, just a small rounding difference.

I really need help I would appreciate it if someone could help me
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

a) The vertex of the graph is (h,k) = (0, 31), b) a = -16, c) The equation of the parabola is f(t) = -16\cdot t^{2}+31.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The tennis ball experiments a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from Earth's rotation and air viscocity are negligible. The height of the ball in time is represented by a second order polynomial. Hence, the vertex of the parabola is the initial point highlighted in graph.

The vertex of the graph is (h,k) = (0, 31).

b) If we know that (h,k) = (0, 31), f(t) = a\cdot (t-h)^{2} + k and (t,f(t)) = (1,15), then the value of a is:

f(t) = a\cdot (t-h)^{2} + k

15 = a\cdot (1-0)^{2}+31

15 = a\cdot 1 + 31

a = 15-31

a = -16

c) The equation of the parabola is f(t) = -16\cdot t^{2}+31.

Answer:

The answer for this question is 2,437.5 or rounded 2,438.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 goes into 19.5, 3.9 times to get that take 19.5÷5 to get 3.9. Then take 625×3.9 to get the total of 2,437.5 miles for your answer.
