Answer:

1.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

4 meters - 1.25 meters=2.75m is the length of the second one.

But when they ask how <u>much longer</u> , I think they want you to <u>compare</u> the two pieces meaning to get the answer you have to take 2.75m-1.25m=<u>1.5m</u><u> </u><u>that</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>how</u><u> </u><u>much</u><u> </u><u>longer</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>2nd</u><u> </u><u>fabric</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>longer</u><u> </u><u>than</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>other</u><u> </u><u>one</u><u>.</u>

<u>hope</u><u> </u><u>am</u><u> </u><u>right</u><u /><u />

Answer:

1.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

the fabric is 4 meters long

first piece is 1.25 meters long

second piece will be (4-1.25)=2.75 meters long

therefore the second piece is (2.75-1.25) meters longer

Consider two people being randomly selected. (For simplicity, ignore leap years.)
inna [77]

Answer:

(a) = \frac{144}{133225} \\\\(b) = \frac{1}{365}

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a) the probability that two people have a birthday on the 9th of any month.

Neglecting leap year, there are 365 days in a year.

There are 12 possible 9th in months that make a year calendar.

If two people have birthday on 9th; P(1st person) and P(2nd person).

=\frac{12}{365} X\frac{12}{365}  = \frac{144}{133225}

Part (b) the probability that two people have a birthday on the same day of the same month

P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month) + P(2 people selected not having birthday on  same day of same month) = 1

P(2 people selected not having birthday on  same day of same month):

= \frac{365}{365} X \frac{364}{365} =\frac{364}{365}

P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month) = 1-\frac{364}{365} \\\\= \frac{1}{365}

Help!<br> What would d be?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place

Step-by-step explanation:

find the diagonal line passing through the middle of the bottom rectangle:

a² + b² = c²

10² + 8² = c²

100 + 64 = 164

c² = 164

c = √164

c = 12.8062484729

find d:

a² + b² = c²

12² + 12.80624847298² = c²

144+ 164 = 308

c² = 308

c = √308

c = 17.5499287748

therefore d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place

For a binomial process, the probability of success is 40 percent and the number of trials is 5. Find the standard deviation.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095

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, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=5, p=0.4)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

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

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

The mean for the binomial distribution is given by:

E(X) =np=5*0.4=2

And the variance is given by:

Var(X) = np(1-p) =5*0.4*(1-0.4)=1.2

And the deviation is just the square root of the variance so we got:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095

The quadratic function h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150 models a balls height, in feet, over time, in seconds, after it is dropped from a 15
zzz [600]
In order to find height from where ball is dropped, you have to find height or h(t) when time or t is zero.So plug in t=0 into your quadratic equation:h(0) = -16.1(0^2) + 150h(0) = 0 +150h(0) = 150 ft is the height from where ball is dropped. When ball hits the ground, the height is zero. So plug in h(t) = 0 and solve for t.0 = -16.1t^2 + 15016.1 t^2 = 150t^2 = 150/16.1t = sqrt(150/16.1)t = ± 3.05Since time cannot be negative, your answer is positive solution i.e. t = 3.05

If a firm finds that increases in output lead to increases in long-run average total cost, then it must be experiencing ________
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is;

C diseconomies of scale; coordination problems

Step-by-step explanation:

Dis-economies of scale is in effect where the average cost of production of  firm increases as it increases its inputs towards producing more. That is as the production rate increases, the unit cost of production also increases

Increase in the mean cost of production as the production rate increases is an indication of diminishing returns to increasing scale of production

Dis-economies of scale can be caused by Coordination problems

Difficulties in Co-ordination and monitoring . Where there is growth, the monitoring and coordination requirements becomes more complex, there is also the tendency for increased inefficiency and increase in average cost as the firm expands
