Answer: (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A person has a 30% chance of winning a lottery ticket.

Probability of not getting the lottery ticket is 70%

For person to win at fifth ticket, it must fail in first four

So, the probability associated with it is

\Rightarrow P=(0.70)\times (0.70)\times (0.70)\times (0.70)\times (0.30)\\\\\Rightarrow P=(0.70)^4\cdot (0.3)

Hence, option (c) is correct.

You might need a maths degree for this one, I believe it’s 4 but don’t quote me on that.

A 25 foot ladder is leaning against a house. If the angle of Elevation of the ladder is 72 degrees:
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

1. 23.8

2. 7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>for the first blank</u>

use sin because x is opposite and 25 is hypotenuse

set up an equation:

sin(72)= (x/25)

multiply both sides by 25:

25(sin(72))= (x/25)25

25(sin(72))= x

multiply 25 by sin(72):

23.8 = x

<u>for the second blank</u>

use cos because x is adjacent and 25 us hypotenuse

set up an equation:

cos(72)= (x/25)

multiply both sides by 25:

25(cos(72))= (x/25)25

25(cos(72))= x

multiply 25 by cos(72):

7.7= x

A bowl is in the shape of a hemisphere (half a sphere) with a diameter of 8 inches. Find the volume of the bowl. Use 3.14 for pi
gayaneshka [121]

Answer: 267.947 (or 267.95) inches^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}.

To find your radius (r), divide the diameter of 8 inches by 2. <em>The radius is 4 inches.</em>

Plug in your numbers to the volume equation to get \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(4^3). The first step is to cube 4 (4*4*4) to get <em>64</em>. Now your equation is \frac{4}{3}(3.14)(64).

Multiply 3.14 and 64 to get <em>200.96</em>. The equation is now \frac{4}{3}(200.96) or \frac{4}{3} * \frac{200.96}{1}.

Multiply the numerators (4 * 200.96) and denominators (1 * 3) to get a final equation of \frac{803.84}{3}.

Finally, divide 803.84 by 3 to get the final answer of 267.947 in^3.

For this exercise assume that all matrices are ntimesn. Each part of this exercise is an implication of the form​ "If "statement
inna [77]

Answer:

C. True; by the Invertible Matrix Theorem if the equation Ax=0 has only the trivial solution, then the matrix is invertible. Thus, A must also be row equivalent to the n x n identity matrix.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Invertible matrix Theorem is a Theorem which gives a list of equivalent conditions for an n X n matrix to have an inverse. For the sake of this question, we would look at only the conditions needed to answer the question.

  • There is an n×n matrix C such that CA=I_n.
  • There is an n×n matrix D such that AD=I_n.
  • The equation Ax=0 has only the trivial solution x=0.
  • A is row-equivalent to the n×n identity matrix I_n.
  • For each column vector b in R^n, the equation Ax=b has a unique solution.
  • The columns of A span R^n.

Therefore the statement:

If there is an n X n matrix D such that AD=​I, then there is also an n X n matrix C such that CA = I is true by the conditions for invertibility of matrix:

  • The equation Ax=0 has only the trivial solution x=0.
  • A is row-equivalent to the n×n identity matrix I_n.

The correct option is C.
