Given:

Point B has coordinates ​(4,1).

The​ x-coordinate of point A is -4.

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

To find:

The possible coordinates of point​ A.

Solution:

Let the y-coordinate of point A be y. Then the two points are A(-4,y) and B(4,1).

Distance formula:

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(1-y)^2}=10

Taking square on both sides, we get

(8)^2+(1-y)^2=100

(1-y)^2=100-64

(1-y)^2=36

Taking square root on both sides, we get

(1-y)=\pm \sqrt{36}

-y=\pm 6-1

y=1\mp 6

y=1-6 and y=1+6

y=-5 and y=7

Therefore, the possible coordinates of point​ A are either (-4,-5) or (-4,7).

How do I solve for d if d/M-3=R
nignag [31]

Answer:

d = (R+3)(M)

Step-by-step explanation:

d/M - 3 = R

Add 3 both sides

d/M = R+3

Multiply M both sides

d = (R+3)(M)

Hope this helps!

12% of children are nearsighted, but this condition often is not detected until they go to kindergarten. A school district tests
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

There is a 34.60% probability that 0 or 1 of them is nearsighted.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each children, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are nearsighted, or they are not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

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 combinatios 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.

In this problem, we have that:

12% of children are nearsighted. This means that p = 0.12.

A school district tests all incoming kindergarteners' vision. In a class of 18 kindergarten students, what is the probability that 0 or 1 of them is nearsighted?

There are 18 students, so n = 18

This probability is:

P = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

So

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

P(X = 0) = C_{18,0}.(0.12)^{0}.(0.88)^{18} = 0.1002

P(X = 1) = C_{18,1}.(0.12)^{1}.(0.88)^{17} = 0.2458

So

P = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1002 + 0.2458 = 0.3460

There is a 34.60% probability that 0 or 1 of them is nearsighted.
