- [Right Triangle Only] sin∅ = opposite over hypotenuse
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
We have a right triangle. We can use trig to find the angle.
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
Angle = <em>x</em>
Opposite = 15
Hypotenuse = 23
<u>Step 3: Find Angle </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: sinx° = 15/23
- Inverse: x° = sin⁻¹(15/23)
- Evaluate: x = 40.7057°
Answers:
- Total equation: x+y = 80
- Legs equation: 2x+4y = 248
- How many ducks? 36
- How many cows? 44
====================================================
Further explanation:
- x = number of ducks
- y = number of cows
x+y = 80 is the total equation (ie the head count equation) since we assume each animal has 1 head, and there are 80 heads total.
That equation can be solved to y = 80-x after subtracting x from both sides.
The legs equation is 2x+4y = 248 because...
- 2x = number of legs from all the ducks only
- 4y = number of legs from all the cows only
- 2x+4y = total number of legs from both types of animals combined
We're told there are 248 legs overall, so that's how we ended up with 2x+4y = 248
------------
Let's plug y = 80-x into the second equation and solve for x.
2x+4y = 248
2x+4( y ) = 248
2x+4( 80-x ) = 248
2x+320-4x = 248
-2x+320 = 248
-2x = 248-320
-2x = -72
x = -72/(-2)
x = 36
There are 36 ducks
Now use this x value to find y
y = 80-x
y = 80-36
y = 44
There are 44 cows.
------------
Check:
36 ducks + 44 cows = 80 animals total
36*2 + 44*4 = 72 + 176 = 248 legs total
The answers are confirmed.
Answer:
The distribution is
b) skewed.
The sum of the probabilities is:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
In a binomial distribution, p represents the probability of success. Success in the sense that the event of interest happens. In the model presented, the probability of success p is 0.4 since we are informed that 40% of adults watch a particular television show.
The next quantity of significance in a binomial model is the number of independent trials, n. In our case there are 6 independent trials since we are told that 6 adults were selected at random. If we let the random variable K denote the number of adults out of the 6 who watch the television show, then K is a binomial random variable with parameters;
n = 6 and p = 0.4
A binomial distribution is only symmetric when either p is 0.5 or n is large. In the presented scenario none of this conditions is met since p is 0.4 while n is just 6 which is relatively small. Thus we conclude that the distribution is not symmetric but rather skewed.
The sum of the probabilities is any discrete probability distribution such as the bernoulli, binomial, negative binomial, poisson, or the geometric distribution is always equal to 1. That's a rule of thumb.
