Answer:

82 years

Step-by-step explanation:

J. Carter age at first inauguration = 52 ---- (missing details)

Required

Determine his age when he died.

Represent his age when he died with x.

So, we have the following expression:

$2 * Age\ at\ First\ Inauguration - x = 22$

[Substitute 52 for age at first inauguration]

$2 * 52 - x = 22$

[Multiply 2 by 52]

$104 - x = 22$

[Collect Like Terms]

$-x = 22 - 104$

[Make x the subject]

$x = 104 - 22$

$x = 82$

<em>Hence, he died at 82 years old.</em>

Answer:

x < 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 10 from both sides.

$-8x + 10 - 10 > -22 - 10$
$-8x > -32$

Step 2: Divide both sides by -8 and flip the inequality sign.

$\frac{-8x}{-8} > \frac{-32}{-8}$
$x < 4$

Therefore, the answer is x < 4.

I need to find surface area of a cylinder. Formula being used: S.A= L x W +

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

90π yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

the surface area of a cylinder is the sum of the lateral area and twice the aera of one end of the cylinder: π·d·l, where l represents the length of the cylinder. Here, the lateral surface area is π·6 yd·12 yd, or 72π yd².

The two ends add the following to the total surface area:

2·π·(d/2)², or 2π·d²/4.

Thus, the total surface area of the cyl. is

A = 2π·(6 yd)²/4 + 72π yd², or

A = 18π yd² + 72π yd² = 90π yd²

Note: Please check your source. L x W + 2pi ·r ^2 is incorrect.

For a certain river, suppose the drought length Y is the number of consecutive time intervals in which the water supply remains

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

a) There is a 9% probability that a drought lasts exactly 3 intervals.

There is an 85.5% probability that a drought lasts at most 3 intervals.

b)There is a 14.5% probability that the length of a drought exceeds its mean value by at least one standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric distribution is the number of failures expected before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials.

It has the following probability density formula:

$f(x) = (1-p)^{x}p$

In which p is the probability of a success.

The mean of the geometric distribution is given by the following formula:

$\mu = \frac{1-p}{p}$

The standard deviation of the geometric distribution is given by the following formula:

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{1-p}{p^{2}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$p = 0.383$

So

$\mu = \frac{1-p}{p} = \frac{1-0.383}{0.383} = 1.61$

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{1-p}{p^{2}}} = \sqrt{\frac{1-0.383}{(0.383)^{2}}} = 2.05$

(a) What is the probability that a drought lasts exactly 3 intervals?

This is $f(3)$

$f(x) = (1-p)^{x}p$

$f(3) = (1-0.383)^{3}*(0.383)$

$f(3) = 0.09$

There is a 9% probability that a drought lasts exactly 3 intervals.

At most 3 intervals?

This is $P = f(0) + f(1) + f(2) + f(3)$

$f(x) = (1-p)^{x}p$

$f(0) = (1-0.383)^{0}*(0.383) = 0.383$

$f(1) = (1-0.383)^{1}*(0.383) = 0.236$

$f(2) = (1-0.383)^{2}*(0.383) = 0.146$

Previously in this exercise, we found that $f(3) = 0.09$

So

$P = f(0) + f(1) + f(2) + f(3) = 0.383 + 0.236 + 0.146 + 0.09 = 0.855$

There is an 85.5% probability that a drought lasts at most 3 intervals.

(b) What is the probability that the length of a drought exceeds its mean value by at least one standard deviation?

This is $P(X \geq \mu+\sigma) = P(X \geq 1.61 + 2.05) = P(X \geq 3.66) = P(X \geq 4)$ .

We are working with discrete data, so 3.66 is rounded up to 4.

Either a drought lasts at least four months, or it lasts at most thee. In a), we found that the probability that it lasts at most 3 months is 0.855. The sum of these probabilities is decimal 1. So:

$P(X \leq 3) + P(X \geq 4) = 1$

$0.855 + P(X \geq 4) = 1$

$P(X \geq 4) = 0.145$

There is a 14.5% probability that the length of a drought exceeds its mean value by at least one standard deviation
