Answer:

40,640,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I solved this equation was by dividing 320,000,000 by 1,000 (to make smaller numbers). Then, I got 320,000. From here, I was able to multiply 320,000 by 127 (the number found in this specific study group) to get 40,640,000. Or, you could just multiply 320,000,000 by 0.127 (the decimal equivalent to 127/1000) to get the same answer. Please mark Brainliest if this helped :)

Answer:

40,640,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size is 1000 and 127 wear contacts so

127/1000 = x/320000000

(127 * 320000000)/1000 = x

40,640,000 = x

Hello!

$\large\boxed{x^{4}}$

Recall that:

$\sqrt[z]{x^{y} }$ is equal to $x^{\frac{y}{z} }$ . Therefore:

$\sqrt[3]{x^{2} } = x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

There is also an exponent of '6' outside. According to exponential properties, when an exponent is within an exponent, you multiply them together. Therefore:

$(x^{\frac{2}{3} })^{6} = x^{\frac{2}{3}* 6 } = x^{\frac{12}{3} } = x^{4}$

<h3><u>Given</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

Perimeter of parallelogram = 66 ft

One side,a = 3x + 1

Other side,b = 2x - 3

Find the longest side of a parallelogram.

<h3><u>Formula</u><u> </u><u>used</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 ( a + b )

<h3><u>Solution:-</u><u> </u></h3>

We know that,

Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 ( a + b )

★ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get:

⇒ 66 = 2 ( 3x + 1 + 2x - 3 )

⇒ 66 = 2 ( 5x - 2 )

⇒ 66/2 = 5x - 2

⇒ 33 = 5x - 2

⇒ 5x - 2 = 33

⇒ 5x = 33 + 2

⇒ 5x = 35

⇒ x = 35/5

⇒ x = 7 ft

Now,

One side,a = 3x + 1

★ Putting the value of x

⇒ 3 × 7 + 1

⇒ 21 + 1

⇒ 22 ft

Other side,b = 2x - 3

★ Putting the value of x

⇒ 2 × 7 - 3

⇒ 14 - 3

⇒ 11 ft

Hence,the longest Side of given parallelogram is 22 ft ( 3x + 1 ) .

Instructions: Problem 1 ! Find the missing angle in the image below. Do not include spaces in your answers

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The 100 degree angle is supplementary to angle CED. This means CED will end up being 80 degrees. Since the angles in all triangles equate to 180 degrees 80 + 60 + angle D must equal 180 degrees. Therefore, angle D has to be 40 degrees.

Usimov [2.4K]

Complete question :

When Hiroto is writing, there is 0.92 probability that there will be no spelling mistakes on a page. One day, Hiroto writes an essay that is 11 pages long.

Assuming that Hiroto is equally likely to have a spelling mistake on each of the 11 pages, what is the probability that he will have a spelling mistake on at least one of the pages?

Answer:

0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The question meets the requirement for a binomial probability distribution :

Recall:

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

Given :

Probability of making a spelling mistake = 1 - p(not making) = 1 - 0.92 = 0.08

Hence,

p = 0.08 ; q = 0.92

n = 11

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

P(x = 0) = 11C0 * 0.08^0 * 0.92^11

P(x = 0) = 1 * 1 * 0.3996373778857415671808

P(x = 0) = 0.399

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.399

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.601

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.60
