Answer:

The volume of the solid is 24 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The most general form of the equation of the volume of a pyramid is

V = (1/3)(base area)(height)

In this case,

V = (1/3)(18 in^2)(4 in) = 24 in^3

In a multiple choice quiz there are 5 questions and 4 choices for each question (a, b, c, d). Robin has not studied for the quiz

Ahat [919]

Answer:

a) There is a 18.75% probability that the first question that she gets right is the second question.

b) There is a 65.92% probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right.

c) There is a 10.35% probability that she gets the majority of the questions right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each question can have two outcomes. Either it is right, or it is wrong. So, for b) and c), we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

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 $\pi$ is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

Each question has 4 choices. So for each question, Robin has a $\frac{1}{4} = 0.25$ probability of getting ir right. So $\pi = 0.25$ . There are five questions, so $n = 5$ .

(a) What is the probability that the first question she gets right is the second question?

There is a 75% probability of getting the first question wrong and there is a 25% probability of getting the second question right. These probabilities are independent.

$P = 0.75(0.25) = 0.1875$

There is a 18.75% probability that the first question that she gets right is the second question.

(b) What is the probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right?

This is: $P = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{4} = 0.3955$

$P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{3} = 0.2637$

$P = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.3955 + 0.2637 = 0.6592$

There is a 65.92% probability that she gets exactly 1 or exactly 2 questions right.

(c) What is the probability that she gets the majority of the questions right?

That is the probability that she gets 3, 4 or 5 questions right.

$P = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{2} = 0.0879$

$P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.25)^{4}.(0.75)^{1} = 0.0146$

$P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.25)^{5}.(0.75)^{0} = 0.001$

$P = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0879 + 0.0146 + 0.001 = 0.1035$

There is a 10.35% probability that she gets the majority of the questions right.

Mimo sper 56.24 for a new binder $195 for a notebook, and

viktelen [127]

Answer:

251.24$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you just need to add the total cost together.

What we do know:

$B=56.24$

$NM=195$

$56.24+195=251.24$

$=251.24$

Hope this helps.

SOLVE: 12x - 4y = 48 (For y in terms of x)

Anna71 [15]

First, we subtract 12x from both sides. We then get -4y=-12x+48. We then divide this by -4 on both sides to get the y by itself. We then get that the equation is y=3x-12.
