The probability that both are nervous around strangers is (1/5)(1/5)=1/25

The probability that at least one is nervous around strangers is 1 - 1/25 = 24/25.

Answer: Probability both are nervous around strangers=0.04

Probability at least one is nervous around strangers = 0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability of the population of a large country is nervous around strangers : p= 20%=0.20

Sample size : n=2

Let x be the number of success.

Using Binomial , P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The probability both are nervous around strangers:-

P(x=2)=^2C_2(0.2)^2(0.8)^{0}=(0.2)^2=0.04

The probability at least one is nervous around strangers :-

P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\=1-^2C_0(0.2)^0(0.8)^{2}\\\\1-(0.8)^2=1-0.64=0.36

hello could you please help me with this math problem with full explanation which I am unable to solve? Thanks.
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

8 / sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp / adj

tan A = BC / AC

tan 30 = BC / 8

8 tan 30 = BC

8 * sqrt(3)/3 = BC

8/3 sqrt(3) = BC

We can say that because 3 times 9, which would equal 27, could be the same as 4*9, which would be 36. So Pat needs 36 pints of green paint. Down below is a tape diagram so you can see what it is.

Subtract these 2 equations,

5x-5x +3y-y = -4-6

2y = -10

y = -5

-5 is your answer.
