Based on the equation given, it can be deduced that the value of the number will be 36.

Let the number be represented by x

Therefore, seven less than one-fourth of a number will be:

=(1/4 × x) - 7

= 0.25x - 7

Now, seven less than one-fourth of a number is 2 will be written as:

0.25x - 7 = 2

0.25x = 2 + 7

0.25x = 9

x = 9/0.25

x = 36

Inessa [10]

Answer:

3.98 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to know the formula for finding the height of a cylinder

$h=\frac{V}{\pi r^2}$

Now That we know our formula, we just need to put in our numbers and simplify

$h=\frac{5000}{\pi 20^2}$

$h=\frac{5000}{1256.637}$

$h=3.97887$

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds. A snail travels 6 centimeters in 6 seconds Both travel at constant speeds. Mai says,

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

No I dont agree with Mai. As both the slug and snail are moving with constant speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds.

Speed of slug = distance/ time = 3/3 = 1 cms^-1

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds.

Speed of snail = distance/ time = 6/6 = 1 cms^-1

Hence both have constant speeds only the time span for snail is increased which gives more distance it doesn't means that it had covered more distance.

i hope it will help you!

A group of tenth grade students responded to a survey that was asked which Math course they were currently enrolled in. The surv

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom-right most cell tells us that the total number of students that responded to the survey is 310 students.

To find the answer, we can go through each choice.

A. Females taking Geometry

Row 1 Column 2 tells us that 53 females are taking geometry. 53/310 is about 17%.

B. Females taking Algebra II.

Row 1 Colume 3 tells us that 62 females are taking Algebra II. 62/310 is 20%.

C. Males taking Geometry.

Row 2 Colume 2 tells us that 59 males are taking Geometry. 59/310 is about 19%. Choice C is correct.

D. Males taking Algebra I.

44 out of the total 310 respondents are male and is taking Algebra I. 44/310 is about 14%.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

a. X is a binomial random variable with n = 50 and p = 0.04

b. Y is a binomial random variable with n = 40 and p = 0.015

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

X: the number of US residents (out of 50) with blood type AB.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States

This means that $p = 0.04, n = 50$

Y: the number of Australians (out of 40) with blood type AB.

In Australia, only 1.5% of the population has blood type AB.

This means that $p = 0.015, n = 40$

Z: the total number of individuals (out of 90) with blood type AB.

Here

$n = 90, p = 0.04*\frac{50}{90} + 0.015*\frac{40}{90} = 0.0289$

Which of the following is true about the random variables X, Y, and Z?

Options a and b are true, while c is false.
