What is the length of the missing side of the triangle?

A box of Georgia peaches has 3 bad and 12 good peaches. (a) If you make a peach cobbler of 12 peaches randomly selected from the

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a) 0.21% probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

b) 99.79% probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler

c) 7.91% probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the peaches are chosen is not important. So the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

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

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

(a) If you make a peach cobbler of 12 peaches randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler?

Desired outcomes:

12 good peaches, from a set of 12. So

$D = C_{12,12} = \frac{12!}{12!(12 - 12)!} = 1$

Total outcomes:

12 peaches, from a set of 15. So

$T = C_{15,12} = \frac{15!}{12!(15 - 12)!} = 455$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{455} = 0.0021$

0.21% probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

(b) What is the probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler?

Either there are no bad peaches, or these is at least 1. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 100%. So

p + 0.21 = 100

p = 99.79

99.79% probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler

(c) What is the probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cob- bler?

Desired outcomes:

2 bad peaches, from a set of 3.

One good peach, from a set of 12.

$D = C_{3,2}*C_{12,1} = \frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!}*\frac{12!}{1!(12 - 1)!} = 36$

Total outcomes:

12 peaches, from a set of 15. So

$T = C_{15,12} = \frac{15!}{12!(15 - 12)!} = 455$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{36}{455} = 0.0791$

7.91% probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

2. One angle is one less than six times the measure of

Illusion [34]

The equations used to find the measure of each angle in degrees is x + y = 90 and x = 6y - 1

The two complementary angles are 77 degrees and 13 degrees

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that two angles are complementary angles

Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees

Let one of the angle be "x" and the other angle be "y"

Therefore,

x + y = 90 ------ eqn 1

Also given that,

One angle is one less than six times the measure of another

one angle = six times the other angle - 1

x = 6y - 1 ------ eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

6y - 1 + y = 90

Thus the above equation is used to find the measure of each angle in degrees

Solve the above equation

6y + y - 1 = 90

7y - 1 = 90

7y = 91

y = 13

Substitute y = 13 in eqn 2

x = 6(13) - 1

x = 78 - 1

x = 77

Thus the two complementary angles are 77 degrees and 13 degrees

“on the following checking account record, enter the figures and add or subtract them to keep the running total correct”

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The running total is $95.27.

There are two types of records, Active and Inactive. There are also two major classifications, Vital and Important.

<h3>Why is record keeping important?</h3>

In order to create reliable financial statements, you need good records. These consist of balance sheets and income (profit and loss) statements. These statements might assist you in managing your business and dealing with your bank or creditors.

He opened the account with $299.88. He subsequently wrote many cheques, from which you deduct the sum of 299,88.

He deposited a check, thus 299.88-90.48= 209.40, 209.40 - 65.00= 144.40, and then he added $381.33 to 144.40 to get 525.73.

then you need to deduct more since he wrote more checks.

Consequently, 525.73-54.47=471.26, and 471.26-375.99=95.27, giving him a balance of $95.27.

Good Records entail documents comprising recorded data that show the efficacy of the quality management system, independent of the format or feature.
