Emily is making a punch that contains 75% apple juice and the rest ginger ale. The punch has 2 liters of ginger ale.

1 answer:

7 0

For this item, we may let x be the number or liters of apple juice present in the ginger ale. The total volume of the punch then becomes
total volume = 2 + x
Then, considering that 75% of this is apple juice,
x/(2 + x) = 0.75
x = 0.75(2 + x) = 1.5 + 0.75x
x = 1.5 + 0.75x
Also, for this item, the vaue of x is equal to 6 liters.

If the arc length of a sector in the unit circle is 4.2, what is the measure of the angle of the sector?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The unit circle is a circle with radius $r=1$ , so you have

$L=r\theta\implies4.2=\theta$

where $\theta$ is measured in radians, so $\theta\approx241^\circ$ .

In Grafton, a rural area in Vermont, the distance (in meters) between telephone poles has a uniform distribution between 40 and

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

a) 60% probability that the distance is environment friendly.

b) The mean of the distances between the telephone poles is 52.5 meters.

c) The standard deviation of the distance between the telephone poles is 7.22 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X lower than x is given by the following formula.

$P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}$

Uniform distribution between 40 and 65 meters.

This means that $a = 40, b = 65$

a) Any distance between poles greater than 50 meters is considered to be environment friendly. What is the probability that the distance is environment friendly?

This is $P(X > 50)$
