The equation for the cross section of a parabolic satellite television dish is y = 1/45 x2, measured in inches. How far is the f

patriot [66]

Answer:

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a parabola is:

y − k = 1/(4p) (x − h)²

where (h, k) is the vertex and p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

1/(4p) = 1/45

4p = 45

p = 11.25

The distance from the vertex to the focus is 11.25 inches.

A manufacturer of matches randomly and independently puts 23 matches in each box of matches produced. The company knows that one

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

0.9855 or 98.55%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of each individual match being flawed is p = 0.008. The probability that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw is the same as the probability of a matchbox having exactly one or exactly zero matches with a flaw:

$P(X\leq 1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-p)^{23}+23*(1-p)^{23-1}*p\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-0.008)^{23}+23*(1-0.008)^{23-1}*0.008\\P(X\leq 1)=0.8313+0.1542\\P(X\leq 1)=0.9855$

The probability that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw is 0.9855 or 98.55%.
