Answer:

z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the formula for z-score</u>

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{150-300}{50}\\ \\z=\frac{-150}{50}\\ \\z=-3

This tells us that the person's score of 150 puts him/her 3 standard deviations below the mean of 300.

Winning the jackpot in a particular lottery requires that you select the correct five numbers between 1 and 34 ​and, in a separa
Marina CMI [18]
<h3>The probability of winning the lottery is \frac{1}{10,295,472}</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total numbers in the jackpot = 1 to 34

Now, the number that needed to be drawn = 5

The number of ways , 5 number can be drawn from total 34 numbers :

^{34} C _5 =   \frac{34!}{5!(34-5)!}    = 278,256

Also, in separate draw, the correct number drawn  = 1

So, the number of ways that can be done  =  30 C 5 x  37  

= 278,256 x 37    = 10,295,472

Now, P(win)   =  \frac{\textrm{Total favorable attempts}}{\textrm{Total attempts}}  = \frac{1}{10,295,472}

Hence, the probability of winning the lottery is \frac{1}{10,295,472}

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Perimeter: 174.8 m

Area: 1,394 sq m

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the perimeter.

Before we start, let's calculate the circumference of the half-circles at the ends of the field.

The measurement says 2,000 cm, so let's convert it to 20 m for ease.

Circumference of a circle: πd, where d = diameter.. in our case d = 20 m

Circumference of a 20m diameter circle: 20π = 62.8 m

We have 2 half circles... so the perimeter of each half-circle will be: 31.4 m

We also have 800 cm measurement for the "height" of the seating areas... let's convert that in 8 m

We also need to find out the space between the seating area...  We know the whole rectangular pitch is 40 m, then we have to subtract the width of both seating areas (20 and 15 m)... so the space between them is 5m

So, starting with the upper left corner of the rectangular pitch, and working our way clockwise, we encounter the following lengths:

P = 40 + 31.4 + 8 + 10 + 8 + 5 + 8 + 25 + 8 + 31.4 = 174.8 m

The total perimeter is then of 174.8 m

For the area, we need to calculate the area of all forms:

Large rectangular pitch:

LR = 40 x 20 = 800 sq m

The two half circles, form a circle, so A = πr², where r is the radius, which is half the diameter.

AC = π (10)² = 100 π = 314 sq m

Then the seating areas:

SA1 = 25 x 8 = 200 sq m

SA2 = 10 x 8 - 80 sq m

Then, we add up everything:

TA = LR + AC + SA1 + SA2

TA = 800 + 314 + 200 + 80 = 1,394 sq m

2.67 repeating as a fraction in simplified
maksim [4K]

Answer:

2.\overline {67}=\frac{265}{99}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2.\overline {67}

Let

x=2.\overline {67}

x=2.676767...

100x=100(2.676767...)

100x=267.6767...

100x=265+2.6767...

100x=265+x

99x=265

x=\frac{265}{99}

Therefore,

  • 2.\overline {67}=\frac{265}{99}

Simplify completely 5x3+10x2+15x/5x
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

x²+2x+3....

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

5x3+10x2+15x/5x

To simplify this expression take out the common of the numerator:

5x is common in all three terms of the numerator:

Like,

5x(x²+2x+3)/5x

Now the value of the common and the denominator is same. Therefore 5x will be cancel out by 5x

Then the remaining term is:

= x²+2x+3

Thus the answer is  x²+2x+3....
