Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The value of the probability P(x < 24) is 0.7895

<h3>How to calculate the probability P(x < 24)?</h3>

This is calculated as:

$P(x < 24) = \frac{n(x < 24)}{Total}$

So, we have:

$P(x < 24) = \frac{22 + 3 + 5}{22 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 4}$

Evaluate the sums

$P(x < 24) = \frac{30}{38}$

Evaluate the quotient

$P(x < 24) = 0.7895$

Hence, the value of the probability P(x < 24) is 0.7895

Find the exact value, without a

Ghella [55]

Answer:

√(2 + √3)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine 5π/12 = Sine (5π/6)/2

Recall

π = 180°

Thus,

Sine (5π/6)/2 = Sine (5×180 /6)/2

= Sine 150/2

Recall

Sine θ/2 = √(1 – Cos θ)/2

Thus,

Sine 150/2 = √(1 – Cos 150)/2

But, Cosine is negative in the 2nd quadrant. Thus,

Cos 150 = – Cos 30 = –√3/2

Thus,

√(1 – Cos 150)/2 = √(1 – –√3/2 )/2

= √(1 + √3/2 )/2

= √[(2 + √3)/2 ÷ 2]

= √[(2 + √3)/2 × 1/2]

= √(2 + √3)/4

Therefore,

Sine 5π/12 = √(2 + √3)/4

E temperature t of a metal sphere is inversely proportional to the distance from the centre of the sphere (the origin (0, 0, 0))

olasank [31]

(-x, -y, -z) the vector form (x, y, z) to the origin, in the direction of the greatest increase.

<h3>How to calculate temperature?</h3>

The quantity or amount of radiation contained in material or item, as measured by a temperature or sensed by touch and stated on a numerical scale.

The temperature T of a ball bearing is inverse to the length first from the origin, which we consider to be the center of the ball. The temperature at the exact location

(x, y, z) is a point on the sphere, the temperature at this point is given by

$T(x,y,z)= \dfrac{k}{(x^2 +y^2+z^2)^{1/2}}$

Where k is constant, then we have

T(1, 2, 2) = k/3 = 170

k = 510

$T(x,y,z)= \dfrac{510}{(x^2 +y^2+z^2)^{1/2}}$

Then we have

$\rm \triangledown T = \left ( -\dfrac{510x}{(x^2 +y^2+z^2)^{1/2}}, -\dfrac{510y}{(x^2 +y^2+z^2)^{1/2}}, \dfrac{510z}{(x^2 +y^2+z^2)^{1/2}} \right )\\\\\\\triangledown T (1, 2, 2) = -\dfrac{510}{27} (1, 2, 2) =-\dfrac{170}{9} (1, 2, 2)$

Then the direction will be from (1, 2, 2) to (4, 3, 5) will be (3, 1, 3)

So u = (3/√19, 1/√19, 3/√19)

Then we get

$\rm \triangledown T \cdot u = \dfrac{-170}{9}(1, 2, 2) \cdot \left (\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{19}}, \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{19}}, \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{19}} \right )\\\\\\\triangledown T \cdot u = - \dfrac{170}{9\sqrt{19}} (3 + 2 + 6)\\\\\\\triangledown T \cdot u = -\dfrac{1870}{9\sqrt{19}}$

The direction of the greatest inverse in the temperature is given by any vector parallel to and having the same direction $\triangledown$ T. (-x, -y, -z) the vector form (x, y, z) to the origin, in the direction of the greatest increase.

James bought 12 cookies and ate 3 of them. He ate ____% of the cookies.

morpeh [17]

12 - 3 = 9
So there are 9/12 cookies left.
So then John ate 3/12 cookies.
3/12 = 1/4
Convert into a decimal. .
1/4 = 0.25
0.25 = 25%
So, James bought 12 cookies and ate 3 of them. He ate 25% of the cookies.

The standard divination of a set of data is 9.5 the mean is 205 what is the margin of error

skelet666 [1.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error = critical value × standard deviation

We aren't given the critical value or any information to calculate it, so we need to make some assumptions. Assuming the data set is large enough to be approximated as normal, and that the confidence level is 95%, then the critical value is 1.96.

ME = 1.96 × 9.5

ME = 18.62

You may choose to round 1.96 to 2, in which case the margin of error is:

ME = 2 × 9.5

ME = 19
