Answer:

12=0.005×w
the number is 2400

Step-by-step explanation:

An appropriate representation of the problem can be had by using a variable to represent "what number" and then using the math equivalent symbols for the English words. If "what number" is represented by w, then we want to translate ...

0.5% of w is 12 . . . . English

0.005 × w = 12 . . . . . . . matches choice 1

This can be solved by multiplying by 200

200(0.005w) = 200(12)

w = 2400

The number is 2400.

So firsty up, you need to have equal denominators IN order to do this equation.

1/3 and 5/12..

3x4=12

So the rule when changing denominators, you multiply 4 intop, so it will become 4/12, and 5/12 + 4/12 = 8/12, and,

8/12 + 1/12= 9/12 and 9/12 simplified is 3/4..

So the answer is 3/4.

Hope this helped.

Answer:

36.58% probability that one of the devices fail

Step-by-step explanation:

For each device, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it fails, or it does not fail. The probability of a device failling is independent of other devices. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

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

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

A total of 15 devices will be used.

This means that $n = 15$

Assume that each device has a probability of 0.05 of failure during the course of the monitoring period.

This means that $p = 0.05$

What is the probability that one of the devices fail?

This is $P(X = 1)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{15,1}.(0.05)^{1}.(0.95)^{14} = 0.3658$

36.58% probability that one of the devices fail

In the diagram, the radius of the outer circle is

JulijaS [17]

the value of x is 8 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Correct Question : In the diagram, the radius of the outer circle is 2x cm and the radius of the inside circle is 6 cm. The area of the shaded region is 220π cm2. What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box.

We have ,

the area of a circle = πr²

the outer circle area = $\pi(2x)^2 =4\pi x^2$

the inside circle area = $\pi (6)^2= 36\pi$

According to Question,

the outer circle area - the inside circle area = he shaded region

⇒ $\pi (4x^2)-36\pi =220\pi$

⇒ $x^2-9 =55$

⇒ $x^2=64$

⇒ $x =\sqrt{64}=8$

Therefore , the value of x is 8 cm.

Write the polynomial in standard form. Then name the polynomial on its degree and numbers of terms. 8-4x^2+10x^2+2x

mojhsa [17]

8-4x^2+10x^2+2x
8+6x^2+2x
6x^2+2x+8

This is a quadratic equation since it has three terms. Now, a=6 (that is, a≠0) and therefore, it is a quadratic trinomial equation.

The correct answer is C.)
