Medical statistics indicate that 20% of the population will have cancer in their lifetimes. A group of 12 babies is selected at random. a. What is the probability that exactly 5 in the group will get cancer in their lifetime? b. What is the probability that at least 5 will get cancer in their lifetime? Record the answer to four decimal places (x.Xxxx)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 5.3%

b. 7.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to:

n = 12

p = 0.2

q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

We apply the binomial formula:

p (x) = nCx * p ^ x * p ^ (n-x)

a. P (x = 5) = 12C5 * 0.2 ^ 5 * 0.8 ^ (12-5)

12C5 = 12! / (5! * (12 -5)!) = 792

P (x = 5) = 792 * 0.2 ^ 5 * 0.8 ^ (12-5)

P (x = 5) = 0.053

which means that the probability is 5.3%

b. P (x => 5) = 1 - p (x <5)

P (x => 5) = 1 - p (x <= 4)

P (x => 5) = 1 - [P (x = 0) + P (x = 1) + P (x = 2) + P (x = 3) + P (x = 4)]

P (x = 0) = 12C0 * 0.2 ^ 0 * 0.8 ^ (12-0) = 0.069

P (x = 1) = 12C1 * 0.2 ^ 1 * 0.8 ^ (12-1) = 0.206

P (x = 2) = 12C2 * 0.2 ^ 2 * 0.8 ^ (12-2) = 0.283

P (x = 3) = 12C3 * 0.2 ^ 3 * 0.8 ^ (12-3) = 0.236

P (x = 4) = 12C4 * 0.2 ^ 4 * 0.8 ^ (12-4) = 0.133

replacing:

P (x => 5) = 1 - [0.069 + 0.206 + 0.283 + 0.236 + 0.133]

P (x => 5) = 1 - 0.927

P (x => 5) = 0.073

Which means that the probability is 7.3%

Which equation can be used to find x, the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle? A triangle has side lengths 18, 24, x. 18 + 24 = x 18 squared + 24 = x (18 + 24) squared = x squared 18 squared + 24 squared = x squared

Answers

Answer:

A triangle has side lengths 18, 24, x.

18 + 24 = x

18 squared + 24 = x

(18 + 24) squared = x squared

18 squared + 24 squared = x squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle hypotenuse has its length 18² + 24² = x².

What is hypotenuse?

In a right triangle, the "side opposite to the right angle is hypotenuse".

According to the question,

In right angle triangle,  sides are 18, 24, x. Where 'x' is the hypotenuse  of the right angle triangle. In right angle the opposite angle is 90⁰ . In order

to find hypotenuse,  

18 + 24 = x

18² +24 =x

(18+  24) ² = x²

18² + 24² = x²

Hence, the right triangle hypotenuse has its length 18² + 24² = x².

Harry is installing a surveillance camera at the entrance of a Deli. He mounts the camera
8ft above the ground and 16 ft horizontally from the entrance. The camera is meant to
monitor every customer who enters and exits the store. At want angle of depression should
Harry set the camera to capture the faces of all customers? Use a diagram and
mathematical calculations to help you explain your answer.

Answers

Answer: The angle of depression would be 26.57°

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached picture for further details.

What harry has done has effectively led to the formation of a right angled triangle. As shown in the diagram, the camera has been mounted at a height of 8 feet above the ground. Also he mounts the camera at a horizontal from the entrance, which puts the camera at 16 feet away from the entrance (not from the ground). In order to capture every movement at the entrance, the camera range would be determined by an angle which covers everything from top to bottom of the entrance. That gives you the angle of depression which is at the point labelled CAMERA in the triangle.

Having determined two sides and an angle (unknown) in a right angled triangle, we shall use the trigonometric ratios as follows;

Tan ∅ = Opposite/Adjacent

Where the opposite is 8 (side facing the reference angle) and the adjacent is 16 (side that lies between the reference angle and the 90 degree angle)

Tan ∅ = 8/16

Tan ∅ = 0.5

By use of a calculator,

∅ = 26.5650

∅ ≈ 26.57

Therefore the angle of depression of the surveillance camera should be 26.57°

Given the first step in determining the solution to the system of equations,

y = –x2 – 4x – 3 and y = 2x + 5, algebraically as setting the two equations equal as shown:  –x2 – 4x – 3 = 2x + 5, the next step will be to combine like terms onto one side of the equation. The like terms are the terms containing the variable x as shown;

juice is 1 gallon and 3 quarts. Each soda water bottle contains quarts, The
cans of cocktail fruit are 2 pints each. How much (
measured in gallons) of
fruit punch did Josh made?​

Answers

Answer:

9.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Josh mixed 2 cartons of orange juice, 3 bottles of soda water and 6 cans of

cocktail fruits to make a fruit punch.

Each carton of juice is 1 gallon and 3 quarts.

Therefore, 2 cartons will be:

2 * (1 gallon + 3 quarts) = 2 gallons and 6 quarts

1 quart = 0.25 gallon

6 quarts = 6 * 0.25 = 1.5 gallons

Therefore, Josh poured 3.5 gallons of orange juice.

Each soda water bottle contains 6 quarts. There are 3 bottles of soda water.

Therefore, the number of gallons that the soda water bottle contains is:

3 * 6 * 0.25 = 4.5 gallons

The  cans of cocktail fruit are 2 pints each. There are 6 cans of cocktail fruit.

1 pint = 0.125 gallon

2 pints = 0.25 gallons

=> 6 cans of cocktail fruit is:

6 * 0.25 = 1.5 gallons

The amount of fruit punch that Josh made is the sum of all components:

3.5 + 4.5 + 1.5 = 9.5 gallons

Using the appropriate arithmetic operation, the total measure of the fruit punch in gallons is 9.5 Gallons

Recall :

1 quartz = 0.25 gallons 1 pint = 0.125 gallons

Orange juice :

2 cartons = 2(1.75) = 3.5 gallons

Soda water :

3 bottles = 3(6 × 0.25) = 4.5 gallons

Cocktail juice :

6 cans = 6(2 × 0.125) = 1.5 gallons

Total gallons in mixture :

(3.5 + 4.5 + 1.5) = 9.5 gallons

Answer:

C. line d

Step-by-step explanation:

Two parallel lines are lines that do not meet even with continuous extension of their length. While two lines are perpendicular when they form a right angle to each other at the point where they meet.

In the given question, the only figure that would be parallel to line c is line d. Line a is not parallel to line c (since it is slightly diagonal, it would intersect line c at a point) and line B is perpendicular to line c (since it is horizontal to plane Q), same as plane Q. So that lines c and d are parallel to each other.
