A certain insecticide kills 60% of all insects in laboratory experiments. A sample of 12 insects is exposed to the insecticide in a particular experiment. What is the probability that exactly 10 insects will die

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                     P( X = 10 ) = 0.06385        

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given a certain insecticide kills 60% of all insects in laboratory experiments

Given proportion  p = 0.60

                           q = 1 - 0.60 = 0.40

Given sample size 'n' = 12

Step(ii):-

Let "X' be the random variable of binomial distribution

                              [tex]P(X=r) = n_{C_{r} } p^{r} q^{n-r}[/tex]

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                              [tex]P(X=10) = 12_{C_{10} } (0.60)^{10} (0.40)^{12-10}[/tex]

                           

                          [tex]n_{C_{r} } = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} = \frac{12!}{(12-10)!10!} = 66[/tex]

                          [tex]P(X=10) = 66 X (0.60)^{10} (0.40)^{2} = 0.06385[/tex]

Final answer:-

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                     P( X = 10 ) = 0.06385

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students in Mr.Romano’s class is 35.

Given that, in Mr. Romano‘s class, 40% of the students like baseball.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Let the number of students in Mr.Romano’s class be x.

Here, 40% of x = 14

⇒ 40/100 × x = 14

⇒ 0.4x = 14

⇒ x = 14/0.4

⇒ x = 35

Therefore, the number of students in Mr.Romano’s class is 35.

Eugene sold half of his comic books and then bought eight more. He now has 32. With how many did he begin?

Answers

Answer:

48 books

Step-by-step explanation:

32-8 = 24

24= 1/2 of total

24x2=48

Answer=48 books

Check:

48/2=24

24+8=32

YAY!!

Answer:

48 comic books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use x as the amount that he originally had.

If he sold half of them, that would be:

(1/2)x

Then he bought 8 more, so you would add 8 to that total.

(1/2)x + 8

If he now has 32 then we need to set that equation to equal 32.

(1/2)x + 8 = 32

Subtract 8 from each side.

(1/2)x = 24

Then you will divide 24 by 1/2. That is the same thing as multiplying by 2.

So,

x = 48

Check work

(1/2)x + 8 = 32

(1/2)(48) + 8 = 32

Half of 48 is 24.

24 + 8 = 32.

32 = 32.

A closed box has a square base with side length l feet and height h feet. Given that the volume of the box is 29 cubic feet, express the surface area of the box in terms of l only.

Answers

Answer:

The surface area of the box in terms of l is [tex]2l^2 +116/l[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the box = [tex]l[/tex]

The height of the box = [tex]h[/tex]

The volume of the box can be obtained by multiplying the surface area of the base by the height of the box.

The surface area of the base of the box is a square, so it will be obtained by multiplying [tex]l \times l = l^2[/tex]

hence volume = [tex]l^2 \times h =29[/tex]

Notice that we are told to give our answer in terms of l, so we will make h the Subject of the formula in the above equation.

[tex]h =29/l^2[/tex]

In the next phase, we are to find the surface area of the box.

The box has a square base, hence it will be made up of

2 squares with 4 rectangles. This is assuming the top is closed.

This means the surface area will be

[tex]2(l^2) +4 (l\times h)[/tex]

recall [tex]h = 29/l^2[/tex]

Hence, surface area =

[tex]2(l^2) +4(l \times 29/l^2)\\2l^2 +116/l[/tex]

The surface area of the box in terms of l is [tex]2l^2 +116/l[/tex]

The surface area of the closed box in terms of l only, which has the square base is,

[tex]2l^2+\dfrac{116}{l}\;\rm ft^2\\[/tex]

What is of volume of cuboid?

Volume of cuboid or box is the amount of quantity, which is obtained by it in the 3 dimensional space.

The volume of cuboid or box can be given as,

[tex]V=l\times b\times h[/tex]

Here, (l) is the length, (b) is the width of the box and (h) is the height of the box.

A closed box has a square base with side length l feet and height h feet.  Therefore, the length and width will be the same.

The volume of the box is 29 cubic feet. Thus,

[tex]29=l\times (l)\times h\\h=\dfrac{29}{l^2}[/tex]

The surface area of the square base box is,

[tex]A=2l^2+4lh[/tex]

Put the value of height,

[tex]A=2l^2+4l\dfrac{29}{l^2}\\A=2l^2+\dfrac{116}{l}\\[/tex]

Hence, the surface area of the closed box in terms of l only, which has the square base is,

[tex]2l^2+\dfrac{116}{l}\;\rm ft^2\\[/tex]

m over 8 minus 5 equal 12​

Answers

Answer:

m = 136

Step-by-step explanation:

m/8 - 5 = 12

1. Add 5 on both sides

m/8 - 5 + 5 = 12 + 5

m/8 = 17

Multiply 8 on both sides since u are trying to isolate the variable

m/8 * 8 = 17*8

m = 136

Check

136/8 - 5 = 12

17 - 5 = 12

12 = 12

Hope it helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] - 5 = 12 : Original Problem

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] -5 +5 = 12 + 5 : Bringing the constants to one side

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex] = 17 : Simplification

[tex]\frac{m}{8}[/tex]×8 = 17×8: Isolating the variable

m = 136 : The answer!!!

Checking the answer

[tex]\frac{136}{8}[/tex] -5 = 12 : Substitution

[tex]\frac{136}{8}[/tex] = 17 : Bringing constants to one side and simplification

136 = 17 × 8 : Isolating the answer

136 = 136 : Success!!!

The height of the tunnel at the center is 35ft, and the vertical clearance must be 21 ft at a point of 8ft from the center. Find an equation for the parabola.


INCLUDE WORK.

Answers

Answer:

y=-0.215x^2+35

Step by Step:

Let, [tex]h=0[/tex],  [tex]k=35[/tex], [tex]x=8[/tex], [tex]y=21[/tex]

We know that, the general equation of the parabola.

   [tex]y-k = a(x-h)^2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow y=a(x-h)^2+k .........(i)[/tex]

Substitute the  value of [tex]h, k, x, y[/tex] in equation [tex](i)[/tex] and find the value of [tex]a.[/tex]

  [tex]21=a(8-0)^2+35[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 21=a\times 8^2+35[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 21=64a+35[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 64a=21-35[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 64a=-14[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow a=\frac{-14}{65}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow a=-0.215[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the parabola is:

[tex]y=-0.215x^2+35[/tex]

A community garden center host a plant giveaway every spring to help community members start there gardens. Last year the give away supported 50 families by giving away 150 plants. Based on this ratio hawa many plants will they give away this year in order to support 65 families

Answers

Answer:

195 plants (verified) ✅

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use a proportion to solve this.

x/y = x/y

let x = the number of families in each case

let y = the number of plants in each case

Since we don't know the second y, we will leave that as y and solve for it.

50/150 = 65/y

Cross-multiply

50y = 9750

Divide

195  = y

Now, we can check this by substituting the value of y back into the equation and seeing if both sides equal.

50 (195) = 9750

9750 = 9750 ✅
