Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is B) 21%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial model probability problem. We need to find the probability of 6 out of 10 new births at a hospital being boys. The information we need is the number of trials observed, the number of successes and the percentage chance you have of any birth being a boy. The number of trials are 10, with the number of successes being 6 (the number of trials we want to be boys) It states that 51% or 0.51 of all births in the US are boys so we can use this value to determine our answer using our binomial model formula. After simplifying we get our answer of 21% I hope this has been of use to you :)

Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Answer 2

The probability that 6 out of 10 births at a local hospital are boys is 21%, so option B is correct.

What is probability?

The ratio of good outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as probability. A lot of successful results for an experimental with 'n' results can be represented by the symbol x.

Given data:

In the U.S., 51% of all births are boys, and 49% are girls

Calculate the probability by the formula given below,

[tex]P(x) = [n! / {x!(n-x)!}]P^xQ^{n-x}[/tex]

Here x = 6 and n = 10, put the values,

P(x) = [10! / {6!(10-6)!}] × 51⁶ × 49⁽¹⁰⁻⁶⁾

P(x) =  [10! / {6!4!}] × 0.51⁶ × 0.49⁴

P(x) =  210 × 0.0176 × 0.0577

P(x) =  0.21

P(x) =  21 %

Therefore, the probability that 6 out of 10 births at a local hospital are boys is 21%.

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]

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.

What the answer to this

Answers

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-3a + 4 = -14

-3a = -14 - 4

-3a = -18

a = -18 / 3

a = -6

Answer:

a = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides.

-3a + 4 - 4 = -14 - 4

+4 and -4 cancel out.

Step 2: Subtract 4 from -14 to get -18.

-3a = -18

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.

a = -18/-3

Step 4: Divide -18 by -3 to get 6.

a = 6

Let's check our work by substituting a for 6.

-3(6) + 4 = -14

Multiply -3 by 6 to get -18.

-18 + 4 = -14

Add -18 and 4 to get -14.

-14 = -14

This is true, so a = 6.

NEED TO FIND WHAT

Step-by-step explanation:

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]

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines have a neg. reciprocal for the slope.

for example:

in this equation y=-2x+1

-2 is the slope and the negative reciprocal would be 1/2

hence, the slop of our new line is 1/2

y=1/2x+b

we can substitute the coordinates given for x and y:

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
