A basketball-player scores a free-throw with probability 0.9. What is the probability that her first miss occurs on the 6th shot

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Pr = 0.059049[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p = 0.9[/tex] --- probability of scoring

Required

Probability that his first miss is his 6th shot

Let q represent the event that he did not score.

Using complement rule:

[tex]q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1[/tex]

The event that his first miss is his 6th is represented as:

p p p p p q ---- That he scoress the first 5 attempts

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = p^5 * q[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.9^5 * 0.1[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.059049[/tex]

Find the measure of the missing angle using exterior angle sum theorm

Answers

35 degrees.

Assuming 145 is the exterior angle, the interior is 35. 180-145=35
Add 110 to 35 and get 145 degrees. Which leads the remaining angle 35 degrees

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior sum theorem states the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

145 = ?+110

145 - 100 = ?

a train leaves Westchester at 6:30. What time should it arrive at Middlewich

Answers

Answer:

a). 6:51

b). 6:30 am

c). 34 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Train leaves Westchester at 6:30.

   From the arrival - departure table in column (2),

   Arrival time of the train at middlewich = 6:51

b). Kate has to reach Southam before 9:00 am

   Therefore, time of the latest train that she can catch to get to work on time is 6:30 am

    By this train she can reach at 07:19 at Southam.

c). Duration of journey from Westchester to Eastwick = 06:34 - 06:00

                                                                                        = 00:34

                                                                                        ≈ 34 minutes

I forgot to label the triangle below! I just know that the cos A = 0.48. Based on this information, which angle should be marked A?

Answers

Answer:

angle 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric mnemonic SOH CAH TOA, we know that cos or cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side and hypotenuse side.

This means that if cos A = 0.48, A is the measure of the angle which it's relative adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle will be around 0.48.

Let's try angle 2, cos (angle 2) = adjacent / hypotenuse = 7.8 / 8.9 = 0.876404494382 ≈ 0.87 ≠ 0.48. Since the proportions are not equal, this angle cannot be the one marked as A.

Since angle 3 is a right angle, the adjacent could be either side so it cannot be correct. Thus angle 1 is correct.

One number is 6 times a second number. The sum of the two numbers is 56. Find the numbersOne number is 6 times a second number.

The sum of the two numbers is 56. Find the numbers

Answers

Answer:

I think its 56 = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

8 and 48

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be written as a system of equations. X will be the smaller number and y will be the larger:

6x = y

x + y = 56

Then substitute y in the second equation for 6x(seen in first equation) and solve.

x + 6x = 56

7x = 56

x = 8

So one number is 8. To find the other plug in 8 for x in either of the original equations (both get the same answer for y).

6x = y

6 * 8 = y

48 = y

Then double check by seeing if they fit the requirements of the problem.

Find the area of the triangle whose vertices are (2, 3); (-1, 0); (2, -4)...
[Also show the steps of the solution]
Please answer correctly, it's really urgent!​

Answers

Answer:

Area = 14.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the given coordinates A, B, C;

Thus;

A = (2, 3)

B = (-1, 0)

C = (2, -4)

From the coordinate geometry formula, the formula for area of a triangle with 3 vertices is;

Area = [Ax(By - Cy) + Bx(Cy - Ay) + Cx(Ay - By)]/2

Area = [2(0 - (-4)) + (-1)(-4 - 3) + 2(3 - (-4))]/2

Area = 29/2

Area = 14.5

Answers

[tex]1. \frac{20}{100} [/tex]

[tex]2. \frac{1}{5} [/tex]

Answer:  1

Explanation:

There are a few ways to do this. One way is to notice that the jump from 5 to 100 is "times 20" (go from right to left across the bottom denominators).

So we must do the same "times 20" type of jump when going across the numerators. If x is the numerator for the right hand side, then we go from x to 20. That must mean x = 1

Put another way, we could have these steps

20/100 = x/5

20*5 = 100*x ... cross multiplication

100 = 100x

100x = 100

x = 100/100 .... dividing both sides by 100

x = 1

We see that the fraction 20/100 reduces fully to 1/5

To go from 1/5 to 20/100, we multiply both parts by 20 (divide both parts by 20 to go in reverse).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is that of an exponential function that has been translated downward. We notice the horizontal asymptote is -3, and a couple of points on the graph are (0, -2) and (1, 3).

The shifted parent function will look like ...

  y = a·b^x +c

where c is the horizontal asymptote. Using the two points we found, we have ...

  -2 = a·b^0 -3 . . . . . using (x, y) = (0, -2)

  1 = a . . . . . . . . . . add 3 and simplify

Then using (x, y) = (1, 3), we have ...

  3 = b^1 -3

  6 = b . . . . . . . . . add 3 and simplify

So, the equation is ...

  y = 6^x -3

M=16

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle has been dialated; ILM is a dialated version of IJK. We know that dialations are by scale factors, and we also know the length of two corresponding sides.

IM is 6 m long, and IMK is 6+6 m long, so 12 m. So using simple ratios, we know the dialation factor from ILM to IJK is 2. The corresponding side for JK (m) is LM, which we know is 8 m. So side m is 16 because of the scale factor (2).

Maybe you thought we were solving for "m", as in a varriable all the sides are multiplied by, but I think that's just bad labeling. Hope this helps!
