✎Question:Amirah is 4 years elder than Priya and Shirley is 2 years younger than Priya. If the sum of their ages is 47, find their respective ages ✔​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Priya's age = 15

Amirah's age = 19

Shirley's age = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of Priya.

According to the question,

Amirah's age = x + 4

Shirley's age = x - 2

Their sum is 47.

So,

x + 4 + x + x - 2 = 47

3x + 2 = 47

3x = 47 - 2

3x = 45

x = 45/3

x = 15

So,

Priya's age = 15

Amirah's age = 15 + 4 = 19

Shirley's age = 15 - 2 = 13

Answer 2

Answer:

Priya is 15 years old

Amirah is 19 years old and

Shirley is 13 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

let Amirah =x

let Priya = y

let Shirley = s

so we have

x= 4+y

s=y-2

x+y+s =47

we have x= 4+y

4+y+y+s=47

4+2y+s=47

2y+s=43

s-y=-2 (MULTIPLY BY NEGATIVE 1)

y-s =2

2y+s= 43

by solving simultaneously we get

3y= 45

y=15

x= 4+y

x=19

s=y-2

s= 13

so Priya is 15 years old

Amirah is 19 years old and

Shirley is 13 years old

Richard has just been given an l0-question multiple-choice quiz in his history class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct, Since Richard has not attended a class recently, he doesn't know any of the answers, Assuming that Richard guesses on all 10 questions. Find the indicated probabilities.
A) What is the probability that he will answer all questions correctly?
B) What is the probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly?
C) What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly?
Then use the fact that P(r1) = 1 P(r = 0).
D) What is the probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.0000001024 probability that he will answer all questions correctly.

b) 0.1074 = 10.74% probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly

c) 0.8926 = 89.26% probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly.

d) 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he answers it correctly, or he does not. The probability of answering a question correctly is independent of any other question. This means that 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.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

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

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct

This means that the probability of correctly answering a question guessing is [tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]

10 questions.

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

A) What is the probability that he will answer all questions correctly?

This is [tex]P(X = 10)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.2)^{10}.(0.8)^{0} = 0.0000001024[/tex]

0.0000001024 probability that he will answer all questions correctly.

B) What is the probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly?

None correctly, so [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.1074[/tex]

0.1074 = 10.74% probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly

C) What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly?

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

Since [tex]P(X = 0) = 0.1074[/tex], from item b.

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1074 = 0.8926[/tex]

0.8926 = 89.26% probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly.

D) What is the probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly?

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{10,5}.(0.2)^{5}.(0.8)^{5} = 0.0264[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{10,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{4} = 0.0055[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.2)^{7}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.0008[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.2)^{8}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.0001[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.2)^{9}.(0.8)^{1} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.2)^{10}.(0.8)^{0} \approx 0[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0264 + 0.0055 + 0.0008 + 0.0001 + 0 + 0 = 0.0328[/tex]

0.0328 = 3.28% probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly

Find the radius of a sphere whose volume is 12345mm

Answers

Answer:

14.34mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere = 4/3nr³

where

n = 22/7

r = radius

give the volume of the sphere, we can determine the radius

12345 = 4/3 x 22/7 x r³

12345 = 88/21 x r³

divide both sides by 21/88

r³ = 2945.965909

take the cube root of both sides

r = 14.34 mm

Answer:

So if we are looking at the parallelogram that is in black compared to the blue then you can see it rotated counterclockwise. With this in mind, looking at the answer choices, the closest answer would be "rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise around the origin." This is because it got rotated 90 degrees and it went counterclockwise.

Answer - "rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise around the origin."

so your answer is rotate 90° counter clockwise around the origin.

A rectangle has a perimeter of 103.6 inches and a base of 39 inches. What is the height?

Answers

Answer:

12.8 IN.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, what exactly is perimeter?

Perimeter= 2L+ 2W

In this question we were given the length.ie.Base and the perimeter itself.

●Length is 39 In.

●Perimeter is 103.6 In.

●We don't know the width.

But, as per given the question, we know that;

1 length = 39 In.

2 lengths= 78 In.

Now that we know the total length we can find the total width.

See as follows,

103.6 - 78= 25.6

2 widths= 25.6

1 width= 25.6÷2

=12.8 In

Remember to do the opposite operation of what you see in the equation.

Answer:

(87.85 ≤ μ ≤ 93.11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

91.6, 88.75, 90.8, 89.95, 91.3

Mean, m = Σx / n

n = sample size = 5

Mean = 452.4 / 5 = 90.48

Standard deviation, σ = 3

Zcritical at 95% = 1.96

Confidence interval :

Mean ± Error margin

Error margin = Zcritical*σ/sqrt(n)

Error margin = 1.96 * 3/sqrt(5)

Error margin = 2.630

Lower boundary : 90.48 - 2.630 = 87.85

Upper boundary : 90.48 + 2.630 = 93.11
