Answer:
A. 7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. This means corresponding sides have the same ratio.
short side/hypotenuse = x/12 = 12/20
Multiplying by 12 gives ...
x = 12(12/20) = 144/20
x = 7.2

How long will it take 500 dollars to double if it is invested at 7% interest compounded semi-annually
Answers
Answer:
11 half years
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^(nt), with r representing the interest rate, n being the number of times interest is applied over the time period, and t being the amount of time periods.
If we make the time period a half year (so interest is compounded once per time period), n=2. Then, our interest rate is 7%, or 0.07 (to convert from percent to decimal, simply divide by 100). Our starting amount is 500, and we want it to double, making it 1000. Our formula is thus
1000 = 500 (1+0.07)^(t)
divide both sides by 500
2 = (1+0.07)^(t)
2 = (1.07)^(t)
Using logarithms, we can say that
[tex]log_{1.07} 2 = t[/tex]
and using a calculator, we get
10.24 = t
Since interest is only compounded once per time period, though, we have to round up to make sure it doubles, so t = 11

Points A, B, C, and D lie on a line in that order. If AD/AC = 2/1 and AD/AB = 3/1, what is the value of AC/BD?
Answers
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It might be easier to start by expressing the ratios with AD as the denominator.
AD/AC = 2/1 ⇒ AC/AD = 1/2
AD/AB = 3/1 ⇒ AB/AD = 1/3
From the latter, we have ...
(AD -AB)/AD = 1 -1/3 = 2/3 = BD/AD
Then the desired ratio is ...
AC/BD = (AC/AD)/(BD/AD) = (1/2)/(2/3) = (3/6)/(4/6)
AC/BD = 3/4

When the Bucks play Chiefs at football, the probability that the Chiefs, on present form, will win is 0.56. In a competition, these teams are to play two more pgames. If Swallows beats Bucks in at least4one of these games, they will win the competition, otherwise Bucks will win the trophy. NB: Round off to 2 decimal places. a. The probability that Swallows will win the trophy is [a] probability that Rucks will win the trophy is
Answers
Answer:
The probability that Swallows will win the trophy is 0.8064
The probability that Rucks will win the trophy is 0.1936
Step-by-step explanation:
For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the Swallows win, or they do not. The probability of them winning a game is independent of any other game, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used.
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.
Probability the Swallows wins is 0.56
This means that [tex]p = 0.56[/tex]
2 games:
This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]
The probability that Swallows will win the trophy is
Probability they win at least one game, so:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.56)^{0}.(0.44)^{2} = 0.1936[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1936 = 0.8064[/tex]
0.8064 = 80.64% probability the Swallows win the trophy and 0.1936 probability that the Rucks win the trophy.

Step-by-step explanation:
For each disk, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. The probability of a disk working is independent of any other disk, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Assume that there is a 8% rate of disk drive failure in a year.
So 100 - 8 = 92% probability of working, which means that [tex]p = 0.92[/tex]
Two disks are used:
This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]
What is the probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive?
This is:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.92)^{0}.(0.08)^{2} = 0.0064[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0064 = 0.9936[/tex]
0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working drive

Answer:
0.0756
Step-by-step explanation:
p(success), p = 70% = 0.7
Nunber of trials, n = 4
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0. 7 = 0.3
x = 1
The question meets the requirements of a binomial probability distribution :
P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)
P(x = 1) = 4C1 * 0.7^1 * 0.3^(4-1)
P(x = 1) = 4C1 * 0.7 * 0.3^3
P(x = 1) = 4 * 0.7 * 0.027
P(x = 1) = 0.0756

For a probability distribution to exist, the following must be true;

A. (–2, 4), one, three
B. (4, –2), one, three
C. (2, 4), one, three
D.(4, –2), three, one
Answers
Answer:
A. (–2, 4), one, three
Step-by-step explanation:
For a linear equation:
y = a*x + b
the point-slope form is:
(y - y₁) = m*(x - x₁)
Where we know that this line has the slope m, and passes through the point (x₁, y₁)
In this case, the equation:
(y + 2) = –1/3(x – 4)
is already in the point-slope form.
here we have:
y₁ = -2
x₁ = 4
then the point is (-2, 4)
m = -(1/3)
m = -1/3 means that when we move 3 units to the right, we need to move one unit down. (or the inverse, we can move one unit down and 3 to the right)
So, to complete the statement we have:
plot the point (-2, 4), move one unit down, and three units over to find the next point on the line.

Suppose that the IQ of a randomly selected student from a university is normal with mean 115 and standard deviation 25. Determine the interval of values that is centered at the mean and for which 50% of the students have IQ's in that interval.
Answers
Answer:
The interval is [98,132]
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Normal with mean 115 and standard deviation 25.
This means that [tex]\mu = 115, \sigma = 25[/tex]
Determine the interval of values that is centered at the mean and for which 50% of the students have IQ's in that interval.
Between the 50 - (50/2) = 25th percentile and the 50 + (50/2) = 75th percentile.
25th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 115}{25}[/tex]
[tex]X - 115 = -0.675*25[/tex]
[tex]X = 98[/tex]
75th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 115}{25}[/tex]
[tex]X - 115 = 0.675*25[/tex]
[tex]X = 132[/tex]
The interval is [98,132]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The firm will break even if its cost is equal to its revenue. That is, the price of each item sold must equal the cost of producing it. To cover the fixed cost, a share of it must be added to each of the items sold. Then the break-even price for 80 items is ...
price = variable cost + share of fixed cost

Determine if each statement is always, sometimes, or never true.
Parallel lines are
coplanar.
Perpendicular lines are
coplanar.
Distance around an unmarked circle can
be measured
Answers
Answer:
1) Parallel lines are "ALWAYS"
coplanar.
2) Perpendicular lines ARE "ALWAYS"
coplanar.
3) Distance around an unmarked circle CAN "NEVER" be measured
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Coplanar means lines that lie in the same plane. Now, for a line to be parallel to another line, it must lie in the same plane as the other line otherwise it is no longer a parallel line. Thus, parallel lines are always Coplanar.
2) similar to point 1 above, perpendicular lines are Coplanar. This is because perpendicular lines intersect each other at right angles and it means they must exist in the same plane for that to happen. Thus, they are always Coplanar.
3) to have the distance, we need to have the circle marked out. Because it is from the marked out circle that we can measure radius, diameter and find other distances around the circle. Thus, distance around an unmarked circle can never be measured.
