In a carnival game, there are six identical boxes, one of which contains a prize. A contestant wins the prize by selecting the box containing it. Before each game, the old prize is removed and another prize is placed at random in one of the six boxes. Is it appropriate to use the binomial probability distribution to find the probability that a contestant who plays the game five times wins exactly twice

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that a contestant who plays the game five times wins exactly twice is [tex]16.08[/tex] %

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use binomial theorem here

[tex]C_{n,k}p^k(p')^{n-k}[/tex]

Substituting the available values in above equation, we get

[tex]C_{5,2} * \frac{1}{6}^2*\frac{5}{6}^3[/tex]

[tex]0.1608[/tex]

OR

The probability that a contestant who plays the game five times wins exactly twice is [tex]16.08[/tex] %

You deposit $400 each month into an account earning 8% interest compounded monthly. Round to the nearest cent as needed. a) How much will you have in the account in 35 years? $ b) How much total money will you put into the account? $ c) How much total interest will you earn? $

Answers

If I deposit $400 each month into an account earning 8% interest compounded monthly, I will have $6,517 in my account in 35 years. The total money that I will put into the account is $168,000. I will earn a total compound interest of $6,117.

Calculating the Sum of Money in 35 years

Given information is as follows,

Principal, P = $400

Rate = 8%

Time, T = 35 years

n = 12 (Compounded monthly)

The amount for compound interest is given as,

A = [tex]P\frac{(1+\frac{R}{n} )^{nT} -1}{R/n}[/tex]

A = [tex]400\frac{(1+\frac{0.08}{12} )^{12.35} -1}{0.08/12}[/tex]

A = 6,517.02

A = $6,517 (to the nearest cents)

Calculating the Amount Put in Account

Since, $400 is deposited every month for 35 years,

Amount Put in 35 years for this compound interest =$400 × 12 × 35

= $168,000

Calculating the Compound Interest

A = P + CI

Thus, the compound interest is given by,

CI = A - P

CI = 6517 - 400

CI = $6,117

I will earn a total interest of $6,117

waht is the x^2 + 10 = 0

Answers

Answer:

x = ±√10i (i outside the radical), or approximately ±3.62i, or no solution depending on your class.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 10 = 0

x^2 = -10

x = ±√-10

x = ±√10i (i outside the radical), or approximately ±3.62i.

The solution is not real.

If you meant x^2 - 10 = 0 then x = ±√10 or approximately ±3.62. This solution is real.

George plans to cover his circular pool for the upcoming winter season. The pool has a diameter of 20 feet and the cover extends 12 inches beyond the edge of the pool. A rope runs along the edge of the cover to secure it in place.
A. What is the area of the pool cover?
B. What is the length of the rope?

Answers

For the circular cover we have:

A) The area is 379.94 ft²

B) The length of the rope must be 68.2 ft

How to get the area of the cover?

Remember that the area of a circle of radius R is given by the formula:

[tex]A = pi*R^2[/tex]

Where pi = 3.14

In this case, the diameter of the pool is 20ft, then the radius is:

R = 20ft/2 = 10ft

And it must extend 12 inches beyond, then the radius of the cover must be:

R = 10ft + 12in

Now, we know that 1ft = 12 in, then we can rewrite the radius as:

R = 10ft +1ft = 11ft

Then the area of the cover is:

[tex]A = 3.14*(11ft)^2 = 379.94 ft^2[/tex]

B) now we want to get the length of the rope, we know that the rope runs along the cover, then the length of the rope must be equal to the circumference of the cover.

Remember that the circumference of a circle of radius R is:

[tex]C = 2*pi*R[/tex]

Then the length of the rope will be:

[tex]C = 2*3.14*11ft = 68.2ft[/tex]

3(1-5x)=2(3x+1) find the solution set

Answers

Answer:

1/21

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3(1−5x)=2(3x+1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(1−5x)=2(3x+1)

(3)(1)+(3)(−5x)=(2)(3x)+(2)(1)(Distribute)

3+−15x=6x+2

−15x+3=6x+2

Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.

−15x+3−6x=6x+2−6x

−21x+3=2

Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−21x+3−3=2−3

−21x=−1

Step 4: Divide both sides by -21.

-21x/-21=-1/-21

x=1/21

[tex]\boldsymbol{\sf{3(1-5x)=2(3x+1)}}[/tex]

Reorder terms

Subtract 3x from both sides.

Plot each point that is a horizontal distance of 6 and a vertical distance of 2 from the origin.

Answers

The points that are a horizontal distance of 6 and a vertical distance of 2 from the origin are (6, 2), (-6, 2), (6, -2), (-6, -2)

What are points?

Points are undefined terms in geometry, however they are used to represent the coordinate or location of items in a coordinate plane

How to plot the point?

The features of the point are given as:

Horizontal distance = 6

Vertical distance = 2

The above means that:

x = 6

y = 2

The points are then represented as:

(x, y) = ±(x. y)

So, we have

(x, y) = ±(6, 2)

When the above equation is expanded, we have

(x, y) = (6, 2), (-6, 2), (6, -2), (-6, -2)

Next, we plot the points on a coordinate plane

See attachment for the graph of the plane

Hence. the points that are a horizontal distance of 6 and a vertical distance of 2 from the origin are (6, 2), (-6, 2), (6, -2), (-6, -2)

You make a scale drawing of a tree using the scale 5 inches. = 27 feet. If the tree is 67.5 feet tall, how tall is the scale drawing?

Answers

Answer:

so,

k + a = -2

Standard form of a parabola with a vertical axis of symmetry:

Vertex = (h, k)Focus = (h, k+p)Directrix: y = (k-p)Axis of symmetry: h = kIf p > 0, the parabola opens upwards, and if p < 0, the parabola opens downwards.

Given:

vertex = (1, -1)focus = (1, -2)

Comparing with the formulas:

⇒ k = -1

⇒ k + p = -2  ⇒ -1 + p = -2  ⇒ p = -1

Roller Coaster Crew
Ray and Kelsey have summer internships at an engineering firm. As part of their internship, they get to assist in the planning of a brand new roller coaster. For this assignment, you help Ray and Kelsey as they tackle the math behind some simple curves in the coaster's track.

Part A
The first part of Ray and Kelsey's roller coaster is a curved pattern that can be represented by a polynomial function.
1. Ray and Kelsey are working to graph a third-degree polynomial function that represents the first pattern in the coaster plan. Ray says the third-degree polynomial has four intercepts. Kelsey argues the function can have as many as three zeros only. Is there a way for the both of them to be correct? Explain your answer.

2. Kelsey has a list of possible functions. Pick one of the g(x) functions below and then describe to Kelsey the key features of g(x), including the end behavior, y-intercept, and zeros.
g(x) = (x + 2)(x − 1)(x − 2)
g(x) = (x + 3)(x + 2)(x − 3)
g(x) = (x + 2)(x − 2)(x − 3)
g(x) = (x + 5)(x + 2)(x − 5)
g(x) = (x + 7)(x + 1)(x − 1)

3. Create a graph of the polynomial function you selected from Question 2.

Part B
The second part of the new coaster is a parabola.

4. Ray needs help creating the second part of the coaster. Create a unique parabola in the pattern f(x) = (x − a)(x − b). Describe the direction of the parabola and determine the y-intercept and zeros.

5. Create a graph of the polynomial function you created in Question 4.

Part C
6. Now that the curve pieces are determined, use those pieces as sections of a complete coaster. By hand or by using a drawing program, sketch a design of Ray and Kelsey's coaster that includes the shape of the g(x) and f(x) functions that you chose in the Parts A and B. You do not have to include the coordinate plane. You may arrange the functions in any order you choose, but label each section of the graph with the corresponding function for your instructor to view.

Answers

Answer:

Part A

1. A third degree polynomial has exactly three zeros. This is because its highest power (or degree) is 3. Ray would only be correct in saying that a polynomial can have 4 zeros if it is a 4th degree polynomial. Since in this case, a 4rd degree polynomial is being discussed, Kelsey is correct.

2. Function chosen: g(x) = (x + 2)(x - 1)(x - 2)

End behaviour: x —> ∞, g(x) —> ∞

                         x —> - ∞, g(x) —> -∞

Zeros/x intercepts of the function: -2, 1, 2

y intercept: g(x) = (x + 2)(x - 1)(x - 2)

                   g(x) = (0 + 2)(0 - 1)(0 - 2)

                   g(x) = (2)(-1)(-2)

                   g(x) = 4

3. See Graph 1

Part B

4. f(x) = (x + 5)(x + 3)

Direction: opens upward

Zeros/x intercepts: -5, -3

y intercept: 15

5. See graph 2

Part C
