The 69.15% of the corks produced by the machine are acceptable. 80% of all corks produced by the machine have diameters less than 3.0772cm.

a) To find the percentage of acceptable corks, we have to calculate the area under the normal distribution curve corks have diameters between the limits of 2.95 cm and 3.05 cm.

Let X be the diameter of the corks produced by the machine. Then X follows a

The corks with diameters that have a normal distribution with mean μ = 3.01 cm

Standard deviation σ = 0.08cm.

Using the standard normal distribution, we can standardize X as follows:

Z = (X - μ) / σ

= (X - 3.01) / 0.08

The probability that Z lies between (2.95 - 3.01) / 0.08 = - 0.75

The probability that Z lies between(3.05 - 3.01) / 0.08 = 0.50.

Using a standard normal table that this probability is approximately 0.6915.

Therefore, the percentage of acceptable corks produced by the machine is 69.15%.

b) To find the diameter D such that 80% of the corks produced by the machine have diameters less than D.

Using the standard normal distribution the Z-score that corresponds to the 80th percentile is:

Z = InvNorm(0.8)

= 0.84

We can then solve for D:

D = μ + Zσ

= 3.01 + 0.84(0.08)

= 3.0772

Therefore, 80% of all corks produced by the machine have diameters less than 3.0772cm.

Step-by-step explanation: A) 2 of 15

Answer:

Yes, the triangle with sides 8, 15, and 17 is a Pythagorean triple. This is because 8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289 = 17^2. As for the acute angle between sides 8 and 15, we can use the inverse tangent function to find it. tan(theta) = 8/15 theta = arctan(8/15) Using a calculator, we find that theta ≈ 28.07 degrees. Since we know this is an acute angle, we can conclude that it measures between 0 and 90 degrees, and is closer to 28 degrees than to 62 degrees.

Answer:

To show this, we can simplify both fractions to a common denominator and compare them.

First, we can simplify 8/18 to 4/9 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Then, we can compare 4/9 to 4/9.

Since both fractions are equal, we know that 4/9 is half of 8/18.

Alternatively, we can cross-multiply and simplify to compare the fractions:

4/9 = (1/2) * 8/18

4/9 = 4/9

We can simplify the expression as follows:

p/(p² - 7) ÷ p²/(p² - 49)

= p/(p² - 7) * (p² - 49)/p² (by flipping the second fraction and multiplying)

= p(p + 7)(p - 7)/(p² - 7)(p²)

= (p + 7)(p - 7)/(p²)

Now, we can write this expression in the form of a + b/p as follows:

(p + 7)(p - 7)/(p²) = (p² - 49 + 2 * 49p)/(p²)

= 1 - 49/p² + 98/p³

Therefore, we can write the expression as:

p/(p² - 7) ÷ p²/(p² - 49) = (p + 7)(p - 7)/(p²) = 1 - 49/p² + 98/p³

So, we have expressed the given expression in the desired form of a + b/p where a = 1 and b = 0 and they are both integers.

The time to reach the maximum height is 3 seconds and the maximum height is 44.1 meters, and other solutions are below

To do this, we find h when t = 0

From the graph, we have

h(0) = 70

So, the height of the cannot at launch is 70 meters

From the graph, we have the vertex to be

Vertex, (t, h) = (3, 114.1)

So, the time to reach the maximum height is 3 seconds

From the graph, we have the vertex to be

Vertex, (t, h) = (3, 114.1)

So, the maximum height is 114.1 meters

This is when h(t) = 0

From the graph, we have

h(7.93) = 0

So, the time spent is 7.93 seconds

The given equation is

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 29.4t + 70

If the initial velocity changes, then the equation becomes

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 40.5t + 70

The given equation is

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 29.4t + 70

If the initial height changes, then the equation becomes

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 29.4t

We have

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 29.4t

Differentiate and set to 0

-9.8t = -29.4

So, we have

t = 3

Next, we have

h(3) = -4.9 * 3^2 + 29.4 * 3

h(3) = 44.1

The probability of flipping the unfair coin given that we observed five tails in a row is approximately 0.9048

Let's define

A: the event of picking the unfair coin

B: the event of getting five tails in a row

We want to find the conditional probability of picking the unfair coin given that we observed five tails in a row, or P(A|B).

Using Bayes' theorem, we have

P(A|B) = P(B|A) × P(A) / P(B)

P(B|A) is the probability of getting five tails in a row given that we are flipping the unfair coin. Since the unfair coin is not fair, we don't know its probability of coming up as tails, but let's assume it has a probability of 0.9 of coming up as tails. Thus, P(B|A) = 0.9^5 = 0.59049.

P(A) is the prior probability of picking the unfair coin, which is 0.5 since we picked one of two coins at random.

P(B) is the total probability of getting five tails in a row, which is the sum of the probabilities of getting five tails in a row with the fair coin and the unfair coin.

The probability of getting five tails in a row with the fair coin is 0.5^5 = 0.03125. The probability of picking the unfair coin and getting five tails in a row is P(B|A) × P(A) = 0.59049 × 0.5 = 0.295245. Thus, P(B) = 0.03125 + 0.295245 = 0.326495.

Now we can calculate P(A|B)

P(A|B) = P(B|A) × P(A) / P(B) = 0.59049 × 0.5 / 0.326495 = 0.9048

These statements are false because (a)False because the complete solution to Ax = b is actually the sum of the particular solution Xp and any linear combination of the solutions in the nullspace Xn. (b) False because if the system Ax = b has a particular solution, it will always have exactly one particular solution. (c) False because if A is invertible, there is indeed a solution Xn in the nullspace, but it is only the trivial solution Xn = 0.

(a) The complete solution to Ax = b is any linear combination of Xp and Xn is false.

Mathematically, the complete solution is given by X = Xp + Xn, not just any linear combination of Xp and Xn.

(b) The system Ax = b has at most one particular solution.

This is due to the fact that the particular solution is the unique point where the affine subspace defined by the system intersects the null space of A.

(c) If A is invertible, there is no solution Xn in the null space.

Pythagorean theorem, trigonometric ratios, Law of sines and  Law of cosines are  different ways to find the measure of a side of triangles.

There are different ways to find the measure of a side of a triangle;

 The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Therefore, if a and b are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse, we have c²= a² + b².

if we know the measure of one acute angle (other than the right angle) and the length of the adjacent side to that angle, we can use the cosine function to find the length of the hypotenuse, or the sine function to find the length of the opposite side.

The law states that the ratio of the length of a side to the sine of the angle opposite that side is the same for all sides and angles of the triangle. Therefore, if a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle and A, B, and C are the measures of the angles opposite those sides, we have a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C).

The law states that the square of a side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides minus twice the product of those sides and the cosine of the included angle. Therefore, if a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle and C is the measure of the included angle between sides a and b, we have c² = a² + b² - 2abcos(C).

what is probability?

Probability is a measure of the likelihood or chance of an event occurring. It is a number between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates that the event is impossible and 1 indicates that the event is certain to occur.

In the given question,

The total frequency of all colors is:

19 (red) + 4 (blue) + 11 (green) + 15 (yellow) + 4 (purple) = 53

The probability of the next spin landing on red or green or yellow is the sum of the frequencies of these colors divided by the total frequency:

(19 + 11 + 15) / 53 = 45 / 53

To express this as a percent to the nearest whole number, we can multiply by 100 and round to the nearest whole number:

The perimeter of triangle XYZ with the vertices, X(2, 5), Y(10 9), and Z(6, 1), is approximately 24.07 units.

To find the perimeter of the triangle, we need to add up the lengths of all three sides. To do this, we can use the distance formula, which is:

d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

Using this formula, we can find the length of each side of triangle XYZ:

Side XY:

d = √[(10 - 2)² + (9 - 5)²] = √64 + 16 = √80

Side YZ:

d = √[(6 - 10)² + (1 - 9)²] = √16 + 64 = √80

Side ZX:

d = √[(6 - 2)² + (1 - 5)²] = √16 + 16 = √32

Therefore, the perimeter of triangle XYZ = XY + YZ + ZX = √80 + √80 + √32

The probability that the first time a battery damage is observed is during the third trial or later is 42.74%.

To solve this problem, we can use the geometric distribution, which models the number of trials until the first success in a sequence of independent trials. In this case, the probability of success is 0.24 (the probability of a battery damage) and the probability of failure is 0.76 (the probability of a glass screen damage).

The probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the third trial or later can be calculated as the complement of the probability of observing a battery damage on the first or second trial.

The probability of observing a battery damage on the first trial is 0.24, and the probability of observing a battery damage on the second trial is (0.76)(0.24) = 0.1824 (the probability of no battery damage on the first trial times the probability of battery damage on the second trial). Therefore, the probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the third trial or later is 1 - 0.24 - 0.1824 = 0.5776.

However, the question asks for the probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the third trial or later, which means we need to take into account the fact that we may have observed a battery damage before the third trial. Therefore, we need to adjust our calculation by subtracting the probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the first or second trial from our previous result.

The probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the first or second trial is 0.24 + 0.1824 = 0.4224. Therefore, the probability of observing a battery damage for the first time on the third trial or later is 0.5776 - 0.4224 = 0.1552 or 15.52%.

Therefore, the probability that the first time a battery damage is observed is during the third trial or later is 42.74%
