A certain insecticide kills 60% of all insects in laboratory experiments. A sample of 12 insects is exposed to the insecticide in a particular experiment. What is the probability that exactly 10 insects will die

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                     P( X = 10 ) = 0.06385        

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given a certain insecticide kills 60% of all insects in laboratory experiments

Given proportion  p = 0.60

                           q = 1 - 0.60 = 0.40

Given sample size 'n' = 12

Step(ii):-

Let "X' be the random variable of binomial distribution

                              [tex]P(X=r) = n_{C_{r} } p^{r} q^{n-r}[/tex]

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                              [tex]P(X=10) = 12_{C_{10} } (0.60)^{10} (0.40)^{12-10}[/tex]

                           

                          [tex]n_{C_{r} } = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} = \frac{12!}{(12-10)!10!} = 66[/tex]

                          [tex]P(X=10) = 66 X (0.60)^{10} (0.40)^{2} = 0.06385[/tex]

Final answer:-

The probability that exactly 10 insects will die

                     P( X = 10 ) = 0.06385

Six less than 4 times a number gives 18

Answers

Answer:

6-4 times x=18

btw x=9

Answer:

4x - 6 =15

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use "x" as our variable to represent the number we are trying to find.  

Let's take the problem piece by piece.

Six less than four times a number.

If we are using x to represent our number, we know that when we do four times that number we are multiplying x times 4, which is the same as writing "4x."

Next we know that we are taking six less than 4x. Six less than means we will be subtracting 6 from our 4x, which is the same as writing 4x - 6.

Finally, we know that six less than 4x (4x - 6) equals 15. Now we have a full equation:

4x - 6 =15

Jews  or Jewish people are an ethnoreligious group and Hebrews of historical Israel and Judah. Jewish ethnicity, nationhood, and religion are strongly interrelated, as Judaism is the ethnic religion of the Jewish people, while its observance varies from strict observance to complete nonobservance. This is amazing religion, how everything is in place in a neat way. the worldwide Jewish population reached a peak of 16.7 million, representing around 0.7 percent of the world population at that time, which is a ton. defines itself as a Jewish and democratic state in the Basic Laws, Human Dignity and Liberty in particular, which is based on the Declaration of Independence. Israel's Law of Return grants the right of citizenship to Jews who have expressed their desire to settle in Israel. Despite their  percentage of the world's population, Jews have significantly influenced and contributed to human progress in many fields, both historically and in modern times, including philosophy, ethics, literature, politics, and cinema, medicine, and science and technology, founded Early Christianity and had a profound influence on Islam. Jews have also played a significant role in the development of Western Civilization. If you thought that was crazy watch until you hear the English word "Jew" continues Middle English '.

An online shopping club has 11,200 members when it charges $7 per month for membership. For each $1 monthly
increase in membership fee, the club loses approximately 400 of its existing members. Write and simplify a function R
to represent the monthly revenue received by the club when x represents the price increase.
Hint: Monthly revenue = # members. monthly fee.

Answers

Answer:

Monthly revenue = R(x) = (11,200 - 400x) * (7 + x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly revenue = Number of members * Monthly fee ......... (1)

Where;

Number of members = 11,200

Monthly fee = $7

For each $1 monthly increase in membership fee, we have

For 1 month, one dollar the decrease = 400 * 1 = 400

For 2 months, 2 dollar increase will lead to decrease of 400* 2 = 800 members

Therefore, for x months

Innrease in membeship fee or price increase = 7 + x

Decrease in the numbers of members = 400x

Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:

Monthly revenue = R(x) = (11,200 - 400x) * (7 + x)

Regina had 30 meters of ribbon. She gave 2.7 meters of the ribbon to each
of her four friends and used the rest to tie some presents for her birthday
party. Each present required 75 centimeters of ribbon to tie. Find the
maximum number of presents Regina could tie.

Answers

Answer:

25 presents.

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract 2.7(4) from 30.

30 - 2.7(4) = 19.2 meters

Now, convert 19.2 into centimeters.

There's 100cm in 1m, so 19.2 meters can be found by doing:

19.2 x 100 = 1920 cm.

Now, do 1920 divided by 75:

1920/75 = 25.6

Since you can't tie 0.6 of a present, you disregard that. So, she can tie 25 presents.

Howard is picking out some movies to rent, and he has narrowed down his selections to 4 children's movies, 7 comedies, 7 mysteries, and 5 horror films. How many different combinations of 9 movies can he rent if he wants all 4 children's movies

Answers

Answer:

6188

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of children's movies = 4

Number of comedy movies = 7

Number of mystery movies = 7

Number of horror movies = 5

Total number of movies to be rented = 9 out of which 4 are fixed to be children's movies

To find:

Number of different combinations to rent 9 movies out of which 4 are children's movies

Solution:

Number of movies left to be rented = 9 - 4 = 5

Number of movies left out of which these 5 are to be rented = 7 + 7 + 5 = 17

Now, there are a total of 17 movies out of which 5 are to be selected.

Therefore, we can use:

[tex]_nC_r = \dfrac{n! }{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

where, [tex]n = 17[/tex]

[tex]r = 5[/tex]

[tex]_{17}C_5 = \dfrac{17! }{5!(12)!}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{17.16.15.14.13}{5.4.3.2.1} = \bold{6188}[/tex]

The value of x(perpendicular) is 17.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle is a right angled triangle as one of the angles is 90°

Also according to the reference angle 54°,

Hypotenuse = H = 22

Perpendicular = P = x

We can use the trigonometric ratio of sine as it involves both known value perpendicular and hypotenuse.

So,

[tex]sin\ 54 = \frac{P}{H}\\sin\ 54 = \frac{x}{22}\\0.8090 = \frac{x}{22}\\x = 0.8090*22\\x = 17.798[/tex]

Rounding off to nearest hundredth

x = 17.80

Hence,

The value of x(perpendicular) is 17.80
