A study is being conducted in which the health of two independent groups of ten policyholders is being monitored over a one-year

uysha [10]

Answer:

46.91% probability that at least nine participants complete the study in one of the two groups, but not in both groups

Step-by-step explanation:

We use two binomial trials 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.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

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

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of at least nine participants finishing the study in a group.

0.2 probability of a students dropping out. So 1 - 0.2 = 0.8 probability of a student finishing the study. This means that $p = 0.8$ .

10 students, so $n = 10$

We have to find:

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

Then

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.8)^{9}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.2684$

$P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.8)^{10}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.1074$

$P(X \geq 9) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.2684 + 0.1074 = 0.3758$

0.3758 probability that at least nine participants complete the study in a group.

Calculate the probability that at least nine participants complete the study in one of the two groups, but not in both groups?

0.3758 probability that at least nine participants complete the study in a group. This means that $p = 0.3758$

Two groups, so $n = 2$

We have to find P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{2,1}.(0.3758)^{1}.(0.6242)^{1} = 0.4691$

46.91% probability that at least nine participants complete the study in one of the two groups, but not in both groups

An isosceles triangle ABC with the base BC is inscribed in a circle. Find the measure of angles of it, if measure of arc BC = 10

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The measures of the angles of the triangle are 51° , 64.5° , 64.5°

The measures of the angles of the triangle are 129° , 25.5° , 25.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the meaning of the inscribed triangle in a circle

- If a triangle inscribed in a circle, then the vertices of the triangle lie

on the circumference of the circle and each vertex is an inscribed

angle in the circle subtended by the opposite arc

- Fact in the circle the measure of the inscribed angle is 1/2 the

measure of its subtended arc

* Now lets solve the problem

- Δ ABC is an isosceles with the base BC

∴ AB = AC

∴ m∠B = m∠C

- Δ ABC is inscribed in a circle

∴ ∠A is inscribed angle subtended by arc BC (minor or major)

# The measure of the minor arc is less than 180° and the measure of

the major arc is greater then 180° and the sum of the two arcs

equals the measure of the circle which is 360°

∴ ∠B subtended by arc AC

∴ ∠C subtended by arc AB

∵ The measure of the arc BC = 102°

- There is two cases in this question

(1) If the angle A subtended by the minor arc BC

(2) If the angle A subtended by the major arc BC

- Lets solve case (1)

∵ ∠A is an inscribed angle subtended by the minor arc BC

∴ m∠A = 1/2 the measure of the arc BC

∵ The measure of the arc BC is 102°

∴ m∠A = 1/2 × 102 = 51°

∵ The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°

∴ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

∴ 51 + m∠B + m∠C = 180° ⇒ subtract 51 from both sides

∴ m∠B + m∠C = 129°

∵ m∠B = m∠C ⇒ isosceles Δ

∴ m∠B = m∠C = 129/2 = 64.5°

* The measures of the angles of the triangle are 51° , 64.5° , 64.5°

- Lets solve case (2)

∵ ∠A is an inscribed angle subtended by the major arc BC

∴ m∠A = 1/2 the measure of the arc BC

∵ The measure of the minor arc BC is 102°

∵ The measure of the circle is 360°

∴ The measure of the major arc = 360 - 102 = 258°

∴ m∠A = 1/2 × 258 = 129°

∵ The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°

∴ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

∴ 129 + m∠B + m∠C = 180° ⇒ subtract 129 from both sides

∴ m∠B + m∠C = 51°

∵ m∠B = m∠C ⇒ isosceles Δ

∴ m∠B = m∠C = 51/2 = 25.5°

* The measures of the angles of the triangle are 129° , 25.5° , 25.5°

One month julia collected 8.4 gallons of rainwater. That month she used 5.2 gallons of rainwater to water her garden and 6.5 gal

Andru [333]

Given

One month julia collected 8.4 gallons of rainwater.

she used 5.2 gallons of rainwater to water her garden

6.5 gallons of rainwater to water flowers

Find out how much was the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month.

To proof

As given in the question

One month julia collected 8.4 gallons of rainwater

she used 5.2 gallons of rainwater to water her garden and 6.5 gallons of rainwater to water flowers

Total water she used in the month = 5.2 gallons + 6.5gallons

= 11.7 gallons

Let the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month

be x .

Than the equation become in the form

x + 8.4 = 11.7

x = 3.3 gallons

Therefore the supply of rainwater increased or decreased by the end of the month is 3.3 gallons.

Hence proved
