Answer:

P(X 0.9619

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

the probability of getting returned p = 0.1

If eight rings are sold today, what is the probability that fewer than three will be returned;

According to binomial distribution

Binomial distribution is the probability of success or failure of an outcome of an experiment under observation which is usually repeated several trials. Binomial experiments are random experiment with fixed number of repeated experiment. If we cannot predict before head, the outcome of an experiment , the experiment is called a random experiment.

So , using binomial distribution to determine the probability that fewer than three will be returned;

i.e

P(X \sum_{x=0}^{2}\binom{8}{x}(0.1)^{x}(1-0.1)^{8-x}

P(X 0.9619

Nancy used 14 yards of fabric to make flags for one third of the drill team. How much fabric would Nancy need to make flags for
Kipish [7]

If all the flags use material at the same rate, Nancy will need 3 times the fabric to make 3 times the number of flags. Nancy needs 3×(14 yd) = 42 yd for the whole team.

A hollow sphere sits snugly in a foam cube so that the sphere touches each side of the cube. Find the volume of the foam.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

                             π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the sphere be r.  Then the volume of the sphere is

V = (4/3)(π)(r³).  

Next, recognize that the side length of the cube is 2r, and that the volume of the cube is thus

V = (2r)³, or 8r³.

Then the volume of the foam is equal to the volume of the cube less the volume of the sphere:

V-foam = 8r³ - (4/3)(π)(r³).  This could be factored into

                             π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

In triangle FGH, FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, Measure of angle G = 80 degrees, and Measure of angle H = 55 degrees. If Triangle A
aalyn [17]

Question:

In triangle FGH, FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, m angle G=80 degrees, and m angle H=55 degrees. If triangle ABC GHF, which statement is true?

(A) AB = 12.3 cm

(B) AB = 10.6 cm

(C) m∠C = 55°

(D) m∠C = 80°

Answer:

Option B:

AB = 10.6 cm

Solution:

The image of the triangle is attached below.

In ΔFGH,

FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, m∠G = 80° and m∠H = 55°

Option A: AB = 12.3 cm

Given ΔGHF \sim ΔABC.

Corresponding parts of congruence triangles are congruent.

GH = AB = 10.6 cm

So, option A is not true.

Option B: AB = 10.6 cm

Already proved in option A that AB = 10.6 cm

So, option B is true.

Option C: m∠C = 55°

ΔGHF \sim ΔABC

Corresponding parts of congruence triangles are congruent.

m∠G = m∠A = 80°

m∠H = m∠B = 55°

Sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

⇒ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

⇒ 80° + 55° + m∠C = 180°

⇒ m∠C = 180° – 80° – 55°

⇒ m∠C = 45°

So, option C is not true.

Option D: m∠C = 80°

Already proved in option C that m∠C = 45°.

So, option D is not true.

Hence option B is the true statement that AB = 10.6 cm.
