Answer:

4/25 = 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest stick must be between 0 and 5/3.  The probability that it is longer than 1 is therefore:

(5/3 − 1) / (5/3 − 0)

(2/3) / (5/3)

2/5

So the probability that both of the shortest sticks are longer than 1 is (2/5)² = 4/25.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Principal (p) = $775

Rate of interest (r) = 4.24% = 0.0424

No of years/time (t) = 4 years

Simple interest = ptr

= 775 × 4 × 0.0424

= 131.44 dollars

Hence simple interest after 4 years is $131.44

Amount = simple interest + principal

= 775 + 131.44

= 906.44 dollars

Hence amount after 4 years is $906.44

RESULT

906.44 dollars

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Power analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Power analysis is a significant part of test structure. It permits us to decide the example size required to recognize an impact of a given size with a given level of certainty. On the other hand, it permits us to decide the likelihood of recognizing an impact of a given size with a given degree of certainty, under example size requirements. On the off chance that the likelihood is unsuitably low, we would be shrewd to adjust or forsake the analysis.

The principle reason underlying power analysis is to assist the analyst with determining the littlest example size that is appropriate to recognize the impact of a given test at the ideal degree of hugeness.
