Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, any two adjacent angles are supplementary. In other words, they total 180.

Angle D and Angle E are adjacent. Thus, they are supplementary. In other words:

$\angle D +\angle E =180$

Substitute them for the equations:

$7x+21+15+5x=180$

Combine like terms and add on the left:

$12x+36=180$

Subtract 36 from both sides:

$12x=144$

Divide both sides by 12:

$x=12$

Thus, the value of x is 12.

Note that Angle D and Angle C are also adjacent. Thus, their angles also equal 180.

So:

$\angle D+\angle C =180$

Substitute the equation for D:

$7x+21+\angle C=180$

Plug in 12 for x:

$7(12)+21+\angle C =180$

Simplify:

$84+21+\angle C =180\\105+\angle C =180$

Subtract 105 from both sides:

$\angle C =75\textdegree$

Thus, Angle C is 75 degrees.

Isabella filled her pool with water at a constant rate.

AlladinOne [14]

(184-94)/5=18

This means that she fills up 18 liters every minute. Thus she will be done in->

184(original amount)+(2 minutes (time passed during first data point)*18(rate of water)=184+36=220

To find the total time taken we divide 220 by 18 which is 220/18=12 2/9

A supermarket has two customers waiting to pay for their purchases at counter I and one customer waiting to pay at counter II. L

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

b. 0.864

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start defining the random variables.

Y1 : ''Number of customers who spend more than $50 on groceries at counter 1''

Y2 : ''Number of customers who spend more than $50 on groceries at counter 2''

If X is a binomial random variable, the probability function for X is :

$P(X=x)=(nCx)p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}$

Where P(X=x) is the probability of the random variable X to assume the value x

nCx is the combinatorial number define as :

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

n is the number of independent Bernoulli experiments taking place

And p is the success probability.

In counter I :

Y1 ~ Bi (n,p)

Y1 ~ Bi(2,0.2)

$P(Y1=y1)=(2Cy1)(0.2)^{y1}(0.8)^{2-y1}$

With y1 ∈ {0,1,2}

And P( Y1 = y1 ) = 0 with y1 ∉ {0,1,2}

In counter II :

Y2 ~ Bi (n,p)

Y2 ~ Bi (1,0.3)

$P(Y2=y2)=(1Cy2)(0.3)^{y2}(0.7)^{1-y2}$

With y2 ∈ {0,1}

And P( Y2 = y2 ) = 0 with y2 ∉ {0,1}

(1Cy2) with y2 = 0 and y2 = 1 is equal to 1 so the probability function for Y2 is :

$P(Y2=y2)=(0.3)^{y2}(0.7)^{1-y2}$

Y1 and Y2 are independent so the joint probability distribution is the product of the Y1 probability function and the Y2 probability function.

$P(Y1=y1,Y2=y2)=P(Y1=y1).P(Y2=y2)$

$P(Y1=y1,Y2=y2)=(2Cy1)(0.2)^{y1}(0.8)^{2-y1}(0.3)^{y2}(0.7)^{1-y2}$

With y1 ∈ {0,1,2} and y2 ∈ {0,1}

P( Y1 = y1 , Y2 = y2) = 0 when y1 ∉ {0,1,2} or y2 ∉ {0,1}

b. Not more than one of three customers will spend more than $50 can mathematically be expressed as :

$Y1 + Y2 \leq 1$

$Y1 + Y2\leq 1$ when Y1 = 0 and Y2 = 0 , when Y1 = 1 and Y2 = 0 and finally when Y1 = 0 and Y2 = 1

To calculate $P(Y1+Y2\leq 1)$ we must sume all the probabilities that satisfy the equation :

$P(Y1+Y2\leq 1)=P(Y1=0,Y2=0)+P(Y1=1,Y2=0)+P(Y1=0,Y2=1)$

$P(Y1=0,Y2=0)=(2C0)(0.2)^{0}(0.8)^{2-0}(0.3)^{0}(0.7)^{1-0}=(0.8)^{2}(0.7)=0.448$

$P(Y1=1,Y2=0)=(2C1)(0.2)^{1}(0.8)^{2-1}(0.3)^{0}(0.7)^{1-0}=2(0.2)(0.8)(0.7)=0.224$

$P(Y1=0,Y2=1)=(2C0)(0.2)^{0}(0.8)^{2-0}(0.3)^{1}(0.7)^{1-1}=(0.8)^{2}(0.3)=0.192$

$P(Y1+Y2\leq 1)=0.448+0.224+0.192=0.864\\P(Y1+Y2\leq 1)=0.864$

Use Bayes' rule to find the indicated probability. The incidence of a certain disease on the island of Tukow is 4%. A new test h

lina2011 [118]

These are the events in the question above:

D - has disease

H - healthy (does not have disease)

P - tests positive 

It is the probability that a person has the disease AND tests positive divided by the probability that the person tests positive.

Sick, + [.04*.91] = .0364

Sick, - [.04*.09] = .0036 

Healthy, + [.96*.04] = 0.0384

Healthy, - [.96*.96] = .9216


.0364 / (.0364 + .0.0384) = 0.487

Consider the conjecture that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is ALWAYS irrational. To try to prove this co

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

B) irrational. Since an irrational number cannot equal a rational number.

The premise that c is rational is false

Step-by-step explanation:

The assumption that c is rational means that the difference c-a must be rational. That difference is b, so b=c-a would mean that b must be rational. But b is defined to be irrational. Since an irrational number cannot equal a rational number, a contradiction arises and the assumption that c is rational must be false. Therefore the sum (c) must be irrational. (B)
