Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we need the angle CAD, which can then be used to calculate the arc BD.
From definition of cosine,
cos(x) = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos(x) = AD / AC = 4000 / 4000.5 = 0.9998750156230471
The inverse function gives
x = arccosine (4000/4000.5)
= arccosine (0.9998750156230471)
= 0.01581056485742214 radians = 0.9058786380481468 degrees
Radius of the earth, r = 4000 miles
Arc BD = 2 time arc subtended by angle x
= 2 (rx) where x is in radians
= 2*4000*0.01581056485742214
= 126.48 miles (to two decimal places)
Answer:
a) For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15
b)
c)
d)
And using the result from part a we got:
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:
The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
Solution to the problem
Part a
For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15
Part b
For this case we want this probability:
And replacing we got:
Part c
For this case we want this probability:
And replacing we got:
Part d
For this cae we want thi probability:
And we can use the complment rule and we got:
And using the result from part a we got:
Sum of geometric sequence
for the sum where the initial value is a₁ and the common ratio is r and the term is n
common ratio is -3
-5 times -3 is 15, -15 times -3=-45 etc
first term is -5
and we want the 8th term
the sum is 8200
