The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Samir is an expert marksman. When he takes aim at a particular target on the shooting range, there is a 0.95 probability that he will hit it. One day, Samir decides to attempt to hit  10 such targets in a row.

Assuming that Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets, what is the probability that he will miss at least one of them?

Answer:

40.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'A' be the event of not missing a target in 10 attempts.

Therefore, the complement of event 'A' is \overline A=\textrm{Missing a target at least once}

Now, Samir is equally likely to hit each of the 10 targets. Therefore, probability of hitting each target each time is same and equal to 0.95.

Now, P(A)=0.95^{10}=0.5987

We know that the sum of probability of an event and its complement is 1.

So, P(A)+P(\overline A)=1\\\\P(\overline A)=1-P(A)\\\\P(\overline A)=1-0.5987\\\\P(\overline A)=0.4013=40.13\%

Therefore, the probability of missing a target at least once in 10 attempts is 40.13%.

Please help me. The function g(x) is a transformation of f(x). If g(x) has a y-intercept at 3, which of the following functions
Step2247 [10]
<h3>Answer: D. g(x) = f(x)+4</h3>

The graph shows f(x) to have a y intercept at -1, which is where the diagonal line crosses the y axis. We want the y intercept to move to 3. So we must add 4 to the old y intercept to get the new y intercept.

We do this with every single point on f(x) to get g(x) = f(x)+4. This shifts the graph up 4 units.

A thin sheet of ice is in the form of a circle. If the ice is melting in such a way that the area of the sheet is decreasing at
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

dx/dt  =  0,04 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle is:

A(c) =π*x²      where   x is a radius of the circle

Applying differentiation in relation to time we get:

dA(c)/dt   =  π*2*x* dx/dt    

In this equation we know:

dA(c)/dt  = 0,5 m²/sec

And are looking for dx/dt then

0,5  = 2*π*x*dx/dt    when the area of the sheet is 12 m²  (1)

When  A(c) = 12 m²      x = ??

A(c)  =  12  =  π*x²      ⇒    12  =  3.14* x²    ⇒  12/3.14  =  x²

x²  = 3,82     ⇒   x  = √3,82    ⇒  x = 1,954 m

Finally plugging ths value in equation (1)

0,5  = 6,28*1,954*dx/dt

dx/dt  =  0,5 /12.28

dx/dt  =  0,04 m/sec

A principal of $2000 is placed in a savings account at 3% per annum compounded annually. How much is in the account after one ye
natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After one year

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2000(1+0.03/12)^12*1

=2000(1+0.0025)^12

=2000(1.0025)^12

=2000(1.0304)

=$2060.8

After two-years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2060.8(1+0.03/12)^12*2

=2060.8(1+0.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0618)

=$2188.157

After three years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2188.157(1+0.03/12)^12*3

=2188.157(1+0.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0941)

=$2394.063

The two-way frequency table below shows data on student behavior and the use of positive phone calls home as an incentive for go
dusya [7]

Answer:

From the frequency table, let's calculate the row total.

Row total for phone call = 19 + 9 = 28

Row total for no phone call = 8 +6 = 14

To calculate their respective row relative frequencies, let's use:

Row relative freq = \frac{freq.}{Row total}

Now, the two-way frequency table will be computed as:

For phone call:

Desirable behavior = \frac{19}{28} = 0.67857 ≈0.69

Undesirable behaviour = \frac{9}{28} = 0.3214 ≈0.32

No phone call:

Desirable behaviour = \frac{8}{14} = 0.5714 ≈ 0.57

Undesirable behaviour = \frac{6}{14} = 0.4286 ≈ 0.43

The complete two-way table is attached.
