Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

a)

b) They expect to stop 3.3 cars before finding a driver whose seatbelt is not buckled.

For each driver, there are only two possible outcomes, either they wear their seatbelts, or they do not. The probability of a driver wearing their seatbelt is independent of any other driver, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The variance of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]V(X) = np(1-p)[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

In this problem:

Item a:

[tex]E(X) = np = 40(0.3) = 12[/tex]

[tex]V(X) = np(1-p) = 40(0.3)(0.7) = 8.4[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{40(0.3)(0.7)} = 2.9[/tex]

Hence:

Item b:

The number of trials until q successes of a binomial variable is modeled by a geometric distribution, with expected value given by:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{q}{p}[/tex]

In this problem, one success, hence [tex]q = 1[/tex] and:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{q}{p} = \frac{1}{0.3} = 3.3[/tex]

They expect to stop 3.3 cars before finding a driver whose seatbelt is not buckled.

Answer Interest rate = 12.3%

The compound interest formula is given by:

Where

A = Future amount

P = Present amount (Principal amount)

r = Interest rate in decimal form

n = No. of times compounded per year

t = time in years.

We can say that if:

Present amount = P

Future amount = 3P

r = 12.3/100 = 0.123

n = 1

t = ?

Substitute the values in the formula of compound interest:

Taking log on both sides.

Given points are P(4,m) and Q(-2,4)

Let (x1, y1) = P(4,m)

Where, • x1 = 4 and • y1 = m

Let (x2, y2) = Q(-2,4)

Where, • x2 = -2 and • y2 = 4

We know that

The coordinates of the mod point of the linesegment joining the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

is M(x,y) = ( {x1+x2}/2 , {y1+y2}/2 )

Mid point of the linesegment PQ

⇛M(x,y) = ( { 4+(-2)}/2 ,{m+4}/2)

⇛M(x,y) = {(4-2)/2 , {m+4}/2)

⇛M(x,y) = (2/2,{m+4}/2)

⇛M(x,y) = (1,{m+4}/2)

According to the given problem

Mid point of PQ = C(n,-1)

M(x,y) = C(n,-1)

(1,{m+4}/2) = (n,-1)

On Comparing both sides then

1 = n and (m+4)/2 = -1

n = 1 and m+4 = -2

n = 1 and m = -2-4

n = 1 and m = -6

Hence, the value of m&n will be (1&-6) respectively.

Additional comment:

The coordinates of the mod point of the linesegment joining the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

is M(x,y) = ( {x1+x2}/2 , {y1+y2}/2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

thats the aswer

The measure for angle W is 80 degree.

A unrestricted polygon or figure with four sides, four corners, and four angles is called a trapezium. Each brace of a trapezium's opposing sides is resemblant to the other.

Similar to other quadrilaterals, the trapezium's four angles add up to 360°. Two of the sides of a trapezium are parallel, and the other two are not. Regular trapezium diagonals cut each other in half.

Given:

We have angles <X= 100, <Y = 130 and <Z= 66.

As, we know that in Trapezium the sum of adjacent angle is 180.

So, <X + <W = 180

100 + <W =180

<W= 180- 100

<W = 80 degree.

Answer:   [tex]\boldsymbol{-25+18\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

The expression is in the form [tex]a+b\sqrt{2}[/tex] where a = -25 and b = 18

==========================================================

Work Shown:

Let [tex]x = 3\sqrt{2}[/tex] and then square both sides

[tex]x = 3\sqrt{2}\\\\x^2 = \left(3\sqrt{2}\right)^2\\\\x^2 = \left(3\right)^2*\left(\sqrt{2}\right)^2\\\\x^2 = 9*2\\\\x^2 = 18\\\\[/tex]

We'll use both x and x^2 later on.

---------------------

The denominator is in the form 4+x. We'll multiply top and bottom by 4-x to then use the difference of squares rule. This will allow us to eliminate the square root in the denominator.

[tex]\frac{8-3\sqrt{2}}{4+3\sqrt{2}}\\\\\frac{8-x}{4+x}\\\\\frac{(8-x)(4-x)}{(4+x)(4-x)}\\\\\frac{32-8x-4x+x^2}{16-x^2} \ \text{ difference of squares rule}\\\\\frac{32-12x+x^2}{16-x^2}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{32-12*3\sqrt{2}+18}{16-18} \ \text{ plug in } x = 3\sqrt{2} \text{ and } x^2 = 18\\\\\frac{50-36\sqrt{2}}{-2}\\\\\frac{-2(-25+18\sqrt{2})}{-2}\\\\\boldsymbol{-25+18\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{8-3\sqrt{2}}{4+3\sqrt{2}}=\boldsymbol{-25+18\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

-------------------------------------

Checking the answer:

Use a calculator to find that,

[tex]\frac{8-3\sqrt{2}}{4+3\sqrt{2}} \approx 0.45584412271571 \\\\-25+18\sqrt{2} \approx 0.45584412271571[/tex]

We get the same decimal approximation, which helps confirm the correct answer.

Or you could use the idea that if M = N, then M-N = 0 to subtract the original expression M and the final result N. You should get 0 or very close to it.

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 53+8+155+17+145+10+98+2=488 physicians of aerospace medicine. 45-54 year-old males account for 145/488 of this population, so they should account for that fraction of the central angle of the circle graph also. Since there are 360 degrees in the central angle to divide up among the groups, the 45-54 year-old male group should get 145/488 x 360 which rounds to about 107 degrees.

C I took the test

The equation of Finley's annual salary represents 57,000(1.04n – 1) during the nth year.

The percentage is defined as ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

Finley was paid an annual salary of $57,000

with a 4% raise for each following year

Finley's annual salary, during the 2th year

⇒ 4% of 57,000 + 57,000

⇒ (0.04)57,000 + 57,000

⇒ 2280 + 57,000

⇒ 59280

Finley's annual salary, during the 2th year

Determine the difference between year 2 and year 1 salary.

Rate of change = 4% of 57,000 - 57,000

Rate of change = (0.04)57,000 - 57,000

Rate of change = 57,000(0.04 - 1)

Finley's annual salary, during the 5th year

Determine the difference between year 5 and year 4 salary

⇒ 57,000(0.04(5) - 1)

That's the constant.

Finley's annual salary, during the nth year

So, f (n) = 57,000(1.04n – 1)

Hence, the equation of Finley's annual salary represents 57,000(1.04n – 1) during the nth year.

It has no solution because, 14x cancels out -14x when you move the variables to the left and leaves the equation as 0 = -12, however we know that 0 does not equal -12 which means this solution is false; therefore this equation has no solution since 0 does not equal -12.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 - 4x - 7 - 10x = -8x - 4 - 6x - 10 (Given)

-2 - 14x = -14x - 14 (Combine like terms)

0 = -12 (Move variables(x) to the left and the constants to the right)
