Military radar and missile detection systems are designed to warn a coutry of an enemy attack. Assume that a particular detection system has a 0.80 probability of detecting a missile attack. If two military radars are insalled in two different areas and they operate independently, the probability that at least one of them detect an enemy attack is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.96 = 96% probability that at least one of them detect an enemy attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each radar, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it detects the attack, or it does not. The missiles are operated independently, which means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Assume that a particular detection system has a 0.80 probability of detecting a missile attack.

This means that [tex]p = 0.8[/tex]

If two military radars are installed in two different areas and they operate independently, the probability that at least one of them detect an enemy attack is

This is [tex]P(X \geq 1)[/tex] when [tex]n = 2[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.8)^{0}.(0.2)^{2} = 0.04[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96[/tex]

0.96 = 96% probability that at least one of them detect an enemy attack.

Find the value of x and the value of y

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle

SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp

CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp

TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj

use Cos for y .... b/c we see that function above has all the pieces we are going to work with

use Sin for x .. for the same reason above

Cos(30) = y / 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]Cos(30) = y

4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex][tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]/2 = y

2[tex]\sqrt{6}[/tex] = y

leave the answer for y like that.. it's in  'exact" form

now for x

Sin(30) = x / 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]Sin(30) = x

4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]* 1/2 = x

2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] = x

and leave your answer for x like that as it's in it's exact form.  :)

Two sides of a right triangle are 8 and 12. Find the missing side of 8 and 12 are a leg and a hypotenuse.​

Answers

Answer:

8.94 if no rounding is necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem. What we know is only one leg and the hypotenuse, sooo...

8² + b² = 12²

64 + b² = 144

Subtract 64 from both sides...

64 - 64 + b² = 144 - 64

b² = 80

[tex]\sqrt{80}[/tex] = 8.94 if you're not rounding.

Choose the fraction that goes in the blank. 5/12 >_______> 3/4


5/6

1/4

2/3

7/8

Answers

The fraction that goes in the blank is 5/12 > 4/3 > 3/4

To compare fractions, we can either find a common denominator or convert them to decimals. Let's find a common denominator for 5/12 and 3/4. The smallest number that both 12 and 4 can divide evenly into is 12.
To convert 5/12 to a fraction with a denominator of 12, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 1, which is the same as 12/12. This gives us 5/12 = 5 * 1 / 12 * 1 = 5/12.
Now let's convert 3/4 to a fraction with a denominator of 12. To do this, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 3, which is the same as 3/3. This gives us 3/4 = 3 * 3 / 4 * 3 = 9/12.
Comparing 5/12 and 9/12, we can see that 9/12 is larger than 5/12.
Now, let's compare 9/12 and the fractions given as options: 3/4, 5/6, 1/4, 2/3, and 7/8.
From these fractions, 4/3 is the only one that is larger than 9/12. Therefore, the fraction that goes in the blank is 4/3.
Remember, when comparing fractions, finding a common denominator or converting them to decimals can help determine their relative sizes.

Since KLM and MLN are complementary they add up to 90 degrees.

LM bisects KLN so it divides it to two equal parts so 90/2= 45 degrees

So, KLM and MLN are both 45 degrees.

Reasoning : Why is the numerator greater than

the denominator in a fraction that is equivalent

to a percent greater than 100?

Answers

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

When the numerator is less than the denominator, the result is always less than 1, that is 0. something and this will give a percentage less than 100, but when the numerator is greater than the denominator, th result is greater than 1, and any figure greater than 1 gives a percentage that is greater than 100

example

Numerator >Denominator

=4/2*100

=2*100

=200%

Numerator <Denominator

=2/4*100

=0/5*100

=50%

(i) both are selected
2) exactly one is selected
3) none is selected​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(Both) = \frac{3}{25}[/tex]

[tex]P(One) = \frac{12}{25}[/tex]

[tex]P(None) = \frac{22}{25}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(H) = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P(W) = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Solving (a): Both selected

[tex]P(Both) = P(H) * P(W)[/tex]

[tex]P(Both) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P(Both) = \frac{3}{25}[/tex]

Solving (b): One selected.

This event can be represented as: HW' or H'W

So:

[tex]P(One) = P(H) * P(W') + P(H') * P(W)[/tex]

Where:

P(W') = 1 - P(W) and P(H') = 1 - P(H).

So:

[tex]P(One) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{4}{5} + \frac{2}{5} * \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P(One) = \frac{12}{25} + \frac{2}{25}[/tex]

[tex]P(One) = \frac{12}{25}[/tex]

Solving (c): None selected.

This is the complement of (a) above.

i.e.

[tex]P(None) = 1 - P(Both)[/tex]

[tex]P(None) = 1 - \frac{3}{25}[/tex]

[tex]P(None) = \frac{25 - 3}{25}[/tex]

[tex]P(None) = \frac{22}{25}[/tex]

3. Penguins can swim at speeds of up to 29 feet per second. Use dimensional analysis to
convert this speed to miles per hour. 1 mile = 5280 feet. (4 pts, 1 for feet into miles, 1
seconds into hours, 1 simplified answer, 1 for units in answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Penguins can swim at a speed of 19.77 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since penguins can swim at speeds of up to 29 feet per second, to convert this speed to miles per hour, knowing that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet, the following calculation must be performed:

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 hour = 60x60 seconds = 3,600 seconds

29 x 3,600 = feet per hour = 104,400

104,400 / 5,280 = miles per hour = 19.77

Thus, penguins can swim at a speed of 19.77 miles per hour.
