The major difference between square and rectangle is that a square has all its sides equal whereas a rectangle has its opposite sides equal. In Geometry, we have learnt different types of shapes such as square, rectangle, cube, cone, cylinder, parallelogram, rhombus, and so on.

All these shapes can fall under any one of the categories such as two-dimensional shapes or three-dimensional shapes. All the shapes can share a few characteristics. But they have many different characteristics properties that differentiate the shapes from each other. In this article, let us discuss the difference between a rectangle and a square in detail.

Yes. The probability of all 21 fencers not using the foil as their main weapon is small (less than 1%).No. The probability of all 21 fencers not using the foil as their main weapon is large (more than 10%).

Answers

Answer:

A.) the number of fencers that do not use the foil as their main weapon

B.) X : 0, 1, 2, 3,..., 21

C.) X ~ p(X) ; 21 ~ 0.4

D.) 21 ~ 0.4

E.) 0.0895

F.) Yes. The probability of all 21 fencers not using the foil as their main weapon is small (less than 1%)

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) since it is reported that 60% of fencers use the foil as their main weapon ;

The random variable (x) : number of fencers that do not use foil as their main weapon ;

( 100% - 60%) = (1 - 0.6) = 0.4

B.) values that X may take on :

Sample size = 21 ;

X : 0, 1, 2,..., 21

The distribution of X

X ~ B ; X ~ p(X) ; 21 ~ 0.4

Part (d) How many fencers are expected to not use the foil as their main weapon?

X * p(x)

21 * 0.4

= 8.4

= 8 (nearest whole number)

Part (e) Find the probability that eleven do not use the foil as their main weapon.

P(x = 11)

Using the binomial probability relation :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

P(x = 11) = 21C11 * 0.4^11 * 0.6^10

P(x = 11) = 0.0895

Part (f) Based on numerical values, would you be surprised if all 21 did not use foil as their main weapon?

P(x = 21) = 21C21 * 0.4^21 * 0.6^0

P(x = 21) = < 0.00001 ( approximately 0)

Hence, based on this very low value which is almost equal to 0 ; it will be surprising if all 21 do not use foil as their main weapon

You're a contestant on a TV gameshow where you must choose between four identical looking suitcases containing $100, $100, $300, and $400. You start by randomly picking one suitcase. The host then opens the remaining suitcase with the lowest dollar amount. Now, you have the choice to keep your current suitcase or switch to one of the two remaining suitcases. With probability p= 0.7, you keep your original suitcase and open it. Otherwise, you are equally likely to choose either of two the remaining suitcases and open it. You win the money in the suitcase you opened.

Consider these events:
Ai is the event that the first suitcase you choose is worth i dollars.
Hi is the event that the host opens a suitcase worth i dollars.
Wi is the event that you win i dollars.

If you play this game five times, the probability that the event W400 occurs twice in five trials is:_______

Answers

Answer:

0.2990 = 29.90%.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each trial, there are only two possible outcomes. Either you win $400, or you do not. Trials are independent. So 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.

Probability of winning $400 in a trial:

1/4 probability of choosing the suitcase containing $400, and in this case, 0.7 probability of keeping it.

3/4 probability of choosing another suitcase. Then, 0.3 of 3/4 probability of changing the suitcase, and 0.5 of 0.3 of 3/4 probability of getting the suitcase containing $400. So

[tex]p = \frac{1}{4}*0.7 + \frac{3}{4}*0.3*0.5 = 0.25*0.7 + 0.75*0.15 = 0.2875[/tex]

If you play this game five times, the probability that the event W400 occurs twice in five trials is:_______

This is P(X = 2) when n = 5. So

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.2875)^{2}.(0.7125)^{3} = 0.2990[/tex]

The probability is 0.2990 = 29.90%.

Answers

The 51 gram of sugar has 204 calorie and there is 62.5 gram of sugar in 250 calories.

What is a Measurement unit?

A measurement unit is a unit to measure certain quantities.

For example, the mass can be measured in kilograms, length can be measured in meter and time can be measured in seconds.

To find the measurement of a new quantity knows units can be used in operation. As to find the unit for speed we use m/s as a unit, where, m is the unit of distance and s is the unit of time.

Solve these problems using the conversion unit for calorie to gram.

(1) 1 gram = 4 calories

Then, 51 grams = 51 × 4

                         = 204 calories

(2) 4 calorie = 1 gram

    1 calorie = 1/4 gram

    250 calorie = 1/4 × 251

                        = 62.5 gram

Hence, smoothie containing 51 gram sugar has 204 calories and in 250 calories of smoothie there is 62.5 gram of sugar.

Solve (x - 2)^2 - 3 = 1 graphically. That is graph y = (x - 2)^2 - 3 and y = 1 on the same set of axes and find the x-value(s) of any points of intersection. Then use algebraic strategies to solve the equation and verify that your graphical solutions are correct.

Answers

Check the attachment(s) for the graphs pertaining to the question

No. 1) Check graph [first attachment]

No. 2) y = (x - 2)^2 - 3, y = 1

           (x - 2)^2 - 3 = 1,

           (x - 2)^2 = 4

            x - 2 = √4, x - 2 = - √4

            x = 4, x = 0

Substitute back to determine the respectively y-value:

y = (4 - 2)^2 - 3 = (2)^2 - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1

Check: y = (0 - 2)^2 - 3 = (-2)^2 - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1

So the points of intersection are (4, 1) and (0, 1). According to the graph, that is correct.

Find the mean, the median and the mode of 12, 13, 9, 8, 8, 7, 6, 8, 10​

Answers

Answer:

if I am not mistaken.. the median would be 9 and the the mean is also 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

first you order the numbers from least to greatest and the find with is the middle number to find the median.

6,7,8,8,8,9,10,12,13 (answer: 9)

To find the mean you will add all of the numbers up and then divide that number by the amount of numbers there are.

1) 6+7+8+8+8+9+10+12+13= 81

2) 81 ÷ 9 =9

Answer:

Mean: 9, Median: 8 Mode: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

MEAN:   The AVERAGE total of all the values divided by the numbers of values.

6 + 7+ 8 + 8 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 12 + 13 = 81        81/9 (set of #'s)= 9

MEDIAN:  The number in the MIDDLE of the list of values.

6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13         So, the middle value is 8

MODE:   The number that appears the most.

6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13         So, 8 appears 3 times.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

Twenty-one is greater than the sum of fifteen and two times a number​

let the number be x.

two times a number​ = 2x

and, sum of fifteen and two times a number​ = 15 + 2x

So, Twenty-one is greater than the sum of fifteen and two times a number​

21 > 15+ 2x
