Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0114

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What is the probability of a fatal accident over a lifetime?

Suppose A be the event of a fatal accident occurring in a single trip.

Given that:

P(1 single auto trip in the United States result in a fatality) = P(A)

Then;

P(A) = 1/4011000

P(A) = 2.493 × 10⁻⁷

Now;

P(1 single auto trip in the United States NOT resulting in a fatality) is:

P([tex]\mathbf{\overline A}[/tex]) = 1 -  P(A)

P([tex]\mathbf{\overline A}[/tex]) = 1 - 2.493 × 10⁻⁷

P([tex]\mathbf{\overline A}[/tex]) = 0.9999997507

However, P(fatal accident over a lifetime) = P(at least 1 fatal accident in lifetime i.e. 46000 trips)

= 1 - P(NO fatal accidents in 46000 trips)

Similarly,

P(No fatal accidents over a lifetime) = P(No fatal accident in the 46000 trips) = P(No fatality on the 1st trip and No fatality on the 2nd trip ... and no fatality on the 45999 trip and no fatality on the 46000 trip)

= [tex][P(\overline A)] ^{46000} \ \ \ (since \ trips \ are \ independent \ events)[/tex]

= [tex][0.9999997507]^{46000}[/tex]

= 0.9885977032

Finally;

P(fatal accident over a lifetime) = 1 -  0.9885977032

P(fatal accident over a lifetime) = 0.0114022968

P(fatal accident over a lifetime) ≅ 0.0114

The length of a rectangle is 2 more than twice the width. The area of the
rectangle is 60. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. What is the length of
the rectangle?

Answers

Answer: w=5 , L= 2+2(5)=12

Step-by-step explanation:

L=2+2W

A= 60

LxW=60, now we will replace the L

(2+2W)(W)=60   we multiply

2w^2+2w=60

2w^2+2w-60=0  we divide by 2 the equation so we can work easier

w^2+w-30=0

find out w using the quadratic equation

we will get 2 solution,

w=5 and another solution is -6, which is not valid, as the side can not be negative

Mia made three times as many baskets in yesterday’s basketball game as she did last Saturday. She scored a total of 24 baskets for both games. How many baskets did Mia score last Saturday?

Answers

Based on the information presented, it can be inferred that Mia made 8 baskets last Saturday.

How to calculate how many baskets Mia made last Saturday?

To calculate the number of baskets Mia made last Saturday we must take into account the following information:

Yesterday she made 24 baskets.Last Saturday she made 3 times fewer baskets than yesterday.

To calculate the number of baskets Mia made, we must divide 24 by 3 to find the number of baskets she made last Saturday.

24 ÷ 3 = 8

So, it can be inferred that Mia made 8 baskets last Saturday.

(x + y)2, when x = 6 and y = 9.

Answers

Answer in screenshot.

When x = 6 and y = 9, the value of the expression (x + y)² is 225.

Given an expression:

(x + y)²

It is required to find the value of the expression when the value of x = 6 and the value of y = 9.

In order to find the required value of the expression when x = 6 and y = 9, it is required to substitute the value of x and y accordingly to the given expression.

So, substitute x = 6 and y = 9 in the expression (x + y)².

Then the expression becomes:

(x + y)² = (6 + 9)²

           = 15²

            = 225

Hence the value is 225.

Simplify the following expression: (3x+4)(x-1)(x-3)

Answers

Answer:

3x³ - 8x² - 7x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply these terms, (so expand the brackets). Referring to the diagram attached, we multiply the first terms, outer terms, inner terms, and last terms.

Let's first look at the first two (we will do something about the third brackets later):

(3x+4)(x-1)

Firsts:

3x²

Outer:

-3x

Inner:

4x

Last:

-4

Now we combine:

3x² - 3x + 4x - 4

= 3x² + x - 4

So from the whole equation, we now have this:

(3x² + x - 4)(x - 3)

We do a similar thing here.

3x³ - 9x² + x² - 3x - 4x + 12

Simplify:

3x³ - 8x² - 7x + 12

Lucy recently emptied her coin jar and counted the coins. 25% gold coins, 35% silver coins, 40% copper coins. If there were 80 coins in all, how many more silver coins than gold coins were there in the jar?

Answers

Answer:

There were 8 more silver coins than gold coins in the jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total coins in the jar = 80 coins

Gold coins = 25% of total coins

Number of gold coins = [tex]\frac{25}{100}*80[/tex]

Number of gold coins = 20

Silver coins = 35% of total

Number of silver coins = [tex]\frac{35}{100}*80[/tex]

Number of silver coins = 28

Copper coins = 40% of total

Number of copper coins = [tex]\frac{40}{100}*80=32[/tex]

Difference between silver and gold coins = No. of silver coins - No. of gold coins

Difference = 28-20 = 8

Hence,

There were 8 more silver coins than gold coins in the jar.

The general form of a hyperbola is 9x2−5y2−54x−10y+31=0.


What is the standard form of this hyperbola?

Answers

Answer:

The standard form of this hyperbola is [tex]\frac{(x-3)^{2}}{5}-\frac{(y+1)^{2}}{9} = 1[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

From Analytical Geometry, the standard form of the hyperbola is defined by the following expression:

[tex]\frac{(x-h)^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{(y-k)^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]a, b[/tex] - Semiaxis lengths, dimensionless.

[tex]h, k[/tex] - Coordinates of the center, dimensionless.

Let the hyperbola be defined by [tex]9\cdot x^{2}-5\cdot y^{2}-54\cdot x -10\cdot y +31=0[/tex], we proceed to derive the standard form by algebraic means:

1)  [tex]9\cdot x^{2}-5\cdot y^{2}-54\cdot x -10\cdot y +31=0[/tex] Given

2) [tex](9\cdot x^{2}-54\cdot x)+(-1) \cdot (5\cdot y^{2}+10\cdot y)+31 = 0[/tex] Commutative and associative properties/[tex](-1)\cdot a = -a[/tex]

3) [tex](9\cdot x^{2}-54\cdot x + 81)+(-81)+(-1)\cdot (5\cdot y^{2}+10\cdot y +5)+(-1)\cdot (-5)+31 = 0[/tex] Modulative, distributive and associative properties/[tex](-1)\cdot a = -a[/tex]/Existence of the additive inverse

4) [tex](3\cdot x-9)^{2}+(-1)\cdot (\sqrt{5}\cdot y +\sqrt{5})^{2}+(-81)+5+31 = 0[/tex] Perfect trinomial square/[tex](-a)\cdot (-b) = a\cdot b[/tex]/Commutative property

5) [tex]9\cdot (x-3)^{2}+(-1)\cdot (5) \cdot (y+1)^{2}-45 = 0[/tex] Distributive property/[tex](a\cdot b)^{c} = a^{c}\cdot b^{c}[/tex]/Definition of addition and subtraction.

6) [tex]9\cdot (x-3)^{2}-5\cdot (y+1)^{2}= 45[/tex]    [tex](-1)\cdot a = -a[/tex]/Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property.

7)  [tex]\frac{(x-3)^{2}}{5}-\frac{(y+1)^{2}}{9} = 1[/tex] Compatibility with multiplication/Definition of division/Distributive property/Result.

The standard form of this hyperbola is [tex]\frac{(x-3)^{2}}{5}-\frac{(y+1)^{2}}{9} = 1[/tex].
