At a certain intersection, the light for eastbound traffic is red for 15 seconds, yellow for 5 seconds, and green for 30 seconds. What is the probability that the light is red? Using the binomial distribution, what is the probability that out of the next eight eastbound cars that arrive randomly at the light, exactly three will be stopped by a red light?

a)P(red)=.15,P(exactly3getstopped)=.08

b)P(red)=.15,P(exactly3getstopped)=.97

c)P(red)=.3,P(exactly3getstopped)=.8

d)P(red)=.3,P(exactly3getstopped)=.25

Answers

Answer 1

The Probability of red light is 0.3

P(red) = 0.3

The probability that out of the next eight eastbound cars that arrive randomly at the light, exactly three will be stopped by a red light be 0.25.

P(exactly three get stopped by red light)=0.25

The correct option is (d) P(red)=.3,P(exactly 3 get stopped)=.25

What is Binomial distribution?

A binomial distribution can be thought of as simply the probability of a SUCCESS or FAILURE outcome in an experiment or survey that is repeated multiple times.

The occurrence,

Red light= 15 sec, Yellow light= 5 sec, Green light= 15 sec

p= probability of a red light

 =[tex]\frac{15}{15+5+30}[/tex]

 = [tex]\frac{15}{50}[/tex]

 = 0.3

Hence, Probability of getting red light be,

P (red)= 0.3

Now, the Binomial distribution formula,

Probability=( [tex]_r^nC[/tex])[tex]\;p^{r} \;q^{n-r}[/tex]

where, r = number of times for a specific outcome within n trials

[tex]_r^nC[/tex]   = number of combinations

p = probability of success on a single trial

q = probability of failure on a single trial

n = number of trial

According to question,

r= 3 (Exactly three)n=8 (eight eastbound)p(red) =0.3q= 1 -p

          = 1- 0.3

          = 0.7

Now using the formula, ( [tex]_r^nC[/tex])[tex]\;p^{r} \;q^{n-r}[/tex]

P( exactly 3  get stopped) = ( [tex]_3^8C[/tex])[tex]\;(0.3)^{3} \;(0.7)^{8-3}[/tex]

                                           

                                            = [tex]\frac{8!}{3!(8-3)!}[/tex] [tex](0.027) \; (0.7)^{5}[/tex]

                                           =  [tex]\frac{8!}{3!(5)!}[/tex][tex](0.027) \; (0.16807)[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{8 * 7 * 6 }{3 * 2}[/tex] x 0.027 x 0.16807

                                           = 56 x 0.00453789

                                           = 0.25412184

                                          ≈ 0.25

Hence, Probability of next eight eastbound so that exactly three will stopped by a red light be 0.25.

Multiply the number of gallons by 3.785 to convert to liters

Multiplying by ten moves the decimal point over to the right

3.785 * 10 = 37.85

The tenths place is where the 8 is, and since 5 is [tex]\geq[/tex] (greater than or equal to) 5 that makes the 8 round up to a 9

- A new rectangular lawn has a
perimeter of 298 ft. and a width of
67 ft. A bag of grass seed will cover
285 ft2 of ground. How many bags
of grass seed are needed to seed
the new lawn?

Answers

The number of bags of grass seed that are needed to seed the new rectangular lawn is approximately 19 bags .

Perimeter of a rectangle

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the whole sides of the rectangle.

Therefore,

perimeter of the rectangle = 298 ft

The width is 67 ft.

Hence

perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + w)

where

l  = lengthw = width

Therefore,

298 = 2 ( l + 67)

298 = 2l + 134

298 - 134 = 2l

164 = 2l

l = 164 / 2

l = 82 ft

Therefore,

area of the rectangle = 82 × 67 = 5494 ft²

285 ft² = 1 bag of grass seed

5494 ft² = ?

cross multiply

number of bag of grass seed to fill the new rectangular lawn = 5494 / 285

number of bag of grass seed to fill the new rectangular lawn = 19.2771929825

Answers

Answer:

The median is 69.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is also known as the middle value. To find the median, you first arrange your data in numerical order.

Numerical order:

50, 50, 53, 55, 55, 57, 62, 63, 64, 64, 65, 68, 68, 69, 69, 70, 71, 71, 71, 72, 72, 73, 75, 75, 75, 77, 77, 78, 79, 80

There are 30 numbers, which means that the median is between the 15th and 16th value (69 and 70).

69 + 70 = 139

139/2 = 69.5

Therefore, the median of this data set is 69.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the shape evenly so 11 x 14 and 9 x 9then multly and add

when slpitting up the number some times you have to add or subtract so to get 9 x 9 we just take 20 then take away 11 due to the line going through 20 and 20 - 11 = 9

9 x 9 = 81

11 x 14 = 154

81 + 154 = 235

or

Simular to the first one but the cutting line is different. this time the line cuts through 14

9 x 20 = 180

11 x 5 = 55

180 + 55 = 235

Let p(x) = x^2 + 8x + 12 and q(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - 6x. Define r(x) = p(x) \cdot q(x).

Find all values of x for which r(x) = 0.

Answers

The roots of the entire polynomic expression, that is, the product of p(x) = x^2 + 8x + 12 and q(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - 6x, are x₁ = 0, x₂ = -2, x₃ = -3 and x₄ = -6.

How to solve a product of two polynomials

A value of x is said to be a root of the polynomial if and only if r(x) = 0. Let be r(x) = p(x) · q(x), then we need to find the roots both for p(x) and q(x) by factoring each polynomial, the factoring is based on algebraic properties:

r(x) = (x + 6) · (x + 2) · x · (x² + 5 · x - 6)

r(x) = (x + 6) · (x + 2) · x · (x + 3) · (x + 2)

r(x) = x · (x + 2)² · (x + 3) · (x + 6)

By direct inspection, we conclude that the roots of the entire polynomic expression are x₁ = 0, x₂ = -2, x₃ = -3 and x₄ = -6. [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

6. A rectangle with a length of 15 feet has a
diagonal that measures 17 feet. Find the
perimeter of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

46 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a 8-15-17 Pythagorean Triple (or you can use the Pythagorean theorem)

P=8+8+15+15=46

The perimeter of the rectangle with a length of 15 feet and has a diagonal that measures 17 feet is: A. 46 feet.

What is the Perimeter of a Rectangle?

To find the perimeter of the rectangle, we need to know the width of the rectangle. Let's call the width of the rectangle W.

In a rectangle, the diagonal, length, and width are related by the Pythagorean theorem:

Diagonal² = Length² + Width²

In this case, the diagonal (D) is 17 feet, and the length (L) is 15 feet. So we have:

17² = 15² + W²

289 = 225 + W²

Now, let's solve for W:

W² = 289 - 225

W² = 64

W = √64

W = 8 feet

Now that we know the width is 8 feet, we can calculate the perimeter (P) of the rectangle:

Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)

= 2 * (15 + 8)

= 2 * 23

Perimeter = 46 feet
