9514 1404 393

Answer:

11.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance can be found using the distance formula:

d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

d = √((6 -(-2))² +(-4-4)²) = √(8² +(-8)²) = √(64·2)

d = 8√2 ≈ 11.3

The distance is approximately 11.3 units.

Describe two ways you could evaluate 37% of the sum of 27 3/5 and 15,9. Tell which method you would use and why.

Mama L [17]

First way is to first find the sum and then find 37% of it. Second way is another way round, find 37 of 27 3/5 and 37% of 15.9 and then add it.

Pre cal application: arithmetic and geometric sequences and series 1. a display of cans on a grocery store consists of 20 cans o

Paha777 [63]

This sequence starts with an initial set; let’s call it s1. This set contains 20 cans, and every set following would have two less cans than the last set. So,

s1=20
s2=s1-2=18
s3=s2-2=16
•
•
•
s9=s8-2=4

How many cans in the display represents the value of each set added together, so we can denote this as

s1+s2+s3+...+s9

and replacing with values:

20+18+16+...+4 = 108

The number of cans in the display equals 108.

(The set notation seems weird, but by practicing this application now, the Calculus version will seem easier.)

Suppose the number of hits a webpage receives follows a Poisson distribution. The average number of hits per minute is 2.4. What

REY [17]

Answer:

The probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute is 0.9093.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of hits a web page receives per minute.

The random variable X follows a Poisson distribution with parameter,

λ = 2.4.

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

$P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0,1,2,...$

Compute the probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute as follows:

P (X ≥ 1) = 1 - P (X < 1)

= 1 - P (X = 0)

$=1-\frac{e^{-2.4}(2.4)^{0}}{0!}\\=1-\frac{0.09072\times1}{1} \\=1-0.09072\\=0.90928\\\approx0.9093$

Thus, the probability that the page will get at least one hit during any given minute is 0.9093.
