a. Express the odds for each actress winning as a probability. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
Best Actress Probability
Anne Hathaway
Angelina Jolie
Melissa Leo

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Anne Hathaway: 0.154 = 15.4%

Angelina Jolie: 0.048 = 4.8%

Melissa Leo: 0.029 = 2.9%

Meryl Streep: 0.231 = 23.1%

Kate Winslet: 0.714 = 71.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Odds to probability:

Odds of a:b

The probability is given by:

[tex]p = \frac{a}{a+b}[/tex]

Anne Hathaway 2:11

So [tex]p = \frac{2}{2+11} = \frac{2}{13} = 0.154[/tex]

Angelina Jolie 1:20

So [tex]p = \frac{1}{1+20} = \frac{1}{21} = 0.048[/tex]

Melissa Leo 1:33

So [tex]p = \frac{1}{1+33} = \frac{1}{34} = 0.029[/tex]

Meryl Streep 3:10

So [tex]p = \frac{3}{3+10} = \frac{3}{13} = 0.231[/tex]

Kate Winslet 5:2

So [tex]p = \frac{5}{5+2} = \frac{5}{7} = 0.714[/tex]

Automated electron backscattered diffraction is now being used in the study of fracture phenomena. The following information is on misorientation angle (degrees).
Class: 0−<5 5−<10 10−<15 15−<20 20−<30 30−<40 40−<60 60−<90 Rel freq: 0.176 0.169 0.179 0.139 0.193 0.075 0.040 0.029
A) What proportion of the sampled angles are at least 30°? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
B) Roughly what proportion of angles are between 10° and 25°? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
C) Construct a histogram. Comment on any interesting features. Select all that apply
1. There are two obvious outliers.
2. Without more precise information, we cannot tell if the data contain outliers.
3. The distribution of misorientation angles is approximately symmetric.
4. The distribution of misorientation angles is heavily negatively skewed.
5. The distribution of misorientation angles is heavily positively skewed.
6. The distribution of misorientation angles is bimodal.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

Classes        Relative Frequency

0 - < 5            0.176

5 - < 10           0.169

10 - < 15         0.179

15 - < 20        0.139

20 - < 30       0.193

30 - < 40       0.075

40 - < 60       0.040

60 - < 90       0.029

                          1

(a)

So from above; the proportion of samples that are at least 30° can be computed as:

P(at least 30°) = (0.075 + 0.040 + 0.029)

P(at least 30°) = 0.144

(b)

The proportion of angles between 10° and 25°  = (0.179 + 0.139 + 0.193)

= 0.511

(c) The histogram is constructed by using the EXCEL. The step in making the histogram include;

Insert the class and relative frequency as a data set in the excel sheetSelect relative frequencychoose insertselect chartchose 2-D column(make sure you choose the first option)select bars and tap format series, then adjust the gaps.

From the histogram, the chart doesn't show an outlier. The relative frequency is not also symmetrically distributed relating to the class due to the fact that the histogram does not possess a bell shape curve. Finally, we cannot determine if the distribution is positively skewed or negatively skewed because the distribution is bimodal.

Answer: -5 is equal to x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is since you just make y = 0 to solve, so

0=x+5

= -5=x

Answer:

x=-8 and y=2 / x=-5 and x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

put x as 0 to find y

y=1÷4x+2

y=1÷4×0+2

y=0+2

y=2

put y as 0 to find x

y=1÷4x+2

0=1÷4x+2

-2+0=1÷4x

-2=1÷4x

1÷4x=-2

1x=-2×4

x=-8

y=x+5

0=x+5

x=-5

y=0+5

Prove that
sinAtanA/1-cosA
= 1 + SECA

Answers

Answer:

The proof is done in the step-by-step explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following identity:

[tex]\frac{\sin{A}\tan{A}}{1-\cos{A}}[/tex]

And we have to show that this is equals to:

[tex]1 + \sec{A}[/tex]

Multiplying numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator:

[tex]\frac{\sin{A}\tan{A}}{1-\cos{A}} \times \frac{1+\cos{A}}{1+\cos{A}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\sin{A}\tan{A}(1+\cos{A})}{1 - \cos^2{A}}[/tex]

We use these following identities:

[tex]\sin^2{A} + \cos^2{A} = 1[/tex]

So

[tex]1 - \cos^2{A} = \sin^2{A}[/tex]

Also:

[tex]\tan{A} = \frac{\sin{A}}{\cos{A}}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\frac{\sin{A}\sin{A}(1+\cos{A})}{\cos{A}\sin^2{A}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\sin^2{A}(1+\cos{A})}{\cos{A}\sin^2{A}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1 + \cos{A}}{\cos{A}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\cos{A}} + \frac{\cos{A}}{\cos{A}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\cos{A}} + 1[/tex]

Since:

[tex]\sec{A} = \frac{1}{\cos{A}}[/tex]

We have that:

[tex]1 + \sec{A}[/tex]

Thus, the proof is done.

The speed of a fish before jumping out of the water can be represented by the equation s = 3h, where h

represents the height, in centimeters, the fish jumps out of the water and s represents the speed of the fish in

meters per second. If the fish is swimming at 15 meters per second before jumping out of the water, how high

can the fish jump?

Answers

Answer: The fish can jump 5m high.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

s = 3h

where

h  = the height(cm) the fish jumps out of the water

and s = speed of the fish(meters per second)  then

3 must have seconds as its unit.

Now, If the fish is swimming at 15 meters per second

Then the fish can jump =

s= 3h

15m/s =3h

h= 15m/s/3s

h= 5 meters

Answers

Answer:

The constant of  proportionality is 7.87.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between x and y is given by the equation :

y = 7.87x

y is directly proportional to x i.e.

y ∝ x

To remove the constant of proportionality, a constant 7.87 is inserted. Hence, the constant of  proportionality is 7.87.

Collect like terms, so gather all your x's on one side, and numbers in the other.  Add -6x and +15 to both sides, so you get -2x - 6x = +9 + 15, so we have -8x = 24, divide both sides by -8 you get x = -3.

The cost c varies directly as the numbers n of pencils is written as A. c = kn B. k+ cn C. n = k/c D. c =k/n

Answers

Answer:

A. c = kn

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost c varies directly as the numbers n of pencils

This means that c is a multiplication of a constant by n, which is the number of pencils. So the equation for the cost is given by:

[tex]c = kn[/tex]

In which k is the constant of proportionality, that is, the cost of each pencil. So the correct answer is given by option A.

I worked them out myself so if their wrong uh please don't get mad I tried my best.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x (2) + 15x = 18                               3x (2) + 15x = 18

6x + 15x = 18                                     6x + 15x = 18  

-6x + -6x = 18                                            -18     -18

--------------------------                             ------------------------

0 + 9x = 18                                            6x + -3 = 0
