How many randomly chosen guests should I invite to my party so that the probability of having a guest with the same birthday as mine is at least 2/3?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

At least 401 chosen guests

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent those with same birth day with Same

So:

[tex]P(Same) > \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Represent number of people with n

There are 365 days in a year and 364 days out of these days is not your birthday.

So, there the probability that n people do not share your birthday is [tex](\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]P(none) = (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

Solving further, we have that:

[tex]P(same) + P(none) = 1[/tex]

[tex]P(same) + (\frac{364}{365})^n = 1[/tex]

[tex]P(same) = 1 - (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

We're calculating the probability that [tex]P(Same) > \frac{2}{3}[/tex].

So, we have:

[tex]1 - (\frac{364}{365})^n > \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]1 - \frac{2}{3}> (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3-2}{3}> (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3}> (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

[tex]3^{-1} > (\frac{364}{365})^n[/tex]

Take natural logarithm (ln) of both sides

[tex]ln(3^{-1}) > ln((\frac{364}{365})^n)[/tex]

[tex]-ln\ 3 > n\ ln\ (\frac{364}{365})[/tex]

Apply laws of logarithm

[tex]-ln\ 3 > n\ (ln(364) - ln(365))[/tex]

Multiply through by -1

[tex]ln\ 3 < n\ (ln(365) - ln(364))[/tex]

Solve for n

[tex]\frac{ln\ 3}{(ln(365) - ln(364))} < n[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]n > \frac{ln\ 3}{(ln(365) - ln(364))}[/tex]

[tex]n > \frac{1.09861228867}{(5.89989735358 - 5.89715386764)}[/tex]

[tex]n> \frac{1.09861228867}{0.00274348594}[/tex]

[tex]n > 400.443928891[/tex]

[tex]n > 400[/tex] (approximated)

This implies that n = 401, 402, 403 .....

i.e

[tex]n \geq 401[/tex]

So, at least 401 people has to be invited

A smoke jumper jumps from a plane that is 1500 ft above the ground. The function h= -16? + 1500 gives the jumper's height hin feet during the free fall att seconds
a. How long is the jumper in free fall if the parachute opens at 1000 ft?
b. How long is the jumper in free fall if the parachute opens at 940 ft?
c. What is a reasonable domain and range for the function h? no

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is h(t) = -16t² + 1500

a). For h(t) = 1000 feet,

   1000 = -16t² + 1500

   1000 - 1500 = -16t² + 1500 - 1500

   -500 = -16t²

    t² = [tex]\frac{500}{16}[/tex]

    t = [tex]\sqrt{31.25}[/tex]

    t = 5.59 sec

b). For h(t) = 940 feet,

   940 = -16t² + 1500

   940 - 1500 = -16t² + 1500 - 1500

   -16t² = -560

   t² = [tex]\frac{-560}{-16}[/tex]

   t = [tex]\sqrt{35}[/tex]

   t = 5.92 sec

c). For domain and range of the function,

  When the jumper comes down to the ground,

   h = 0

   0 =-16t² + 1500

   t² = [tex]\frac{1500}{16}[/tex]

   t = [tex]\sqrt{93.75}[/tex]

   t = 9.68 sec

  Since, x-values on the graph vary from x = 0 to x = 9.68,

  Domain : [0, 9.68]

  Vertex of the quadratic function: (0, 1500)

  Since, coefficient of the highest degree term is negative, parabola will open downwards.

  Therefore, y-values of the function will vary in the interval y = 0 to y = 1500

  Range: [0, 1500]

Every 125 pages that Raul reads during his summer reading challenge, he will collect 5 book points to use at his local library. Which graph models a relationship with the same unit rate?

Answers

Answer:

d. J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul gets 5 (y) book points for every 125 (x) pages he reads during summer challenge, we can say that his unit rate would be: y/x = 5/125 = 1/25.

Raul's unit rate is 1/25 book point to each page he reads.

Graph J also has a unit rate of 1/25 (y/x).

Therefore graph J models a relationship with the same unit rate.

^DEF and ^RSQ are shown in the diagram below

Based on the information provided in the diagram, what is mZQ in degrees?

Answers

Answer:

53.3 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

∆DEF and ∆RSQ are similar. We know this, because the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. That is:

DE corresponds to RS

EF corresponds to SQ

DF corresponds to RQ.

Also <D corresponds to <R, <E corresponds to <S, and <F corresponds to <Q.

The ratio of their corresponding sides = DE/RS = 6/3 = 2

EG/SQ = 8/4 = 2

DF/RQ = 4/2 = 2.

Since the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal, it means ∆DEF and ∆RSQ are similar.

Therefore, their corresponding angles would be equal.

Thus, m<Q = m<F

Let's find angle F

m<F = 180 - (98 + 28.7)

m<F = 53.3°

Since <F corresponds to <Q, therefore,

m<Q = 53.3°

Instead of handing out candy like a well-adjusted person on Halloween, grumpy, anti-social Professor Sosa decides to stand on top of a 400 ft building and toss candy treats onto the ground below. If he drops a bag of candy corn, how long will it take for it to land on the ground? What will the velocity of the bag be when it hits the ground?

Answers

Answer: The bag of candy corn will take 5 seconds to land on the floor and it will hit it with velocity of 49m/s.

Step-by-step explanation: A free falling object has only Gravitational Force acting on it, so acceleration will be due to gravity, which has magnitude

g = 9.8m/s².

As Professor Sosa drops the bag, its initial velocity and time are 0.

The building has a height of 400ft, so adjusting units: y = 121.92 m and [tex]y_{0}[/tex] = 0.

For this problem, going down will be the positive reference.

Then:

[tex]y=y_{0}+v_{0}t+\frac{g}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta y=v_{0}t+\frac{g}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]121.92=\frac{9.8}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{121.92*2}{9.8} }[/tex]

t ≈ 5

It will take 5s for the candy corn bag to land on the ground.

Acceleration is the change in velocity per change in time, so:

[tex]g=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}[/tex]

As initial velocity and time are 0 and rearraging it:

v = g.t

v = 9.8*5

v = 49

The bag will hit the ground with velocity of magnitude 49 m/s.

Answers

ok so 16.(1+3) = 16 . 4 = 64 so let's solve them A = (16 . 1) + (3 . 16) .. here it's right because we split the 6 on each number ... if you want a prove solve it (16 . 1 ) + (3 . 16 ) = 64 B = (3+1) . 16 = 4 . 16 = 64C = (16 +3) . 1 = 19 . 1 = 19 D = 161 + 163 = 324

so A & B = 64 .... so yeah right A & B are the correct answers
