A 3x3x4 cuboid is painted blue and cut into 1x1 cubes. what is the expected value for the painted sides of a randomly selected cube?

Answers

Answer 1

A 3 x 3 x 4 cuboid can be cut into 3(3) (4) = 36 pieces of 1 x 1 cubes.



Out of the 36 pieces of 1 x 1 cubes, there are no 1 x 1 cube with the four sides painted, there are eight 1 x 1 cubes with simply 3 sides painted, there are twenty 1 x 1 cubes with only 2 sides tinted, there are 6 cubes with only 1 side painted and there are 2 cubes with no side painted.



The chance that the four sides of a randomly selected cube is painted is 0.


The likelihood that only 3 sides of a randomly selected cube is painted is 8 / 36 = 2 / 9.


The chance that only 2 sides of a randomly selected cube is painted is 20 / 36 = 5 / 9.


The likelihood that only 1 side of a randomly selected cube is painted is 6 / 36 = 1 / 6.


The probability that no side of a randomly selected cube is painted is 2 / 36 = 1 / 18.


Thus, the expected value for the painted sides of a randomly selected cube is given by 4(0) + 3(2 / 9) + 2(5 / 9) + 1(1 / 6) + 0( 1 / 18) = 2 / 3 + 10 / 9 + 1 / 6 = 35 / 18 = 1.94

Nia is three years older than half Jordans age , if Jordan is eight years old , how old is Nia?

Answers

Hello! 

If Nia is three years older than half of Jordan's age, we must divide Jordan's age by 2 (to find half of his age).

Jordan is eight years old:
8 divided by 2 equals 4

4 years old is half of Jordan's age. Now, to find Nia's age, we must add 3 to half of Jordan's age (4).

4+3= 7
Nia is 7 years old.

Answers

I'm gonna go with C or B cause(based on Google)Banks use the money deposited on savings accounts to lend to borrowers, who pay interest on their loans. After paying for various costs, the banks pay money on savings deposits to attract new savers and keep the ones they have. 
Hey there!

Banks aren't in the business of being nice and actually get most of their revenue from their relentless overdraft fees. While it may seem like they're doing something nice or encouraging you to save your money, they're really just encouraging you to become a customer. They don't invest your money, since it needs to be present for you if you want to withdraw it. 

Interest on your savings is simply a method for getting new customers.

An important part of customer service responsibilities of a cable company relates to the speed with which trouble in service can be repaired. Historically, the data show that the likelihood is 0.75 that troubles in a residential service can be repaired on the same day. For the first 5 troubles reported on a given day, what is the probability that fewer than 2 troubles will be repaired on the same day?

Answers

The answer to your question is
D.  .2373


Hope this helps

Answer:

The probability that fewer than 2 troubles will be repaired on the same day is:

0.015576

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use the Binomial function is n=order to calculate the probability of r successes out of the n-events.

We know that the probability of r success out of the n-events is given by:

[tex]P(X=r\ successes)=n_C_r\cdot p^r\cdot (1-p)^{n-r}[/tex]

where p is the probability of an success.

Here we have:

n=5 and r=0,1.

since we are asked to find the probability that fewer than 2 troubles will be repaired on the same day.

i.e we have to find:

[tex]P(X<2)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)[/tex]

Also p=0.75 ( since, likelihood is 0.75 that troubles in a residential service can be repaired on the same day )

Hence,

[tex]P(X=0)=5_C_0\cdot (0.75)^{0}\cdot (1-0.75)^{5-0}\\\\P(X=0)=1\cdot 1\cdot (0.25)^5\\\\P(X=0)=0.000976[/tex]

and

[tex]P(X=1)=5_C_1\cdot (0.75)^{1}\cdot (0.25)^{5-1}\\\\P(X=1)=5\cdot (0.75)\cdot (0.25)^4\\\\P(X=1)=0.0146[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]P(X<2)=0.000976+0.0146\\\\P(X<2)=0.015576[/tex]

Hence,  the probability that fewer than 2 troubles will be repaired on the same day is:

0.015576

The sum of three numbers is 99. The first number is 9 more than the third. The second number is 4 times the third. What are the numbers?

Answers

first number=x+9
second number=4x
third number=x
4x+x+x+9=99
6x=90
x=15
 first number=24
second number=60
third number=15


Final answer:

The first number is 24, the second number is 60, and the third number is 15.

Explanation:

Let's assign variables to represent the three numbers. Let x represent the third number. Since the first number is 9 more than the third, we can write the equation:

First number = x + 9

Since the second number is 4 times the third, we can write the equation:

Second number = 4x

Now, we can add the three numbers together, according to the given information:

(x + 9) + 4x + x = 99

Simplifying this equation, we get:

6x + 9 = 99

Subtracting 9 from both sides, we have:

6x = 90

Dividing both sides by 6, we find:

x = 15

So the third number is 15. Plugging this value back into the two other equations, we find that the first number is 24 and the second number is 60. Therefore, the three numbers are 24, 60, and 15.

How to calculate a fraction of amount of a total amount ?

To calculate a fraction of amount of a total amount just multiply the given fraction to the total amount.

According to the given question

Michael  wittry has been investing in his roth IRA retirement account for 20 years.

Two years ago his account was worth $215,658.

1/3rd of it's original value is

= (1/3) × 215658

= 71886 dollars.

Remaining value is

=(215658 - 71886)

=143772 dollars.

After some time it gained half of it's new value back

∴ Half of this new value is

(1/2) × 143772

= 71886 dollars.

So , the current value is

(143772 + 71886)

=215658 dollars.

Suppose a line has slope 4 and passes through the point (-2, 5). Which other point must also be on the graph?

A) (2, 6) B) (-1, 9) C) (-1, 1) D) (-6, 4)

Answers

D) -6,4. because if it has a slope of 4 which is positive it has to have an uphill slope which passes through -2,5, in order for that to happen you plot it and make the line and count the rise over run till you have the slope of 4.

[tex]\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run}\implies 4\implies \cfrac{4}{1}[/tex]

so the rise is 4 units and the run is 1 unit, ok.

now, from point -2, 5, if we move 4/1, that is, "1  unit over the x-axis, and 4 units over the y-axis", we'll find another point, now, a fraction can be positive so long both top and bottom are the same sign, so -4/-1 is the same as 4/1 and therefore, if we move +4 and +1 over the axes we get a point, or if we move -4 and -1 we also get another point, and any other subsequent points from there on.
