A college requires all freshmen to take Math and English courses. Records show that 24% receive an A in English course, while only 18% receive an A in Math course. Altogether, 35.7% of the students get an A in Math course or English course. What is the probability that a student who receives an A in Math course will also receive an A in English course

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Maths

E = English

P(M ∪ E) = P(M) + P(E) - P( M ∩ E)

From the question:

P(M ∪ E) = 35.7%

P(M) = 18%

P(E) = 24%

P( M ∩ E) = unknown

35.7% = 18% + 24% - P( M ∩ E)

35.7% = 42% - P( M ∩ E)

P( M ∩ E) = 42% - 35.7%

P( M ∩ E) = 7.3%

Therefore, the probability that a student who receives an A in Math course will also receive an A in English course is 7.3%.

Answer:

x² +3x -8x -24(x² +3x) +(-8x -24)x(x +3) -8(x +3)(x +3)(x -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is trying to help you understand a method of factoring trinomials.

The first step is to look at the linear term (-5x) and the constant term (-24) and identify the coefficients and their signs: -5 and -24.

The next step is to identify factors of -24 (the constant) that have a sum equal to -5 (the linear term coefficient). We can look at the ways that -24 can be factored:

  -24 = 1(-24) = 2(-12) = 3(-8) = 4(-6)

The sums of these factor pairs are 1-24=-23, 2-12=-10, 3-8=-5, 4-6=-2. Of course, the pair we're looking for is +3 and -8.

The next step from here is to rewrite the linear term using these factors. (-5x=3x-8x) This is the first step of the sequence shown in the figure:

  x² +3x -8x -24

The next step is to group these terms in pairs:

  (x² +3x) +(-8x -24)

And then, to factor each pair using the distributive property:

  x(x +3) -8(x +3)

Finally, finish the factoring, again using the distributive property:

  (x +3)(x -8)

Answers

Answer:

x = 1.25, y = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller and larger triangles are similar triangles. (the 2 triangles have the same angles).

We know that the smaller triangle has length 8 for it's bottom side when the larger triangle has length 10. This means the scale factor between the 2 is 10 / 8 which is 1.25. Therefore by multiplying the side lengths of the smaller triangle by 1.25 we get the side lengths of the larger triangle.

5 * 1.25 = 6.25

7 * 1.25 = 8.75

However we don't want the whole side lengths we want x and y, We need to subtract 5 and 7 respectively from the lengths of the larger triangles.

Therefore the lengths must be: 6.25 - 5 = 1.25

and 8.75 - 7 = 1.75

Therefore x and y equal 1.25 and 1.75

Coffee is sold in two different sized canisters. The smaller canister has a diameter of 9 cm and a height of 12 cm. The larger canister is double the size of the small canister. Calculate the volume and surface area of each canister and compare the results of doubling the dimensions.

Answers

Answer:

volume 1 =763 cm3

volume 2 = 6,104 cm3

Second volume is 8 times greater than the first volume.

Surface area 1 = 466 cm2

surface area 2 =1,865 cm2

second surface area is 4 times greater than the first surface area .

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder: π radius^2 x height

Radius = diameter /2 = 9/2 = 4.5

V = 3.14 x 4.5^2 x 12 = 763 cm3

Surface area: (3.14 r^2)2 + 2(π x radius x height)

Sa = (3.14 x 4.5^2 )2 + 2(3.14 x 4.5 x 12 )=466 cm2

Since the second canister is double the size:

Radius = 4.5 x 2 = 9

Height = 12 x 2 =24

V = 3.14 x 9^2 x 24 = 6,104 cm3

Sa = (3.14 x 9^2 )2 + 2(3.14 x 9 x 24 )=1,865 cm2

Dividing the second volume by the first one:

6,104/ 763 = 8  

Second volume is 8 times greater than the first volume.

Dividing the second surface area by the first one:

1865/466 = 4

second surface area is 4 times greater than the first surface area .

Container 1 has 174 lires of oil, Container 2 has 258 litres of oil. Sam pours entire contents of container 1 into smaller jars, so that the oil completely fills the jars and there is no oil left. He also pours the entire contents of container 2 into the same size jars so that there is no oil left. What can the maximum size of the smaller jars be?

Answers

Answer:

The maximum size of the smaller jars is 6 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Container 1=174 liters of oil

Container 2=258 liters of oil

Same pours the entire content of container one and container 2 into the same number of smaller jars

The maximum size of the smaller jar can be found by finding the highest common factor of 174 and 258

Factors of 174=1,2,3,6,29

Factors of 258=1,2,3,6,43

Common factors of 174 and 258=1,2,3 and 6

Highest common factor=6

Therefore,

The maximum size of the smaller jars is 6 liters

Find the measure of the missing angles in the kite.

Answers

Answer:

1: 90º

2: 25º

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well we know that all the middle angles are 90º right angles,

so we can conclude that angle 1 is 90º.

All the angles in a triangle add up to 180 so we can set up the following,

65 + 90 + x = 180

Combine like terms

155 + x = 180

-155 to both sides

x = 25º

So angle 2 is 25º.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the kite you easily notice that 1 is a right angle so its mesure is 90°.

2 is inside a triangle. This triangke has two khown angles: a right one and a 65° one.

The sum of a triangle's angles is 180°.

● (2) + 90+65 = 180

● (2) +155 =180

● (2)= 180-155

●(2) = 25°

find the coordinates of the point satisfying lying on x axis at a distance of 5 units to the right of x axis lying on y axis at a distance of 3 units below the orgin

Answers

Answer:

(5, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates are located on Cartesian planes (more like locating a point on a graph). Cartesian coordinates can be two dimensional or three dimensional in nature depending on the number of axis we are considering. For the question, the dimension of the required coordinate is 2-dimensional i.e (x,y).

On the Cartesian plane, we have the x axis along the horizontal plane and y axis along the vertical.

Note that positive values lies towards the right of the x-axis and also up the y-axis. The negative values lies towards the left of the x-axis and also down the y-axis.

According to the question, if a point is lying on x axis at a distance of 5 units to the right of x axis, then the value of x will be +5 i.e x = +5

Also, if a point lies on the y axis at a distance of 3 units below the origin, then the value of y will be -3 i.e y = -3.

Hence, the coordinates satisfying this points (x,y) is (5, -3)

Now that you know the total skid distance (3.8 ft), use the skid-distance formula to find how fast the car was going before it started skidding. How fast was the car traveling before it started skidding? s= sqrt (30 * drag factor * skid distance * braking efficiency)
s= speed
drag factor= 0.90
skid distance= 3.8
braking efficiency= 80% or 0.80

Answers

Answer:

  9.1 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the numbers in the formula and do the arithmetic.

  s = √(30×drag factor×skid distance×braking efficiency)

  s = √(30×0.90×3.8×0.80) = √82.08 ≈ 9.06

Answers

Answer:

11 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract 144-52= 92. After the initial fee, she has 92 dollars to spend on the car. Then, you divide 92 by 8 because it costs 8 dollars an hour. And this gets you 11.5 which you would have round down because she can't pay for the extra hour. She does not have enough money.

Given: XY - tangent to circles k1(P) and k2(O) OX=16, PY=6 and OP=26 Find: XY

Answers

Answer:

the answer is XY = 24 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

XY is tangent to the circles with center P and O respectively.

OX=16 units

PY=6 units

OP=26 units

To find:

Side XY = ?

Solution:

As per given statement, the diagram of two circles and their tangent is shown in the diagram.

We need to do one construction here,

Draw a line parallel to tangent XY from P towards OX such that it meets OX at A .

Now, let us consider triangle [tex]\triangle OAP[/tex]. It is a right angled triangle.

With sides Hypotenuse, OP = 26 units  

Perpendicular, OA = 16 -6  = 10 units

Base AP is equal to XY.

If we find the value of Base AP, the value of XY is calculated automatically.

Let us use pythagorean theorem in [tex]\triangle OAP[/tex]:

According to pythagorean theorem:

[tex]\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow OP^{2} = AP^{2} + OA^{2} \\\Rightarrow 26^2=XY^2+10^2\\\Rightarrow XY^2 = 676- 100\\\Rightarrow XY = \sqrt{576}\\\Rightarrow XY = 24\ units[/tex]

Hence, the answer is XY = 24 units.

Find the m∠CDE rjrsjrsrjr

Answers

Answer:

m∠CDE = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the arc at the center = 2 times the arc at the circumference, we have;

Angle at the center = arc CE = 120°

Whereby the angle at the circumference is given as m∠CDE and it is opposite the circle arc CE

We note that m∠CDE is the acute angle between chord DC and DE

Therefore, we have;

Angle at the center = 120° = 2 times the arc at the circumference = 2 × m∠CDE

120° = 2 × m∠CDE

m∠CDE = 120/2 = 60°

Therefore the angle of m∠CDE is equal to 60°.

in which table does y vary inversely with x?

Answers

Answer:

Table B

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for y to vary inversely as x, an increase in x will cause a decrease in y. Therefore, by careful observation of tables A, B, C, and D, we would notice the following:

In table C:

As x increases from 1 to 2 to 3, y also increases from 26 to 52 to 78. Which means that an increase in x causes an increase in y. This is not an inverse variation.

In table D:

As x increases from 1 to 2 to 3, y also increases from -7 to -1 to 6. Which means that an increase in x causes an increase in y. This is also not an inverse variation.

We are left with options A and B

If y varies inversely as x, the following relationship must hold:

[tex]y \alpha \frac{1}{x}\\y = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

Where k is a constant of proportionality

considering option B:

When x = 1, y = 36

36 = k/1

k = 36 * 1

k = 36

when x = 2, y = 36/2

y = 18

when x = 3, y = 36/3

y = 12

These tally with all that is indicated in the table. Option B is an inverse variation
