Step-by-step explanation:
the fair die has 6 equal parts which means its the total
the probability of rolling a 6 is 1/6
the probability of rolling another 6 is 1/6
so u multiply 1/6 times 1/6 which is 1/36
hope this helps
Hey there
To make it perfectly clear, consider the sample space for rolling a die twice. There are 36 equally likely possible outcomes, 6 of which define the event "rolling the same number two times in a row". Then, the probability of this event occurring is 636, which is equal to 16.Hope this hopeSam invest $4000 in an account that compounds interest continuously and earns 5.5% how long will it take for his money to reach $80,000 round to the nearest 10th of a year
Answer:
54.5 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we are asked to find the time
The formula for Time(t) =
t = log(A/P) / n[log(1 + r/n)]
A = Amount accumulated after a particular interest and period of time = $80,000
P = Principal (Money invested) = $4,000
r = rate = 5.5% = 0.055
n = compounding frequency = compounding continuously
n = number of days in a year × number of hours in a day
= 365 days × 24 hours = 8760
t = log(A/P) / n[log(1 + r/n)]
t = log(80,000/4,000) /8760[log(1 + 0.055/8760)]
t = log(80000 ÷ 4000) ÷ (8760 × [log(1 + 0.0000062785)]
t = 54.468367222 years
Approximately to the nearest tenth of a year, therefore, the length of time it will it take for his money to reach $80,000 is 54.5 years

An article in Fire Technology, 2014 (50.3) studied the effectiveness of sprinklers in fire control by the number of sprinklers that activate correctly. The researchers estimate the probability of a sprinkler to activate correctly to be 0.7. Suppose that you are an inspector hired to write a safety report for a large ballroom with 10 sprinklers. Assume the sprinklers activate correctly or not independently. (a) What is the probability that all of the sprinklers will operate correctly in a fire
Answer:
probability that all of the sprinklers will operate correctly in a fire: 0.0282
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question we will use Binomial probability distribution because:
In the question it is given that the sprinklers activate correctly or not independently. The number of outcomes are two i.e. sprinklers activate correctly or not.A binomial distribution is a probability of a success or failures outcomes in an repeated multiple or n times.
Number of outcomes of this distributions are two.
The formula is:
b(x; n, P) = [tex]C_{n,x}*p^{x} * (1 - p)^{n-x}[/tex]
b = binomial probability also represented as P(X=x)
x =no of successes
P = probability of a success on a single trial
n = no of trials
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is calculated as:
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] = n! / x!(n – x)!
= 10! / 10!(10-10)!
= 1
According to given question:
probability of success i.e. p = 0.7 i.e. probability of a sprinkler to activate correctly.
number of trials i.e. n = 10 as number of sprinklers are 10
To find: probability that all of the sprinklers will operate correctly in a fire
X = 10 because we have to find the probability that "all" of the sprinklers will operate correctly and there are 10 sprinklers so all 10 of them
So putting these into the formula:
P(X=x) = [tex]C_{n,x}*p^{x} * (1 - p)^{n-x}[/tex]
= C₁₀,₁₀ * 0.7¹⁰ * (1-0.7)¹⁰⁻¹⁰
= 1 * 0.0282 * (0.3) ⁰
= 1 * 0.0282 * 1
P(X=x) = 0.0282
One kind of candy (jelly) sells for $5 a pound and another (chocolate) for $10 a pound. How many pounds of each should be used to make a mixture of 10 pounds of candy (both kinds) that sells for a total $80 (i.e. $8/pound)?
Answer:
chocolate: 6 poundsjelly: 4 poundsStep-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of chocolate in the mix. Then the total price of 10 pounds of mix is ...
10x +5(10 -x) = 80
5x +50 = 80
5x = 30
x = 6 . . . . . . . . pounds of chocolate
10 -x = 4 . . . . . pounds of jelly candy
6 pounds of chocolate and 4 pounds of jelly should be used to make the mixture.
The amount of time to complete a physical activity in a PE class is approximately normally normally distributed with a mean of 32.9 seconds and a standard deviation of 6.4 seconds.
A) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in less than 33.2 seconds?
B) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in more than 46.6 seconds?
C) What proportion of students take between 35.5 and 42.8 seconds to complete the activity?
D) 75% of all students finish the activity in less than____seconds.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that mean (μ) of 32.9 seconds and a standard deviation (σ) of 6.4 seconds.
The z score is used to measure by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\[/tex]
a) For x < 33.2 seconds
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{33.2-32.9}{6.4} =0.05[/tex]
From the normal distribution table, the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in less than 33.2 seconds = P(x < 33.2) = P(z < 0.05) = 0.5199 = 51.99%
b) For x > 46.6 seconds
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{46.6-32.9}{6.4} =2.14[/tex]
From the normal distribution table, the probability that a randomly chosen student completes the activity in more than 46.6 seconds = P(x > 46.6) = P(z > 2.14) = 1 - P(z < 2.14) = 1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073 = 0.73%
c) For x = 35.5 seconds
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{35.5-32.9}{6.4} =0.41[/tex]
For x = 42.8 seconds
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{42.8-32.9}{6.4} =1.55[/tex]
From the normal distribution table, the proportion of students take between 35.5 and 42.8 seconds to complete the activity = P(35.5 < x < 42.8) = P(0.41< z< 1.55) = P(z < 1.55) - P(z < 0.41) = 0.9332 - 0.6591 = 0.2741 = 27.41%
d) A probability of 75% = 0.75 corresponds to a z score of 0.68
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\0.68=\frac{x-32.9}{6.4} \\\\x-32.9=4.4\\x=4.4+32.9\\x=37.3[/tex]
75% of all students finish the activity in less than 37.3 seconds
Find the measures of the angles in the figure.
Answer:
[tex]120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o[/tex]
which agrees with the first answer in the list of possible options.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the fact that the addition of all four internal angles of a quadrilateral must render [tex]360^o[/tex]. Then we can create the following equation and solve for the unknown "h":
[tex]2h+2h+h+h = 360^o\\6h=360^o\\h=60^o[/tex]
Therefore the angles of this quadrilateral are:
[tex]120^o,\,120^o,\,60^o,\,\,\,and\,\,\,60^o[/tex]
Answer:60,60,120,120
Step-by-step explanation:All qualdrilaterals equal to 360, so if you add all of the different numbers you should get 360
Find the difference of functions at x= - 3, (g - f)(-3), given f(x) and g(x): g(x) = x^2−15, and f(x) =2x
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
We are given two functions as follows:
[tex]f ( x ) = x^2 - 15\\\\g ( x ) = 2x[/tex]
We need to determine the composite function defined as ( g - f ) ( x ). To determine this function we need to make sure that both function exist for all real positive value of x.
The function f ( x ) is a quadratic function which has real values for all values of x. Similarly, function g ( x ) is a linear line that starts from the origin. Hence, both functions are defined over the domain ( -∞, ∞ )
We will perform arithmetic operation of subtracting function f ( x ) from g ( x ) as follows:
[tex][ g - f ] ( x ) = g ( x ) - f ( x )\\\\\\( g - f ) ( x ) = x^2 - 15 - 2x\\\\[/tex]
Now evaluate the above determined function at x = -3 as follows:
[tex]( g - f ) ( -3 ) = ( -3 )^2 - 2 ( -3 ) - 15\\\\( g - f ) ( -3 ) = 9 + 6 - 15\\\\( g - f ) ( -3 ) = 0[/tex]

In a soccer league, the ratio of boys to girls is 4 to 6. There are a total of 50 players in the soccer league. Determine how many girls play in the soccer league.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
We can call the number of boys 4x and girls 6x so we can write:
4x + 6x = 50
10x = 50
x = 5, therefore the number of girls is 6x = 6 * 5 = 30.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
In the ratio 4:6, we can think of this like 4 boys and 6 girls out of 10 team members.
We can find how many girls play by multiplying 6 by 5, since 50 divided by 10 is 5.
6(5) = 30, so 30 girls play in the soccer league.

Alex has built a garden shed in the shape shown.
(A) Alex plans to paint the outside of the shed, including the roof but not the floor. One can of paint can cover 6m^2 . How many cans of paint will Alex need.
(B)If one can of paint costs $25.50, what will the cost be including 13% tax.
Answer:
A) 22 cans required to paint
B) Including 13% tax, cost of painting = $633.93
Step-by-step explanation:
As we check the figure, we have a composite figure.
Cuboid on the base and a pyramid on the top of it.
To find the area to be painted, we have 4 rectangular faces of cuboid with dimensions 6m [tex]\times[/tex] 3m.
And 4 triangular faces of pyramid with Base = 6m and Height 5m.
So, total area to be painted = 4 rectangular faces + 4 triangular faces
Area of rectangle = Length [tex]\times[/tex] Width = 6 [tex]\times[/tex] 3 = 18 [tex]m^2[/tex]
Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times Base \times Height =\frac{1}{2}\times 6 \times 5 = 15\ m^{2}[/tex]
Total area to be painted = 4 \times 18 + 4 \times 15 = 72 + 60 = 132 [tex]m^2[/tex]
A) Area painted by 1 can = 6 [tex]m^2[/tex]
Cans required to paint 132 [tex]m^2[/tex] = [tex]\frac{132}{6} = 22\ cans[/tex]
B)
Cost of 1 can = $25.50
Cost of 22 can = $25.50 [tex]\times[/tex] 22 = $561
Including tax of 13% = $561 + $561 [tex]\times \frac{13}{100}[/tex] = $561 + $72.93 = $633.93
So, the answers are:
A) 22 cans required to paint
B) Including 13% tax, cost of painting = $633.93
Please help me. The function g(x) is a transformation of f(x). If g(x) has a y-intercept at 3, which of the following functions could represent g(x)?
The graph shows f(x) to have a y intercept at -1, which is where the diagonal line crosses the y axis. We want the y intercept to move to 3. So we must add 4 to the old y intercept to get the new y intercept.
We do this with every single point on f(x) to get g(x) = f(x)+4. This shifts the graph up 4 units.

The sum of Jason’s age and his brother’s age is 55. Jason is 7 years younger than his brother. How old is Jason?
Answer:
Jason is 24 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say that Jason's age is X, and his brother's age is Y.
We know that X + Y = 55.
We also know that (X + 7) = Y.
This means (X + 7) + Y = 62 (We got the 62 by adding 55 and 7)
Anyway if X+7= Y, and X+7 + Y = 62, then X+7 = 62/2, right?
We divide the 62 by 2 and we get 31.
Alright, so X+7 = 31.
substract both sides by 7.
We get X = 24

B. 1.753
C. 2.602
D. 3.747
E. 2.069
F. 2.453
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 95% confidence level, the level of significance = 5% or 0.05
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.05 significance level with 10 degrees of freedom = 1.182
B. 95% confidence interval = 0.05 level of significance
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.05 significance level with 15 degrees of freedom = 1.753
C. 99% confidence interval = 0.01 level of significance
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.01 significance level with 15 degrees of freedom = 2.602
D. 99% confidence interval = 0.01 level of significance; DF (n - 1) = 5- 1 = 4
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.01 significance level with 4 degrees of freedom = 3.747
E. 98% confidence interval = 0.02 level of significance
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.02 significance level with 23 degrees of freedom = 2.069
F. 99% confidence interval = 0.01 level of significance; df (n - 1) = 32 - 1 = 31
Using t-table, the critical value for a lower or an upper confidence bound at 0.01 significance level with 31 degrees of freedom = 2.453

Sanjay makes souvenir pyramids by pouring liquid into a pyramid-shaped mold. The mold he uses has a square base with a side length of 10\text{ cm}10 cm10, start text, space, c, m, end text, and the height of the mold is 10\text{ cm}10 cm10, start text, space, c, m, end text. Sanjay wants to make a smaller pyramid using the same mold, so he plans to fill the mold 2\text{ cm}2 cm2, start text, space, c, m, end text from the top. What is the approximate volume of this smaller pyramid?
Answer:
170.67

Answer:
171
Step-by-step explanation:
Modeling the situation
If we fill the pyramid mold 2\text{ cm}2 cm2, start text, space, c, m, end text from the top, we have a smaller pyramid that's similar to the original pyramid.
Since the pyramids are similar, we can set up a proportional equation to find the side lengths and height of the smaller pyramid, and then find its volume.
Hint #22 / 4
Base and height of smaller pyramid
The height of the smaller pyramid is 10-2=8\text{ cm}10−2=8 cm10, minus, 2, equals, 8, start text, space, c, m, end text.
We can solve for the length \blueE{\ell}ℓstart color #0c7f99, ell, end color #0c7f99 in the smaller pyramid using a proportional equation.
\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\blueE{\ell}}{10} &= \dfrac{8}{10} \\\\ \blueE{\ell} &= \blueE{8} \end{aligned}

Hint #33 / 4
Volume of smaller pyramid
\begin{aligned} \text{volume}_{\text{pyramid}} &= \dfrac13(\text{base area})(\text{height}) \\\\ &= \dfrac13 \cdot (\blueE{\ell})^2\cdot (\text{height}) \\\\ &= \dfrac13 \cdot \blueE{8}^2\cdot(8)\\\\ &= \dfrac{512}{3}=170.\overline{6}\\\\ &\approx \purpleD{170.67} \end{aligned}
