At a figure skating competition, the order of skaters is randomly selected. If
there are 20 skaters, what is the probability that Christie, Taylor, and Jona will
skate first, second, and third, respectively?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the permutations:

The arrangement of n things in an order = n!

If we fix that the first, second, and third person for skating, then we to arrange only 17 of the skaters.

Number of ways to arrange rest of 17 skaters = 17!

Number of ways that Christie, Taylor, and Jona will  skate first, second, and third, respectively = 1 x 17!=17!

Number of ways to arrange all 20 skaters = 20!

Now, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{\text{favourable outcomes}}{\text{total ways}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{17!}{20!}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{20\times19\times18}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

The figures below are based on semicircles or quarter circles and problems b), c), and d) are involving portions of a square. Need help quick Plz!!!

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the figure attached is the shape of a sector with an angle of 90° (quarter of a circle).

From the sector, AB = AC = radius of the sector (r) = 12. Therefore:

[tex]Area\ of\ sector=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2 = \frac{90}{360}*\pi * (12)^2 = 0.25 * \pi * 144=36\pi\\\\Area\ of\ triangle\ ABC=\frac{1}{2}*base *height= \frac{1}{2}*AB*BC=\frac{1}{2}*12*12=72\\\\Area \of\ shaded\ region = Area\ of\ sector-Area\ of\ triangle=36\pi-72\\\\Area \of\ shaded\ region =36\pi-72[/tex]

From the triangle: AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = 12² + 12² = 144 + 144

AC² = 288

AC=√288 = 12√2

[tex]Perimeter\ of\ sector=\frac{\theta}{360}*2\pi r = \frac{90}{360}*2\pi * (12) = 0.25 * 2\pi * 12=6\pi\\\\Perimeter \of\ shaded\ region = Perimeter\ of\ sector+AC=6\pi + 12\sqrt{2}[/tex]

£1 = 1.18 euros How many pounds will lisa have to exchange to get 300.90 euros. (please answer!)

Answers

Answer:

255 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion.

1 pound / 1.18 euros = x pounds / 300.9 euros

1.18 * x = 1 * 300.9

1.18x = 300.9

x = 255

255 pounds.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

300.90 € = £ 255

Step-by-step explanation:

£ 1 = 1.18 €

So,

1 € = £ 1/1.18

=> 1 € = £ 0.847

Multiplying both sides by 300.90 for getting the exchange rate of 300.90 euros

=> 300.90 € = £ 0.847 * 300.90

=> 300.90 € = £ 255

Kevin has $25 in his checking
account. If Kevin has $2.20
less than 4 times the amount
that Molly has in her
account, what is the
amount of money in
Molly's account?

Answers

Answer:

$6.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of money in Molly's amount

according to question,

4x-25=2.20

4x=2.20+25

4x=27.20

x=27.20/4

x=6.8

So,the amount of money in Molly's amont is $6.8

Answer: $6.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We will represent the amount of money that Molly has with a m. So it tells us the relationship between Kevin's amount and Molly's amount. It is says Kevin has 2.20 less that 4 times Molly's amount so we could represent it by the equation.

25 = 4m -2.20   solve for m.

+2.20     +2.20

27.20 = 4m

m= 6.8

4(6.8) = 27.20 - 25 = 2.20

The speed at which a ball bits the ground is proportional to the
height to which the ball rebounds. If the ball hits the ground at
a speed of 20 miles per hour and rebounds to a height of 10 feet,
then how fast must it be traveling (in miles per hour) to rebound
to a height of 15 feet?

Answers

Answer:

30 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

let s represent speed and h represent rebound.

Given that s is proportional to h then the equation relating them is

s = kh ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition s = 20, h = 10, then

20 = 10k ( divide both sides by 10 )

2 = k

s = 2h ← equation of proportionality

When h = 15 , then

s = 2 × 15 = 30 mph

It increases because, the greater the value of x the smaller the fraction is. If x was 25 the fraction would be 5/25 this makes the value of the equation 5.2. Now if x was a smaller positive number like 5. Then the fraction would be 5/5 which would cause the equation to be equal to 6.

Ms. delilio borrowed 1,200 from a bank for 3 months at 12% annual interest. How much interest did she pay?

Answers

Answer: $36

Step-by-step explanation:

When taking a loan from a bank, we have to pay interest. The Simple Interest Formula is:

Simple Interest (I) = Principal (P) × Interest Rate (r) × Time (t)

Principal (P) is the borrowed amount.

Interest Rate (r) is the percent of the principal to be paid.

Time (t) is the length of time that money is borrowed.

If Ms. Delilio borrowed $1,200 at an interest rate of 12% per year, for 3 months:

First, we have to convert 3 months into years

3 months = 3/12 =0.25 years

Then, find the interest by using the formula

Simple Interest (I) = Principal (P) × Interest Rate (r) × Time (t)

In this example

P = $1200

I = 12%

t = 0.25 years

Then:

I = 1200 × 0.12 × 0.25

I = 36

Answer:  $36

Step-by-step explanation:

3/12x1200x0.12=36

Determine the equation of the line that is parallel to y=23x+4 and passes through the point (3,7).

Answers

Answer:  y = 23x - 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

y = 23x + 4

  m=23   b=4

Input x = 3, y = 7, & m = 23 into the Point-Slope formula to find the equation or the Slope-Intercept formula to find b (you already have m).  I will choose the latter.

 y = mx + b

 7 = 23(3) + b

 7 = 69 + b

-62 = b

m = 23, b = -62  -->  y = 23x - 62

So to find the equations that have infinite solutions, we need to see which have the same exact sides.

[tex]37x-37 = 37x-37[/tex] have the same thing on each side: [tex]37x-37\\[/tex], so this has infinite solutions.

[tex]74x-37 = 74-37[/tex] does not have the same thing on each side, so it doesn’t have infinite solutions (it has 1)

[tex]73x-37 = 73x-37[/tex] has the same thing on each side: [tex]73x-37[/tex], so this has infinite solutions.

And finally, [tex]x-37=x-37[/tex] has the same thing on each side: [tex]x-37[/tex], so it has infinite solutions.

150°
O MMN - 150 = 180
OmMN – 150 = 360
a​

Answers

Answer:

mMN + 150 = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle O is shown. Line segment M P is a diameter. Line segment N O is a radius. Angle N O P is 150 degrees.

Given that:

NO is the radius and ∠NOP = 150°.

The angle addition postulate which states that a larger angle is formed when two smaller angles are placed side by side. If two angle x and y are small angles placed side by side, a big angle Z formed is given as:

z = x + y.

Therefore in circle O, using angle addition postulate:

mMN + ∠NOP = mMP

But mMP = 180° (angle on a straight line)

mMN +   ∠NOP = 180°

mMN + 150 = 180

Answers

Answer:

(x + 1)² + (y - 10)² = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of the equation of a circle is given by,

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) is the center of the circle and 'r' is the radius.

In the given question coordinates of the center A are (-1, 10) and radius of the circle is 2 units.

By substituting these values in the formula,

(x + 1)² + (y - 10)² = 2²

(x + 1)² + (y - 10)² = 4

Therefore, standard form of the equation of the given circle is (x + 1)² + (y - 10)² = 4

Which equation represents a line that has a slope of −2/3 and a y-intercept of 4?

Answers

Answer:

y = -2/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation that represents a line, the number with which no variable is multiplied is the y-intercept.

The number with which "x" is multiplied is the slope.

So in this case, the slope is -2/3; so the equation should be like -2/3x.

The y-intercept is 4, so it is the number with which no variable is multiplied.

So the equation is:

=> y = -2/3x + 4
