In a fiftness class, there was a warm up of 14 press-ups. Anyone unable to do 14 or more recives a punishment. Jessica can do 10 press-ups without ever failing, however, the chances of her successfully doing each subsequent press-up halves. Whats the probality of her receiving a punishment? A. 1 in 8 B. 1 in 1024 C. 15 in 16 D. 1023 in 1024

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

C. 15 in 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The number of press-ups required = 14 press-ups

The number of press-ups Jessica is sure to do = 10 press-ups

The chance of Jessica doing subsequent press-ups after 10 halves each time

The consequence of not completing the 14 press-ups =  Punishment

The probability that Jessica does goes on to do 11 press-ups = 1/2

The probability that Jessica does goes on to do 12 press-ups = 1/2×1/2

The probability that Jessica does goes on to do 13 press-ups = 1/2×1/2×1/2

The probability that Jessica does goes on to do (completes) 14 press-ups = 1/2×1/2×1/2×1/2 = 1/16

Therefore;

Since the probability that Jessica does not receive a punishment because she completed the 14 push-ups is 1/16, we have;

The probability that Jessica does not complete the 14 press-ups and receives a punishment = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16 which is 15 times out of 16 or 15 in 16.

Activity: A flagpole has cracked 1.7 m from the ground and fallen over, as if hinged. The top of the flagpole hit the ground 3 m from the base. How tall was the flagpole before it fell?

Answers

Answer:

Height of flagpole before it fell = 5.15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of remain pole (p) = 1.7 m

Distance from base (b) = 3 m

Find:

Height of flagpole before it fell

Computation:

Using Pythagorean theorem

H = √ p² + b

Length of broken part = √ 1.7² + 3²

Length of broken part = √ 2.89 + 9

Length of broken part = √ 11.89

Length of broken part = 3.45 (Approx)

Height of flagpole before it fell = Length of broken part + Height of remain pole

Height of flagpole before it fell = 3.45 + 1.7

Height of flagpole before it fell = 5.15 m

Veronica wants to check her work after evaluating Negative 108 divided by (negative 6). What steps can she follow to verify her answer?

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Write the fraction given

              [tex]\frac{-108}{-6}[/tex]

2.- Divide the numbers as usual

               18

         6  108

               48

                 0

3.- Divide the signs

      negative / negative = positive

4.- Write the answer

        [tex]\frac{-108}{-6}= 18[/tex]

5.- Check the result

Multiply 18 by -6 and the result must be -108

       -6 x 18 = 108

We know a negative times a negative is equal to a positive.

- 108 / - 6      is the same as 108 / 6     because the larger number is on top.

Therefore she can drop the negative signs and solve 108/6 to verify her answer.

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle, the altitude is the median so the altitude splits the base into two segments with lengths of 5. We notice that x is part of a right triangle with legs of 5 and 12, therefore, using the 5 - 12 - 13 Pythagorean Triple, x = 13.

Answer:

(B) 13

Step-by-step explanation:

This isosceles triangle is broken up into two parts, both are right triangles.

To find the length of a missing side in a right triangle, we use the Pythagorean Theorem - [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]. where one of the legs is a, the other leg is b, and the hypotenuse is c.

We know that one of the legs is 12, and since the base of the triangle is 10, the leg of one of the right triangles is 5.

Let's solve.

[tex]5^2+12^2=c^2\\25+144=c^2\\169=c^2\\\\\sqrt{169} =c\\13=c[/tex]

So, c is 13, therefore the hypotenuse is 13, therefore x is 13.

(c) How many extra workers to be employed ?

Answers

Answer:

ii) £120

iii) £2,400

a) 10 workers

c) 4 workers more to be employed.

Step-by-step explanation:

ii) To find the buying price we deduct 20% (percent) from the selling price of £150.

= 20/100 x 150

= £30 (Next we substract this value from the selling price of £150) = €150 - £30 = £120

iii) A 12% interest per annum Implies a 12 percent of the borrowed amount of 20,000, which is calculated as

12% or 12/100 x 20,000 = £2,400

a) Put simply, we create an equation for the problem.

4 men * 10 days = 40 man days.

X men * 4 days = 40 man days.

Let's substitute the equation:

(X/ 4) * (4/ 10) = 40 / 40

(X/4) * 0.4= 1 (collect like terms)

0.4 * x = 4

0.4x/0.4= 4/0.4

x = 10 workers.

This has to do with function transformations. First we can set it up differently, where we are solving for y instead of f(x)
y=f(x)+8
The points of the graph are (x, f(x)+8)
To move the graph to the right, we need to subtract by 2 within the parentheses
y=f(x-2)+8
Now the point would be like (x, f(x-2)+8)

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{f(x - 2) = x + 6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) + n - shift the graph n units up

f(x) - n - shift the graph n units down

f(x + n) - shift the graph n units to the left

f(x - n) - shift the graph n units to the right

===========================================

f(x) = x + 8

shift the graph 2 units to the right

f(x - 2) = (x - 2) + 8 = x - 2 + 8 = x + 6

Answers

Answer:

Correct option: first one

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation f(x) = 5x + 1 is a function, because each value of x gives only one  value of y.

Now let's find the inverse by switching f(x) by x and x by f'(x), then isolating f'(x):

[tex]x = 5f'(x) + 1[/tex]

[tex]5f'(x) = x - 1[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{x - 1}{5}[/tex]

The inverse f'(x) is also a function, because each value of x gives only one value of x.

So we have that both the equation and its inverse are function, therefore the correct answer is the first option.

Answers

Answer:

1).

A. Reflection across the y axis.

2).

A. Clockwise rotation about point B and a translation 20 units down.

The sequence of transformation that can be performed on quadrilateral

ABCD to show that is congruent to GHIJ is a B. 90 degree counter

clockwise rotation about point A  followed by a B. Reflection across the y-

axis and a translation 20 units down

Reasons:

Rotation 90° counterclockwise about the point A

The coordinates of the point (x, y) following a rotation of 90°

counterclockwise is the point (-y, x)

Taking point A as the origin

The coordinates of point A = (15, 10)

Coordinates of the points B, relative to the point A = (0, 10)

Coordinates of the points C, relative to the point A = (5, 5)

Coordinates of the points D, relative to the point A = (5, -5)

The location of the image of point B, following a rotation about the point A, is therefore;

B'(-10 + 15, 0 + 10) = B'(5, 10), C'(-5 + 15, 5 + 10) = C'(10, 15), D'(5 + 15, 5 + 10) = D'(20, 15)

Reflection across the y-axis

The coordinates of the image of the point (x, y), following a reflection

across the y-axis is the point (-x, y). The coordinates of the parallelogram

A'B'C'D' following a reflection across the y-axis are the point B''(-5, 10),

C''(-10, 15), D''(-20, 15) A''(-15, 10). The coordinates of the quadrilateral GHIJ

are; G(-15, -10), H(-5, -10), I(-10 - 5), J(-20, -5)

Translation 20 units down

The x-coordinates of the quadrilaterals A''B''C''D'', and GHIJ are the same,

therefore, we translate A''B''C''D'', 20 units down to get;

B'''(-5, -10), C'''(-10, -5), D'''(-20, -5) A'''(-15, -10)

Coordinates of A'''(-15, -10) = G(-15, -10)

Coordinates of B'''(-5, -10) = H(-5, -10)

Coordinates of C'''(-10, -5) = I(-10 - 5)

Coordinates of D'''(-20, -5) = J(-20, -5)

Therefore;

The sequence of transformation that can be performed on quadrilateral

ABCD to show that is congruent to GHIJ is a;

B. 90 degree counter clockwise rotation about point A

Followed by a;

B. Reflection across the y-axis and a translation 20 units down

If it rains, I do not go sailing. It rains 10 % 10\% 10% of days; I go sailing 3 % 3\% 3% of days. If it does not rain, what is the (conditional) probability that I go sailing? Written "p(I go sailing | it does not rain)''

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A =" I go sailing" and B = "it does not rain"

P(A) = 0.03

P(B) =0.90

Since I never go sailing when it rains, P(A and B) =0.03.

Therefore, the (conditional) probability that I go sailing, given that it does not rain is:

[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\ and\ B)}{P(B)} \\P(A|B)=\frac{0.03}{0.90}=0.033333[/tex]

The perimeter of a rectangle is 60 cm. The ratio of length to width is 3:2. Find the length and width of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: L = 18 and W = 12

Explanation:

Find the semi rectangle:

60/2 = 30

Now we can find the length and width using the semi rectangle:

L = 30 x 3/5 = 18

W = 30 x 2/5 = 12

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter = 2*length + 2 * width.

As the ratio is 3:2 the fraction 3 / (3 +2)  is used to find the length:

The measure of the 2 lengths = 3/ (3+2)  * 60

= 3/5 * 60

= 36 cm

So the measure of the length = 18 cm

So the measure of  the width = (60 - 36) / 2

= 24/2

= 12 cm.
