Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = expected outcome of event/total outcome of event

Given the total amount of chocolate in a box = 39chocolates

Amount of nuts = 16

Mount of caramel = 13

Amount of solid chocolate = 10

If he randomly selects a nut chocolate and eat, the probability of selecting a nut chocolate = Amount of nuts/total chocolate in the box = 16/39

IF he selects a seconnd piece (caramel chocolate) and eat, the probability of selecting a caramel chocolate = Amount of caramel/total chocolate in the box = 13/39 = 1/3

The probability of selecting a nut chocolate followed by a caramel chocolate will be 16/39*1/3 = 16/117

Answer:

a) CD = 41 m

b) 77.32°

c) 1380 square metres

Step-by-step explanation:

We can divide the trapezium as shown in the diagram below.

a) To find CD, we use Pythagoras Rule:

[tex]CD^2 = 9^2 + 40^2[/tex]

[tex]CD^2 = 81 + 1600\\\\CD^2 = 1681\\\\=> CD = 41 m[/tex]

b) To find <BCD, we use trigonometric function SOHCAHTOA:

sin(BCD) = opp / hyp

sin(BCD) = 40 / 41

sin(BCD) = 0.9756

=> <BCD = 77.32°

c) The area of a trapezium is given as:

A = 1/2 (a + b) * h

where h = height = 40 m

a = top length = 30 m

b = bottom length = 39 m

A = 1/2 * (30 + 39) * 40

A = 1/2 * 69 * 40

A = 1380 square metres

Answer:

[tex] x = 6.6 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ∆WXY,

<X = 15°

<Y = 23°

y = 10

x = ?

To find side x, use the Law of sines as shown below:

[tex] \frac{x}{sin X} = \frac{y}{sin Y} [/tex]

Plug in the values of y, Y, and X

[tex] \frac{x}{sin 15} = \frac{10}{sin 23} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{0.2588} = \frac{10}{0.3907} [/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex] x*0.3907 = 10*0.2588 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.3907 to solve for x

[tex] \frac{x*0.3907}{0.3907} = \frac{10*0.2588}{0.3907} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{2.588}{0.3907} [/tex]

[tex] x = 6.624 [/tex]

[tex] x = 6.6 [/tex] (to nearest tenth)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total number of games played by the softball team = 18 games

Total games won = 15 games

Ratio of the softball team's wins to its total number of games played can be gotten by simply dividing the total games won by the total games played

Ratio = [tex]\frac{total \ teams's win}{total\ number\ of \ games\ played}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = \frac{15}{18}[/tex]

Expressing the ratio in its lowest term

[tex]Ratio = \frac{3*5}{3*6} \\\\Ratio = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of the softball team's wins to its total number of games played is 5:6

Answer:

[tex]d + q = 20[/tex]

[tex]0.25d + 0.10q = 3.05[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Coins = 20

Value = $3.05

Required

Determine the equation that represent this

From the question, we have that

d = the number of dimes

q = the number of quarters

This implies that;

[tex]d + q = 20[/tex]

Also;

[tex]1 d=\$0.25\ \ and\ \\1 q= \$0.10[/tex]---------- Standard unit of conversion;

This implies that

[tex]0.25d + 0.10q = 3.05[/tex]

Hence, the equations are:

[tex]d + q = 20[/tex]

[tex]0.25d + 0.10q = 3.05[/tex]

Answer:

6√5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the expression [tex]\sqrt{180}[/tex]

Break 180 into its factors which are in the perfect square form.

Since, 180 = 9 × 4 × 5

                 = 3² × 2² × 5

Therefore, [tex]\sqrt{180}=\sqrt{3^{2}\times 2^{2}\times 5}[/tex]

                           = [tex]\sqrt{3^2}\times \sqrt{2^{2}}\times \sqrt{5}[/tex] [Since [tex]\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\times \sqrt{b}[/tex]]

                           = 3 × 2 × √5

                           = 6√5

Therefore, solution of the given square root will be 6√5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

One third of solution is acid

Amount of acid = 5 Liter

Find:

Amount of solution

Computation:

Amount of solution = Amount of acid (1 / One third of solution is acid)

Amount of solution = Amount of acid (3)

Amount of solution = (5)(3)

Amount of solution = 15 liter

Answer:

148 cm ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well is the area of the base is 30 then we can conclude that the side lengths are 5 and 6.

Then if the volume is 120 we can do,

120 ÷ 30 = 4

So the height is 4 cm.

Now we already have the area of the base we just need to find the area of the rest of the rectangles.

If the bottom base is 30 then the top base is also 30.

30 + 30 = 60cm^2

Now we can do the two rectangles on the side that have side lengths of 5 and 4.

5*4 = 20

20+20 = 40 cm^2

Now we can do the two final rectangles that have side lengths of 6 and 4.

6*4=24

24 + 24 = 48 cm^2

Now we can add all the areas up,

48 + 40 + 60

= 148 cm^2

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

[tex]Probability = 51\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Radius of inner circle = 5ft

Radius of outer circle = 7ft

Required

Determine the probability that the thumbtack will be placed on the inner circle

We start by calculating the area of both circles;

Inner Circle

[tex]Area = \pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 3.14 * 5^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 3.14 * 25[/tex]

[tex]Area = 78.5[/tex]

Outer Circle

[tex]Area = \pi R^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 3.14 * 7^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 3.14 * 49[/tex]

[tex]Area = 153.86[/tex]

At this point, the probability can be calculated;

The probability = Area of Inner Circle / Area of Outer Circle

[tex]Probability = \frac{78.5}{153.86}[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.51020408163[/tex]

Convert to percentage

[tex]Probability = 0.51020408163 * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 51.020408163\%[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Probability = 51\%[/tex]

Answer:

All numbers greater than 5, i.e., [tex]x>5[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is  

[tex]80x>150+50x[/tex]

Isolate variable terms on one side to find the solution.

Subtract  50x from both sides.

[tex]80x-50x>150+50x-50x[/tex]

[tex]30x>150[/tex]

Divide both sides by 30.

[tex]\dfrac{30x}{30}>\dfrac{150}{30}[/tex]

[tex]x>5[/tex]

It means, all the numbers which are greater than 5, are the solutions of the given inequality and 5 is not included in the solution set.

Answer:

55°

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding image, which I will attach, is missing in order to solve the exercise.

We know that the flat angle is 180 °, which we know to be the one that is formed with the horizontal, therefore the following equation remains:

55 ° + (70 ° + x °) = 180 °

we solve x °

x ° = 180 ° - 55 ° - 70 °

x ° = 55 °

So the value of x is 55 °

If Amir is not courageous, then he will not join the indian army.

Answer:

Ok, i cant drag the endpoints of the segment, but i can tell you how to do it.

First, we know that h(x) joins the points (1, -5) and (9, 1), then h(x) is a line:

h(x) = s*x + b

First, for a line that goes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope will be:

s = (y2 -y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then in this case, the slope is:

s = (1 - (-5))/(9 - 1) = 0.75

Then we have

h(x) = 0.75*x + b

now, the value of b can be found as:

h(1) = -5 = 0.75*1 - b

b = - 5 - 0.75 = -5.75.

Then our equation is:

h(x) = 0.75*x - 5.75

Now, i gues you want to find the graph of:

y = h(-x)

Then our new function is:

g(x) = h(-x) =  -0.75*x - 5.75.

Now to find the points, we evaluate this function in the same values of x as before.

g(1) = -0.75*1 - 5,75 = -6,5

the point is (1, -6.5)

the second point is when x = 9.

g(9) = -0.75*9 - 5.75 = -12.5

The second point is (9, -12.5)

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4+(3/4*2)=3/4+6/4=9/4=2 1/4

2 1/4+6=8 1/4=8.25

Answer: 8.25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first term is [tex]a[/tex], then the second term is [tex]ar[/tex], the third is [tex]ar^2[/tex], the fourth is [tex]ar^3[/tex], and the fifth is [tex]ar^4[/tex].

We're given

[tex]\begin{cases}ar=6\\ar^4=48\end{cases}\implies\dfrac{ar^4}{ar}=r^3=8\implies r=2\implies a=3[/tex]

So the first five terms in the GP are

3, 6, 12, 24, 48

Adding up the first four gives a sum of 45.

If you were asked to find the sum of many, many more terms, having a formula for the n-th partial sum would convenient. Let [tex]S_n[/tex] denote the sum of the first n terms in the GP:

[tex]S_n=3+3\cdot2+3\cdot2^2+\cdots+3\cdot2^{n-2}+3\cdot2^{n-1}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2:

[tex]2S_n=3\cdot2+3\cdot2^2+3\cdot2^3+\cdots+3\cdot2^{n-1}+3\cdot2^n[/tex]

Subtract this from [tex]S_n[/tex], which eliminates all the middle terms:

[tex]S_n-2S_n=3-3\cdot2^n\implies -S_n=3(1-2^n)\implies S_n=3(2^n-1)[/tex]

Then the sum of the first four terms is again [tex]S_4=3(2^4-1)=45[/tex].

Answer:

53.076923

Step-by-step explanation:

130% as a decimal is 1.3

Divide 69 by 1.3:

69 /1.3 = 53.076923

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

The unknown number is x.

Start with x.

To increase x by 130%, you need to add 130%of x to x.

x + 130% of x

The sum equals 69.

x + 130% of x = 69

x + 130% * x = 69

1x + 1.3x = 69

2.3x = 69

x = 30

Answer: The number is 30.

Answer: Graph is shown in the attached image below

This is a V shaped graph with the vertex at (3,0). The V opens upward

Explanation:

The equation y = |x-3| is the result of shifting the parent function y = |x| three units to the right. The vertex moves from (0,0) to (3,0). The "x-3" portion moves the xy axis three units to the left. If we held the V shape in place while the xy axis moved like this, then it gives the illusion the V shape moved 3 spots to the right.

Side note: the equation y = |x-3| is composed of two linear functions y = x-3 and y = -x+3. The value of x will determine which gets graphed. When x < 3, then we'll graph y = -x+3; otherwise we graph y = x-3. This is known as a piecewise function.

Answer:

The best fit is A. Linear model

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Monthly Rate = $20, Number of customers = 5000

If there is a decrease of $1 in the monthly rate, the number of customers increase by 500.

To find:

The type of model that best fits the given situation?

Solution:

Monthly Rate = $20, Number of customers = 5000

Let us decrease the monthly rate by $1.

Monthly Rate = $20 - $1  = $19, Number of customers = 5000 + 500 = 5500

Let us decrease the monthly rate by $1 more.

Monthly Rate = $19 - $1  = $18, Number of customers = 5500 + 500 = 6000

Here, we can see that there is a linear change in the number of customers whenever there is decrease in the monthly rate.

We have 2 pair of values here,

x = 20, y = 5000

x = 19, y = 5500

Let us write the equation in slope intercept form:

[tex]y =mx+c[/tex]

Slope of a function:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{5500-5000}{19-20}\\\Rightarrow -500[/tex]

So, the equation is:

[tex]y =-500x+c[/tex]

Putting x = 20, y = 5000:

[tex]5000 =-500\times 20+c\\\Rightarrow c = 5000 +10000 = 15000[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \bold{y =-500x+15000}[/tex]

Let us check whether (18, 6000) satisfies it.

Putting x = 18:

[tex]-500 \times 18 +15000 = -9000+15000 = 6000[/tex] so, it is true.

So, the answer is:

The best fit is A. Linear model

Answer:

$20, 533.33

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given the following values

Principal = $20000

Rate = 8% = 0.08

Time( in years) = 120days = 4 months = 4/12 years = 1/3 years

Interest = Principal × Rate × Time

Interest = 20,000 × 0.08× (1/4)

Interest = $533.33

Hence, the proceeds to Aster Corporation are

$20000 + $533.33

= $20,533.33

Answer:

The correct option is;

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of x^k·y^(n-k) is nk,   False

The kth coefficient of the binomial expansion, (x + y)ⁿ is  [tex]\dbinom{n}{k} = \dfrac{n!}{k!\cdot (n-k)!} = C(n,k)[/tex]

Where;

k = r - 1

r = The term in the series

For an example the expansion of (x + y)⁵, we have;

(x + y)⁵ = x⁵ + 5·x⁴·y + 10·x³·y² + 10·x²·y³ + 5·x·y⁴ + y⁵

The third term, (k = 3) coefficient is 10 while n×k = 3×5 = 15

Therefore, the coefficient of x^k·y^(n-k) for the expansion  (x + y)ⁿ = [tex]C(n,k)[/tex] not nk
