You ask 8 students how many letters are in their first name. One person says 6. The other 7 students say a different number of letters. Find the experimental probability of someone having 6 letters in their name based on this experiment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since only one out of eight said they had six letters

P(6)=1/8

Answer 2

The experimental probability of someone having [tex]6[/tex] letters in their name based on this experiment  is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] .

What is experimental probability ?

Experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of outcomes in which a specified event occurs to the total number of trials, not in a theoretical sample space but in an actual experiment.

[tex]Experimental \ probability = \frac{Total \ number \ of \ outcomes}{Number \ of \ favorable \ outcomes}[/tex]

We have,

Total number of students [tex]=8[/tex]

Person ​having [tex]6[/tex] letters in the name [tex]=1[/tex]

Other [tex]7[/tex] person says different number of letters.

So,

Experimental probability of someone having [tex]6[/tex] letters in their name is determined ;

[tex]Experimental \ probability = \frac{Total \ number \ of \ outcomes}{Number \ of \ favorable \ outcomes}[/tex]

                                         [tex]=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

So, Experimental probability of someone having [tex]6[/tex] letters in their name is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] , which is determined using the above given formula.

Hence, we can say that the experimental probability of someone having [tex]6[/tex] letters in their name based on this experiment  is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] .

Suppose the two line segments in a coordinate plane one with a length of 120 units and other with a length of 240 units were both rotated 90 degrees about the origin and then translated 50 units up one of the resulting segments could have a length of...Units.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Line\ 1 = 120\ units[/tex]

[tex]Line\ 2 = 240\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Line\ 1 = 120\ units[/tex]

[tex]Line\ 2 = 240\ units[/tex]

Transformation

Rotation: 90 degrees

Translation: 50 units up

Required

The new length of one of the lines

Since no options were given, I will solve for the lengths of the two lines

From the question, the transformations are rotation and translation. These two types of translation do not alter the length or angle of a shape.

This implies that both lines will still retain their original lengths.

So. we can conclude that, after the transformation

[tex]Line\ 1 = 120\ units[/tex]

[tex]Line\ 2 = 240\ units[/tex]

Angharad is buying a new 40-inch screen TV (remember that TV screens are measured along the diagonal )

a)If it is 20 inches tall, how wide is the screen ?

b)Her TV cabinet is 30 inches wide .will the TV fit inside it ?

Answers

Answer:

a) 34.64 inches

b) The TV will not fit inside the TV cabinet

Step-by-step explanation:

Angharad is buying a new 40-inch screen TV (remember that TV screens are measured along the diagonal )

a)If it is 20 inches tall, how wide is the screen ?

We solve using the formula:

Diagonal ² = Width² + Height²

Diagonal = 40 inches

Height = 20 inches

40² = Width² + 20²

Width² = 40² - 20²

Width = √40² - 20²

Width = √(1200)

Width = 34.641016151 inches

Approximately = 34.64 inches

b)Her TV cabinet is 30 inches wide .will the TV fit inside it ?

From the above calculation, the width of the TV = 34.64 inches

Hence the width of the cabinet has to be equal to or more than 34.64 inches

Hence, The TV will not fit inside the TV cabinet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can only find the range of the values of x by using triangle inequality,

[tex]x + 1 + x > 3x + 10 \\ \\ 1 - 10 > 3x - 2x \\ \\ - 9 > x[/tex]

Multiply through both sides by -1, we get,

This means x = -10, -11, ... (which is not realistic because a side of a triangle cannot be a negative number)

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

first we will distribute out everything

-2x +5 +4x+ 9 = 3(6 +4x)- 12x

(multiply 3 to both 6 and 4x)  

-2x +5 +4x+ 9= 18 +12x -12x

then combine like variables on both sides

(add -2x and 4x and add 5 and 9, for the other side add 12x and -12x)

2x+14= 18  

then isolate x

2x=4

x=2

and substitute x for 2 to double check

-2(2)+5+4(2)+9=3(6+4(2))-12(2)

18=18

therefore 2 is correct

The length of the diagonal is  

12500

, which is 111.80 yards.

The possible dimensions of the sports field are width 70 yards, length 7-3x yards.

What are dimensions?

Dimensions in mathematics are the measure of the size or distance of an object or region or space in one direction.

Given that, the width is at least 50 yards and area is (490-210x)

We can conclude the shape of the sports field is rectangular.

We need to find the Greatest Common factor between 490 and 210, this way:

490 = 2 × 5 × 7 × 7

210 = 2 × 5 × 3 × 7

Then the greatest common factor is 2 × 5 × 7 = 70

This GCF is also equal to 70 yards (given in option), therefore it's one of the dimensions of the sports field.

Now, we calculate the other side of the sports, this way:

Second dimension of the sports field = (490-210x)/70

= 7-3x

Hence, The possible dimensions of the sports field are width 70 yards, length 7-3x yards.

Answers

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Before starting this question, you need to know that the total degree of any given triangle is 180 degrees.

Now looking at the question, we know one side is 90 degree since it is a right triangle.

180-90=90

This let us know that the remaining two angles will have to add up to equal to 90 degrees.

2x+1+5x+5=90

First, combine like terms.

7x+6=90

Now we have to get x by itself, subtract 6 on both sides then divide by 7.

7x=84

x=12

What is the area *,*:.:*.* I know it alot of reading but can you help me with this?? *,*:.:*.*You cant really see the bolts when youre on the ground, which isnt surprising if you consider how far up I amat least half way, meaning roughly five meters. What is that in feet? Unfortunately, I cant ask Ms. Snyder, since shes roughly five meters down and about 30 feet away. Im not sure how many meters there are in 30 feet, but I can estimate: If Im five meters up, then shes got to be about twice as many meters away, which means its about 10 meters. Anyhow, there she is, about five meters down and 30 feet away, buying an orange cream ice pop, and if I could remember that theorem named after the Greek guy, I could probably calculate exactly how far away Ms. Snyder and her orange cream ice pops are.Man, I should pay more attention in Ms. Snyders geometry class. Then Id know how far away she is as the crow flies, like people say. Do crows really always fly directly? If I were a crow, Id fly directly toward Ms. Snyder and grab her orange cream ice pop; although, in that case, maybe Id better be a magpie, seeing as how they steal things. Anyhow, you cant see the bolts in this diving platform from the ground, which is good if your objective is to get more people to scale this crazy tower because those bolts are pockmarked and look wounded, like theyre bleeding rust, which doesnt inspire copious amounts of confidence. I cant see Ms. Snyder anymore because weve rounded the central column of the platform, and now all I see are the feet of the people above me on the stairs. Its like theyre inching along a malfunctioning assembly line thats churning out mismatched pairs of feet: here comes a pair with mauve nail polish on the toes, and now a couple with aqua socks, now some with hairy toes, now an ankle with a tattoo, now a bandaged heel. Ill bet you one orange cream ice pop that bandage comes off upon impact with the water.Honestly, why do places always seem higher when youre looking down from them than when youre looking up at them? I cant turn around now, though, because if I did, Id force 25 people to go down with me. I mean, I could try to just squeeze past them, but the stairway is too narrow for that, and Id likely send several of them plunging into the roiling abyss. Right now I can see a boy who looks like hes about 10, with spindly legs like a colts, whom Id almost certainly take out, which would be horribleand embarrassing. Who are all of these people who want to leap off of a 10-meter diving board, anyway, and whats wrong with them? Dont they know how far 10 meters is? Its like 30 feet or something! What did they do, just start indiscriminately following each other? Youre in the wrong line, lemmings! The line for the orange cream ice pops is over there; just follow the hypotenuse from me to Ms. Snyder.Ive come to the final step, but I still havent reached the boardthe three people ahead of me are waiting to make their final ascent up a stainless steel ladder, which is covered in little rust freckles. Apparently, youve got to walk the lonesome diving board by yourself. Nobody here can traverse it for you. I just heard the elastic, reverberating clack of the board and got a partial view of someone hurtling toward the water, and although I couldnt tell exactly, since he was sort of a blur, I think it was the guy with the bandage, which is a pity. I guess I wont be able to cash in on my orange cream ice pop bet.Things are moving a little faster than Id like at the moment. Doesnt anyone want to stop and enjoy the view? No?
