Find the value of a. Enter a numeric answer only.

The probability that they pick the same number is 1/8.

What is probability?

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

As given two students each use a random number generator to pick an integer between 1 and 8 inclusive.

So, the possible choices are,

8 - 1 + 1 = 8  Possible choices: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

So, the probability is, 1/8.

Therefore, the probability that they pick the same number is 1/8.

The possibility of an event or outcome happening contingent on the occurrence of a prior event or outcome is known as conditional probability. The probability of the prior event is multiplied by the current likelihood of the subsequent, or conditional.

Occurrence to determine the conditional probability. P(A and B) = P(A) * P if A and B are two Independent events (B).

How can you calculate the likelihood of two occurrences, A and B, coming together?

The probability of their union, or the event that either A or B occurs, is equal to the total of their probabilities less the sum of their intersection if two occurrences A and B are not disjoint. P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) (A and B).

The answer is then (0.28 + P(B) - (0.51 = 0.23).

Option D is correct.

Midpoint = (2, 1)

Explanation

The midpoint of two coordinates is obtained by respective x-coordinates together and dividing by 2 and then doing similarly for the y-coordinate.

(-4, -8) and (8, 10)

Midpoint = (x, y)

x = (-4 + 8)/2 = (4/2) = 2

y = (-8 + 10)/2 = (2/2) = 1

Using the concept of area, we got 165 bags is the smallest number of bags there groundskeeper must buy to cover the circular field.

The branch of mathematics which deals with measuring is known as Mensuration. It was basically first used for land surveys and other civic works in  Egypt. The father of mensuration is known as Archimedes. Mensuration is a discipline of mathematics which studies the measurements of various geometrical forms  possible and their areas, perimeters, and volumes, among other things.

Diameter of the field = 290 feet, radius = 145 feet

Area of the circular field =[tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

=>[tex]\pi[/tex]×145×145 =66018.5 square feet.

No of bags to be brought = 66018.5/400=165bags,

Hence, the smallest number of bags is 165 which groundskeeper must buy to cover the circular field.

The exponential equation that represents the table is given as y = 81(3)^x.

Exponent-based equations in which the exponent or a portion of the exponent is a variable are known as exponential equations.

The standard exponential form is expressed according to the formula;

y= ab^x

Using the coordinate points (2, 9) and (3, 3) from the table, we can create simultaneous equation as shown;

9 = ab^2

3 = ab^3

Divide both equations

3/9 = ab^3/ab^2

1/3 = b^3/b^2

1/3 = b

Substitute b = 1/3 into any of the equations

3 = ab^3

3 = a(1/3)^3

3 = 1/27 a

a = 81

Determine the required equation

y = ab^x

y = 81(3)^x

This gives the required equation of the function.

The distance between the two cities on the map is 0.45 inches , the correct  option is (A) 0.45inches  .

In the question ,
it is given that

the scale factor of the  map is 25 miles = 0.1 inches

So, 1 mile = 0.1/25 inches

= 0.004 inches

So , on the map 1 mile is represented by 0.004 inches

Given that the real distance between the two cities is 112.5 miles

So , on the map  112.5 miles = 112.5*0.004 inches

= 0.45 inches

Therefore , the distance between the two cities on the map is 0.45 inches , the correct  option is (A)0.45inches  .

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of  -1 (3/4) and 2 (1/2) is the same as the difference between 2 (1/2) and 1 (3/4).

Firstly, we will convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.

-1 and 3/4 = -7/4

2 and 1/2 = 5/2

Addition of -1 (3/4) and 2 (1/2) = -7/4 + 5/2 = -7/4 + 10/4 = 3/4

Difference between  2 and 1/2 and 1 and 3/4 = 5/2 - 7/4 = 10/4 - 7/4 = 3/4

As both the values equal to 3/4 , we can say that the addition of  -1  and 3/4 and 2 and 1/2 is the same as the difference between 2 and 1/2 and 1 and 3/4.

Given Equation

3x^2 + x = - 2x - 7  

Solution

Add 2x + 7 to both sides

3x^2 +x + 2x + 7 = -2x - 7 + 2x + 7           Combine like terms

3x^2  + 3x + 7 = 0

Givens

x = (-b +/(√b^2 - 4ac))/2

x = (-3 +/- (√3^2 - 4(3 *7)) / 2*3

x = (- 3 +/- (9 - 84)) / 2 *3

x = (- 3 +/- √ (-75))/6

x = (- 3 +/-  8.660i ) / 6

x = -.5 +/-1.443i

Answer

x = -.5 + 1.443.i

x = -.5 - 1.443i

1) For this question, all we need to do is to plug it in the value for x.

So,

2/3x -8 =0 Plugging into x the value x=12

2/3(12) -8 =0

8 -8 =0

0

So when x=12, then the equation is equal to zero. This leads us to conclude that 12 is the root or the solution of this equation.

The coat has a total cost of  $533.644

From the question, the given parameters are:

Cost of a coat = $74.95

Sales tax in the city = 612%

Using the sales tax, the total cost for the coat is calculated using

Total cost of coat = Cost of a coat + Cost of a coat * Sales tax in the city

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

Total cost of coat = 74.95 + 74.95 * 612%

Evaluate the products

Total cost of coat = 74.95 + 458.694

Evaluate the sum

Total cost of coat = 533.644

The discount rate is 15% and the VAT rate is 13%

The following can be deduced:

MP = 2080

Discount = d%

VAT = (d-2)%

Cost = 1997.84

Apply discount:

2080 - d% = 2080*(1 - 0.01d)

Add VAT:

2080*(1 - 0.01d) + (d - 2)%

2080*(1 - 0.01d) * (1 + (d -2)/100)

2080*(1 - 0.01d) * (0.98 + 0.01d)

= 1997.84

(1 - 0.01d)(0.98 + 0.01d) = 1997.84/2080

0.98 + 0.01d - 0.0098d - 0.0001d²

= 0.9605

- 0.0001d² + 0.0002d + 0.98- 0.9605 = 0

0.0001d²- 0.0002d - 0.0195 = 0

d² - 2d + 195 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation we get:

d = 15

Therefore discount is 15%

VAT rate = d - 2 = 15% - 2% = 13%
