Answer 1

Answer:

  0.4762

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9C5 = 126 ways to choose 5 candidates to give speeches. There are (5C3)(4C2) = 60 ways that 3 of those candidates can be biology majors (and the other two can be non-biology majors). The probability of interest is ...

Exactly 1 1/3 yard of ribbon is needed to make a bow. Which of the following lengths of ribbon could be used to make a bow with the least amount remaining?

Answers

The answer choice which could be used to make a bow with the least amount remaining is; 1 2/5 yards.

Which Length of ribbon renders the least remainder?

It follows from the task content that the amount of ribbon remaining in each case can be evaluated as follows;

For 1 2/5 yards: 1 2/5 - 1 1/3 = 1/15. renders only 1/15 a yard to waste.

For 1 and 1/6 yards would render a waste of 1 1/6 yards since it is not possible to make a ribbon out of it.

1 2/10 yards would render a waste of 1 and 1/5 yards since it is not possible to make a ribbon out of it.

7:20 AM

Answers

Answer:

Mehmut is 8 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement we can get the following information, let M be Mehmut's age and b brother's age:

M = 4 * b

M + 1 = 3 * (b + 1)

We replace the first equation in the second and we are left with:

4 * b + 1 = 3 * b + 3

4 * b - 3 * b = 3 - 1

b = 2

Now, we replace to calculate M:

M = 4 * b

M = 4 * 2

M = 8

Mehmut is 8 years old.

y = - 2x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute out the two on the right side of the equation.

y + 7 = - 2x - 6

Answers

Answer:

B, π:(4-π).

Step By Step:

With a side of length 12, we have an area of 144. The circle's radius is 3, so their area is 9π, per circle. All four circles have a total combined area of 36π  - green. The area that is left of the square after the circles are painted green  is  144-36π - White

What is the measure of < B, in degrees?

Answers

Answer:

B. 32°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since two of the sides are 10 in length, then we can infer that ∠A and ∠C are congruent. So, both equal 74°. You add 74 + 74 + x = 180, x would equal 32°.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of angle in triangle is 180

and since its isosceles triangle, it means <C will be same with <A

so we know that A + C = 148.

so the value of B will be like this

B = 180° - (A+C)° = 180 - 148 = 32°

The maximum point on the graph of the equation
y = f(x) is (2,-3). What is the maximum point on
the graph of the equation y=f(x-4)?

Answers

Answer:

(6, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then f( x + c) represents a horizontal translation of f(x)

• If c > 0 then a shift to the left of c units

• If c < 0 then a shift to the right of c units, thus

y = f(x - 4) represents a shift to the right of 4 units, so

(2, - 3 ) → (2 + 4, - 3 ) → (6, - 3 )

The maximum point on the graph after translation y = f( x -4) is (6 , -3)

What is translation of a graph?

Translation of a graph is the movement of the graph either in horizontal direction or vertical direction .

Horizontal translation to the left is given by f (x+ c) ,c >0

: (x, y) → (x- c , y)

Horizontal translation to the right is given by f (x- c) ,c >0

: (x, y) → (x+ c , y)

Given that the maximum point on the graph of the equation

y = f(x) is (2,-3)

To find the maximum point on the graph of the equation y = f(x-4)

f(x -4) is Horizontal Translation to the right with 4 units , c= 4

then  (x, y) → (x+ c , y)

Thus the maximum point (2,-3) is moved to ( 2 +c , -3)

⇒ (2+ c , -3) = (2+4 , -3) = ( 6 , -3)

Therefore, the maximum point of the graph of the equation  y = f(x-4) becomes (6,-3)

Joey and Nolan are each solving the equation 13x - 42 = 18 - 7x. Joey's first step was to rewrite the equation as 20x - 42 = 18 while Nolan's first step was to rewrite the equation as 13x = 60 - 7x. Who is correctly applying the addition property of equality in the first step of his work? A. Only Joey B. Only Nolan C. Both Joey and Nolan D. Neither Joey nor Nolan​

Answers

Answer:

Correct option: C.

(Both Joey and Nolan)

Step-by-step explanation:

The step Joey did is:

Add 7x to both sides of the equation

Then, he got:

13x - 42 + 7x = 18 - 7x + 7x

20x - 42 = 18

The step Nolan did is:

Add 42 to both sides of the equation

Then, he got:

13x - 42 + 42 = 18 - 7x + 42

13x = 60 - 7x

So both of them used correctly the addition property of equality in the first step of their work.
