the box contains 8 blue and 4 black pencils. 5 pencils are drawn at random from the box. find the probability that out of 5 pencils taken, 2 are blue and 3 are black.

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that out of 5 pencils taken, 2 are blue and 3 are black is 0.4381.

What is probability?

Probability simply means the likelihood that something will occur or happen.

In this case, the the box contains 8 blue and 4 black pencils. The probability of drawing 2 blue balls will be:

= 8/12 × 7/11

= 0.4242

The probability of drawing 3 blacks will be:

= 4/12 × 3/12 × 2/12

= 1/3 × 1/4 × 1/6

= 0.0139

The probability will be the addition of the values. This will be:

= 0.4242 + 0.0139

= 0.4381

The probability is 0.4381.

shelly wants to tile a rectangular floor that measures 132 feet by 150 feet using square tiles that are all of the same size, with no overlap and no squares hanging over the edge. what is the measurement of the largest square tiles she can use?

Answers

The measurement of the largest square tiles she can use is 6 feet.

Finding all common factors between two numbers and choosing the biggest one yields the highest common factor (HCF). For instance, the numbers 8 and 12 share the elements 1, 2, and 4. Four is the greatest common factor.

Steps for calculating HCF:

Step 1: Write each integer as the sum of its prime factors in step one.

Step 2: List the shared factors between the two numbers.

Step 3: The HCF is the sum of all the common prime factors ( use the lower power of each common factor)

Given,

Measurement of the rectangular floor:

length = 150 feet

breadth = 132 feet

The measurement of the largest square can be calculated by finding the HCF of 132 and 150.

132 = 2*2*3*11

150 = 2*3*5*5

So, HCF (132, 150) = 2*3 = 6.

Hence, the measurement of the largest square tiles she can use is 6 feet.

Answers

If  Han and Tyler both started running toward each other from opposite ends of a 10-mile path along a river. Han and Tyler will not meet on the path within 1 hour

Calculations to show if Han and Tyler meet on the path within 1 hour

The following information is gotten from the question

Han and Tyler both started running toward each other from opposite ends of a 10-mile path

Han runs at a pace of 12 minutes per mile

Tyler runs at a pace of 15 minutes per mile

Distance covered by Han in 1 hour

12 minutes = 1 mile

60 minutes = ? miles

cross multiplying gives

? = 60 / 12

? = 5 miles

Distance covered by Tyler in 1 hour

15 minutes = 1 mile

60 minutes = ? miles

cross multiplying gives

? = 60 / 15

? = 4 miles

This means that Han covers 5 miles in and Tyler covers 4 miles, in a 10 mile distance.

In one hour the distance covered

= 5 miles + 4 miles

= 9 miles

9 miles is less than 10 miles hence they will not meet in the path within one hour

Charmaine the trainer has two solo workout plans that she offers her clients: Plan A and Plan B. Each client does either one or the other (not both). On Friday there were 6 clients who did Plan A ands who did Plan
B. On Saturday there were 2 clients who did Plan A and 3 who did Plan B
Charmaine trained her Friday clients for a total of 7 hours and her Saturday clients for a total of 3 hours. How long does each of the workout plans last?

Answers

The number of hour (time) for which workout plan A would last is 0.75 hour. Also, the number of hour (time) for which workout plan B would last is 0.5 hour.

How to calculate the number of hours (time)?

In order to solve this word problem, we would assign variables to the number of hours (time) each plan and then translate the word problem into algebraic equation as follows:

Let x be the number of hours (time) for workout plan A.Let y be the number of hours (time) for workout plan B.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

On Friday  ⇒     6x + 5y = 7    ....equation 1.

On Saturday  ⇒ 2x + 3y = 3     ....equation 2.

Next, we would solve the simultaneous equation by using elimination method:

3 × (2x + 3y = 3) = 6x + 9y = 9    ........equation 3.

Subtracting equation 1 from equation 3, we have:

6x + 9y = 9

6x + 5y = 7

4y = 2

y = 2/4

y = 1/2

y = 0.5 hour.

For the value of x, we have:

6x + 5y = 7

6x + 5(0.5) = 7

6x + 2.5 = 7

6x = 7 - 2.5

6x = 4.5

x = 4.5/6

x = 0.75 hour.

Graph the equation after rewriting it in slope-intercept form. 9x+3y=18

Answers

The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

The given equation is

9x + 3y = 18

We would rearrange it so that it takes the form of the slope intercept equation shown above.

We would divide both sides of the equation by 3, we have

9x/3 + 3y/3 = 18/3

3x + y = 6

Subtracting 3x from both sides of the equation, we have

3x - 3x + y = 6 - 3x

y = 6 - 3x

The slope intercept form is

y = - 3x + 6

To plot the graph, we would substitute values of x into the equation to get corresponding y values. These x and y values would be plotted on the x and y coordinates of the graph. We have

For x = - 2, y = 6 - 3(- 2) = 6 + 6 = 12

For x = - 1, y = 6 - 3(-1) = 6 + 3 = 9

For x = 0, y = 6 - 3(0) = 6 - 0 = 6

For x = 1, y = 6 - 3(1) = 6 - 3 = 3

For x = 2, y = 6 - 3(2) = 6 -6 = 0

The graph is shown below

Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

Check to see when the graph is increasing and decreasing from left to right.

It is decreasing from x = -5 to x = -3 or (-5,-3) These look like a points but are not. They are intervals.

Then, it increases from x = -3 to x = 0 or (-3,0)

Then, it stays constant from x = 0 to x = 2 or (0,2)

Lastly, it decreases from x - 2 to x = 5 or (2,5)

To summarize, the graph is increasing from (-3,0). Decreasing on (-5,-3) and (2,5). and constant on (0,2)

A number line is a long straight line with numbers marked at equal intervals. On a number line, we can argue that as we move to the right, the value of numbers increases. This signifies that the numbers on the right are more than those on the left.

A number line shows how numbers are related. It's a line with check marks next to each number. The numerals get smaller as you move left on the number line. The numbers grow larger as you move closer to the number line.

39+(20.4) can u help me with this answer I don't know how to do it

Answers

You have the following expression:

39 + (-20.4)

In order to simplify the previous expression, you first eliminate the parenthesis. To do that, you take into account that the sign before the parenthesis must multiply the sign inisde. In this case, you have a positive sign + before the parenthesis, and inside you have a minus -. When the parenthesis is eliminated, these signs are multiplied (here you use the multiplication rule for signs). Thus, you have that - x + = - (positive multiplied by negative is equal to negative). And the expression becomes:

39 + (-20.4)

= 39 - 20.4
