Step-by-step explanation:

Alright man im not a pro at this, so im not gonna have a professional explanation, but the final answer will be correct.

So listen up a dice has 6 sides labeled 1,2,3,4,5,6

3 of those are even

3 of those are odd

so you have a 50% chance of landing on an evan numbered side

and a 50% chance of landing on an odd-numbered side

So basically, if we play one round, there are 2 possibilities. We get even and win 2 bucks, or we get odd and lose a buck. We dont need to worry about probability as they are both 50%. Therfore, the value is 2-1 = 1 dollar. I found the value by subtracting the possbilities.

Answer:

The volume of the composite figure is 12,719 cm³ to the nearest whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure is composed of a cone and a half-sphere.

To calculate the volume of the figure, sum the volume of the cone and the volume of the half-sphere.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Volume of a cone}\\\\$V=\dfrac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the radius. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $h$ is the height.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]     [tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Volume of a half-sphere}\\\\$V=\dfrac{2}{3} \pi r^3$ \\\\ where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the radius. \\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation for the volume of the composite figure is:

[tex]V=\dfrac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h+\dfrac{2}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]

From inspection of the given diagram:

As the diameter of a circle is twice its radius, r = 14 cm.

Substitute the values of r, h and π into the equation and solve for V:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies V&=\dfrac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h+\dfrac{2}{3} \pi r^3\\\\&=\dfrac{1}{3} (3.14) (14)^2 (34)+\dfrac{2}{3} (3.14) (14)^3\\\\&=\dfrac{1}{3} (3.14) (196) (34)+\dfrac{2}{3} (3.14) (2744)\\\\&=6974.98666...+5744.10666...\\\\&=12719.09333...\\\\&=12719\;\sf cm^3\;\;(nearest\;whole\;number)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 12,719 cm³ to the nearest whole number.

Find the value of the expression if a =2, b= -3 and c=-1 ; ab2 -c3}

The mean oil-change time for which there is a 10% chance of being at or below is approximately 15.92 minutes.

We can start by using the Central Limit Theorem.

Data given:

The population mean is μ = 16.9 minutes

population standard deviation is σ = 4.7 minutes

sample size of n = 40 oil changes performed between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M.

The standard error of the mean (SE) is given by:

SE = σ / √n

SE = 4.7 / √40

SE = 0.743

To find the mean oil-change time for which there is a 10% chance of being at or below, we need to find the z-score associated with the 10th percentile of the standard normal distribution, which is -1.28 (using a standard normal distribution table or calculator).

We can use the formula for a z-score:

z = (x - μ) / SE

where x is the desired mean oil-change time.

Substituting the known values and solving for x, we get:

-1.28 = (x - 16.9) / 0.743

x = -1.28 * 0.743 + 16.9

x = 15.92

Michelle biked approximately 37.68 miles in the shape of a circle.

A circle's diameter and radius are connected because the diameter is twice as long as the radius. Mathematically, this connection may be written as d = 2r, where d stands for the diameter and r for the radius. On the other hand, we can alternatively state that the radius is equal to half the diameter's length: r = d/2

The circumference of a circle can be found using the formula:

C = πd

Given that,

Michelle biked around the trail 4 times.

The circumference is:

C = π x 3 = 9.42 miles

Answer:

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, square both sides.

[tex]\left(\sqrt{3+\dfrac{\left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2}{6}}\, \right)^2= 3^2[/tex]

[tex]3+\dfrac{\left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2}{6} = 9[/tex]

This eliminates the square root over the entire left side of the equation.

Next, multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction on the left side.

[tex]6\left(3+\dfrac{\left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2}{6}\right) = 6( 9)[/tex]

[tex]6(3) + \left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2 = 6(9)[/tex]

[tex]18 + \left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2 = 54[/tex]

Then, subtract 18 from both sides to isolate the squared term.

[tex]18 + \left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2 = 54\\\underline{-18 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \: } \ \ \ \ \ \underline{ - 18}[/tex]

[tex]\left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2 = 36[/tex]

Now, we can square root both sides.

[tex]\sqrt{\left(4 + \sqrt{x+3} \, \right)^2} = \sqrt{36}[/tex]

[tex]4 + \sqrt{x+3} = \pm 6[/tex]

Remember to use apply the even root property, so that the right side (6) is positive or negative (indicated by the plus or minus sign).

Next, subtract 4 from both sides.

[tex]4 + \sqrt{x+3} = \pm 6 \\ \underline{-4\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \: } \ \ \ \ \ \underline{ - 4}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{x+3} = \pm 6 - 4[/tex]

Then, square both sides to get rid of the square root on the left side.

[tex]\left(\sqrt{x+3}\right)^2 = (\pm 6 - 4)^2[/tex]

[tex]x+3 = 2^2[/tex]    OR    [tex]x+3 = (-10)^2[/tex]

We can see that there are two resulting expressions, each of which we can solve individually.

[tex]x+3 = 4[/tex]    OR    [tex]x+3 = 100[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{x = 1}[/tex]                 [tex]\boxed{x\ne97}[/tex]

The reason that x = 97 is crossed out is because when we plug that x-value back into the original equation, it does not come out to be true. Therefore, 97 is an extraneous solution.

Also, see the attached image for another solution (that implores another method).

Answer:

  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to solve for x:

  [tex]\sqrt{3+\dfrac{(4+\sqrt{x+3})^2}{6}}=3[/tex]

At any stage where there is a root, you isolate the radical and raise both sides of the equation to a power sufficient to eliminate the radical. Repeat as necessary.

The radical is already on one side of the equation by itself, so we simply square both sides:

  [tex]3+\dfrac{(4+\sqrt{x+3})^2}{6}=9\\\\(4+\sqrt{x+3})^2=6^2\qquad\text{subtract 3, multiply by 6}\\\\|4+\sqrt{x+3}|=6\qquad\text{take the square root}[/tex]

At this point, we note that the sum cannot be negative, so the absolute value bars are irrelevant. Isolating the radical and squaring both sides, we can finish the solution.

  [tex]4+\sqrt{x+3}=6\\\\\sqrt{x+3}=2\qquad\text{subtract 4}\\\\x+3=4\qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\\boxed{x=1}\qquad\text{subtract 3}[/tex]

This is the only solution, as the attached graph shows.

Additional comment

Generally, the square root symbol means the positive square root. That is, √z is usually considered to be non-negative.  This is why we use ±√z when we want both signs of the root.

In this problem, the only root we're taking as part of the solution is the root of a square. The possibility of a negative value for the term being squared is handled by using the absolute value brackets: √(z²) = |z|.

For solving these using a graphing calculator, we like to rewrite the equation to the form f(x)=0. That way, the solutions are the x-intercepts.

The sample space for spinning the spinner two times is -

{Blue, Orange} {Blue, Red} {Orange, Red}

{Blue, Blue} {Red, Blue} {Orange, Blue}

{Red, Red} {Orange, Orange}

What is a sample?

A sample is characterised as a more manageable and compact version of a bigger group. A smaller population that possesses the traits of a bigger group. When the population size is too big to include all participants or observations in the test, a sample is utilised in statistical analysis.

The sample space for spinning the spinner two times can be found by listing all possible outcomes of the two spins.

Each spin has three possible outcomes, so the total number of outcomes for two spins is 3 x 3 = 9.

One way to list the sample space is to use a table where the rows and columns represent the outcomes of the first and second spins, respectively.

The entries in the table represent the ordered pairs of outcomes, with the first entry corresponding to the first spin and the second entry corresponding to the second spin.

Using this method, the sample space for spinning the spinner two times is -

Blue | Blue | (Blue, Blue) | Blue | Orange | (Blue, Orange) | Blue | Red | (Blue, Red)

Red | Blue | (Red, Blue) | Red | Orange | (Red, Orange) | Red | Red | (Red, Red)

Orange | Blue | (Orange, Blue) | Orange | Orange | (Orange, Orange) | Orange | Red | (Orange, Red)

Alternatively, we can list the outcomes as an unordered set of two elements, where the order of the elements does not matter.

In this case, the sample space for two spins would be -

{Blue, Orange} {Blue, Red} {Orange, Red}

{Blue, Blue} {Red, Blue} {Orange, Blue}

{Red, Red} {Orange, Orange}

Therefore, the sample space is obtained.

To determine the growth rate of the plant, we will determine the slope of the line

To determine the slope of the line passing through the points (1, 1/2) and (3, 1 1/2), we can use the slope formula:

Slope = (Change in y) / (Change in x)

We first calculate the change in y by subtracting the y-coordinate of the first point from the y-coordinate of the second point:

Δy = 1 1/2 - 1/2 = 1

Next, we calculate the change in x by subtracting the x-coordinate of the first point from the x-coordinate of the second point:

Δx = 3 - 1 = 2

Finally, we can calculate the slope by dividing the change in y by the change in x:

Slope = Δy / Δx = 1 / 2

As a result, Kathleen's retirement account will be worth $16,389.0 when she turns 65.

The difference between the future value and the initial investment is the total interest that Kathleen will earn:

Total interest is equal to $16,389 minus $6,000

Interest totaled $10,389.0.

Hence, when Kathleen retires, her total interest will be $10,389.

If A file that is 278 megabytes is being downloaded and the download is 19.7% complete, then you just need to multiply the 278 megabytes with 19.7%

The calculation would be: 278 megabytes x 0.197 = 54.766 megabytes.

If you round up the answer to nearest tenth it will be 54.8 megabytes.

Answer:

The greatest possible distance between two points on the walls in the room is 17 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The room can be modelled as a rectangular prism with the following dimensions:

The greatest possible distance between two points on the walls in the room is the line between diagonally opposite corners. This is marked as the blue line (x) on the attached 3D diagram.

This distance is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a base of the diagonal of the floor and a height of the height of the room.

The diagonal of the floor (marked "y" on the attached diagram) is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of the width and length of the room.  To calculate the diagonal of the floor, use Pythagoras Theorem.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{9 cm}\underline{Pythagoras Theorem} \\\\$a^2+b^2=c^2$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ and $b$ are the legs of the right triangle. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $c$ is the hypotenuse (longest side) of the right triangle.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Substitute a = 8, b = 12 and c = y into the formula and solve for y:

[tex]\implies 8^2+12^2=y^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 64+144=y^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies y^2=208[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=\sqrt{208}\; \sf ft[/tex]

Therefore, the diagonal of the floor (y) is √(208) feet in length.

We can now use Pythagoras Theorem again to find the length x.

Substitute a = y, b = 9 and c = x into the formula:

[tex]\implies y^2+9^2=x^2[/tex]

Substitute the found value of y and solve for x:

[tex]\implies (\sqrt{208})^2+9^2=x^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 208+81=x^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 289=x^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\sqrt{289}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=17 \sf \; ft[/tex]

Therefore, the greatest possible distance between two points on the walls in the room is 17 feet.
