In packing for a trip, Sarah puts three pairs of socks - one red, one blue, and one green - into one compartment of her suitcase. If she then pulls four individual socks out of the suitcase, simultaneously and at random, what is the probability that she pulls out exactly two matching pairs

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/5 or 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be easily solved by finding the probability of her picking one matching pair to leave in the suitcase (which results in pulling out exactly two matching pairs)

For the first sock, it does not matter what sock she picks.

For the second sock, there is only 1 out of the 5 socks left that would match the first one picked. Therefore, the probability that she pulls out exactly two matching pairs is 1/5 or 20%

The college spread is best described by the standard deviation. The high school spread is best described by the IQR.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

Both spreads are best described by the standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

,                                    College                       High School

High,                              20                               20

Low,                                6                                 3

Q₁,                                   8                                 5.5

Q₃,                                  18                                16

IQR,                                 10                                10.5

Median,                           14                                11

Mean,                              13.3                             11

σ,                                      5.2                             5.4

Checking for outliers, we have

College

Q₁ - 1.5×IQR gives 8 - 1.5×10 = -7

Q₃ + 1.5×IQR gives 18 + 1.5×10 = 33

For high school

Q₁ - 1.5×IQR gives 5.5 - 1.5×10.5 = -10.25

Q₃ + 1.5×IQR gives 16 + 1.5×10.5 = 31.75

Therefore, there are no outliers and the data is representative of the population

From the data, for the college students, it is observed that the difference between the mean, 13.3 and Q₁, 8, and between Q₃, 18 and the mean,13.3 is approximately the standard deviation, σ, 5.2

The difference between the low and the high is also approximately 3 standard deviations

Therefore the college spread is best described by the standard deviation

Similarly for the high school students, the IQR is approximately two standard deviations, the  difference between the mean, 11 and Q₁, 5.5, and between Q₃, 16 and the mean,11 is approximately the standard deviation, σ, 5.4

Therefore the high school spread is also best described by the standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of this figure can be calculated by taking the whole figure as a full rectangle, and consider the part that is cut out from the middle of the shape as another rectangle.

Find the area of the cut-out part and subtract from the area of the full rectangular shape to get the area of the composite figure.

=>Area of full rectangular shape:

Length = 30 mm

Width = 15 mm

Area = L * B = 30*15 = 450 mm²

=>Area of the cut-out Rectangle part:

Answer:

Area of the composite figure = 75.25 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Question (4). Given figure is a composite figure having,

(1). Right triangle STU

(2). A kite PSUV

(3). A trapezoid PQRS

Now we will calculate the area of each figure.

(1). Area of the right triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{ST})(\text{TU})[/tex]

                                              = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3.5)(3)[/tex]

                                              = 5.25 cm²

(2). Area of the kite PSUV = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Diagonal 1})(\text{Diagonal 2})[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{PU})(\text{SV})[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{TS+RQ})(\text{SV})[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3.5+7)(6)[/tex] [Since SV = 2 × 3 = 6 cm]

                                           = [tex]3\times 10.5[/tex]

                                           = 31.5 cm²

(3). Area of the trapezium = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)(h)[/tex] [Where [tex]b_1[/tex] and [tex]b_2[/tex] are the bases and h is the distance between the bases]

                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[(7-3)+7](7)[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{77}{2}[/tex]

                                           = 38.5 cm²

Total area of the given figure = 5.25 + 31.5 + 38.5

                                                 = 75.25 cm²

A track coach is trying to improve the 50 -meter-dash times of the track team. He times each student and then implements a month-long training program. At the end of the program, he timed each of the students again. The box plots show the number of seconds it took the students to run the 50 -meter-dash before and after the program. Using the plots, how much did the median change?

Answers

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two box plots showing the number of seconds the students completes the 50-meter-dash race before and after the program, we are to determine the difference between the median value of seconds before and after the program.

Median in a box plot is represented by the vertical line that divides the rectangular box in a box plot.

Thus, the median before the program = 15 seconds

The Median after the program = 10 seconds

The median change = 10 - 15 = -5 seconds.

This means, after the program, most of the students now finish the 50-meter-dash faster, about 5 seconds less the former seconds used before the program.

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be that missing number

One third of it is x/3

One-ninth of it is x/9

Multiply x/3 and x/9

● (x/3)*(x/9) = (x^2/27)

● (x^2/27) = 108

Multiply both sides by 27

● (x^2/27)*27 = 108*27

● x^2 = 2916

● x = √(2,916) or x = -√(2,916)

● x = 54 or x = -54

So there are two possibilities 54 and -54.

a1/3×1/9=!08

if you multiply you should get 1/27a=108

in order to let a alone multiply both sides by 27

and now your a which is unknown will equal 2916.

The hardcover version of a book sells for 15 dollars and the paperback sells for 11.50. If a store sells 70 copies of the book in one month and charges 917 dollars how many hardcover versions were sold

Answers

Answer: 32 copies of hardcover version.

Step-by-step explanation: Suppose the quantity of hardcover version copies sold is H and the paperback copies is P.

1) A store sells a total of 70 copies:

H + P = 70

2) One hardcover is sold for $15 and one paperback for $11.50. In one month was charged $917:

15H + 11.5P = 917

Solving the system of equations:

H + P = 70 (I)

15H + 11.5P = 917 (II)

Since it is asked for the hardcover version, find H.

Multiply equation (I) by -11.5:

-11.5H - 11.5P = - 805 (III)

Add (II) and (III):

-11.5H - 11.5P = - 805

  15H + 11.5P = 917

  3.5H            = 112

H = 32

In one month, it was sold 32 hardcover version of a book.

B. 3517
C. 3524
D. 3493

Answers

Answer:

The 500th term is 3,517

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are given an explicit formula to calculate the 500th term of the sequence

The formula to use is ;

a + (n-1)d

where a refers to the first term which is 24 in this case, while d is the common difference which is the difference between success terms and that is 52-45 = 45-38 = 7 and finally n is 500

Now we make a substitution into the formula and we have

24 + (500-1)7

= 24 + (499)7

= 24 + 3493 = 3,517

Answers

Answer:

a) 10x - 14y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two equations linear dependent if you can write one as a multiple of the other. It means that the equation that is a linear dependent with -5x+7y=2 is:

10x - 14y = -4

Because it can be written as:

-2(-5x+7y) = -2(2)

So, this equation is equivalent to -5x + 7y = 2

Answers

Answer:

x = -4/5 and x = 3/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of x^2 is 25, which is 5 * 5. 5 * -3 = -15, and 5 * 4 = 20. 20 - 15 = 5.

So...

25x^2 + 5x - 12 = 0

(5x + 4)(5x - 3) = 0

5x + 4 = 0

5x = -4

x = -4/5

5x - 3 = 0

5x = 3

x = 3/5

So, x = -4/5 and x = 3/5.
