hope this helps

Answer 2

The probability that the selected fish will not have a red fin or a green tail is 0.30.

To find the probability.

What is probability?

probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of possible outcomes.

Given that:

G=fish has green tail

R=fish has red fin

G^R = fish has both a red fin and a green tail

P(G)=.54

P(R) = .18

P(G^R) = .02

P(GvR) = P(G) + P(R) - P(G^R) = .54 + .18 - .02 =

P(GvR) =.72 - .02 = .7

P(neither G nor R) = 1-.7 = .3 = 30%

So, the probability that the selected fish will not have a red fin or a green tail is 0.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it's ________ to the other line. Question 16 options: A) perpendicular B) congruent C) parallel D) supplementary

Answers

Answer: Perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that you have two perpendicular lines:

Remember that a line is something like:

y = a*x +b

and two lines are parallel if they have the same slope (a) but a different y-intercept(b)

Then our lines can be:

y1 = a*x + b1

y2 = a*x + b2.

Now, if we have a line:

y = a*x + b

Then a perpendicular line will have a slope equal to -(1/a):

yp = (-1/a)*x + c

So this only depends on the slope, and we know that our two parallel lines have the same slope. So if we construct a transversal line that is perpendicular to one of our lines, it also must be perpendicular to the other line.

Solve the system by substitution. x−5y=13 4x−3y=1 Enter your answer as an ordered pair (x,y).

Answers

Answer:

(-2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well in the system,

x−5y=13

4x−3y=1

We need to find x or y in either equation.

Let's do x - 5y = 13 for x.

+5y to both sides

x = 5y + 13

Now we substitute 5y + 13 for y in 4x - 3y = 1.

4(5y + 13) - 3y = 1

20y + 52 - 3y = 1

17y + 52 = 1

-52 to both sides

17y = -51

Divide all by 17

y = -3

Now we can substitute -3 for y in 4x - 3y = 1.

4x - 3(-3) = 1

4x + 9 = 1

-9 to both sides

4x = -8

Divide 4 to both sides

x = -2

Thus,

the solution is (-2,-3).

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

( - 2 , - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5y = 13

4x - 3y = 1

Solve the equation for x

[tex]x - 5y = 13[/tex]

Move '5y' to R.H.S and change it's sign

[tex]x = 13 + 5y[/tex]

Substitute the given value of X into the equation

4x - 3y = 1

[tex]4(13 + 5y) - 3y = 1[/tex]

Solve the equation for y

distribute 4 through the parentheses

[tex]52 + 20y - 3y = 1[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]52 + 17y = 1[/tex]

Move constant to R.H.S and change it's sign

[tex]17y = 1 - 52[/tex]

Calculate

[tex]17y = - 51[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 17

[tex] \frac{17y}{17} = \frac{ - 51}{17} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex]y = - 3[/tex]

Now, substitute the given value of y into the equation

x = 13 + 5y

[tex]x = 13 + 5 \times ( - 3)[/tex]

Solve the equation for x

Multiply the numbers

[tex] = 13 - 15[/tex]

Calculate the difference

[tex] = - 2[/tex]

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair

( x , y )

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

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equation

[tex] - 2 - 5 \times ( - 3) = 15[/tex]

[tex]4 \times ( - 2) - 3 \times ( - 3) = 1[/tex]

Simplify the equalities

[tex]13 = 13[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1[/tex]

Since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system

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

The Chandlers are moving across the country. Mr. Chandler leaves 2.5 hours before Mrs. Chandler. If he averages 75 mph and she averages 85 mph, how many hours
will it take Mrs. Chandler to catch up to Mr. Chandler?​

Answers

Answer:

It will take Mrs Chandler 18 hours 45 minutes or 18.75 hours to catch up Mr Chandler

Step-by-step explanation:

What we want to know here is that at how many hours will they have traveled same distance.

Let the total time taken by Mrs Chandler to catch up be x hours

Since Mr Chandler left 2.5 hours earlier , then the total time taken by him would be x + 2.5 hours

Now, we know that distance = speed * time

Since it’s same distance covered;

For Mr Chandler, his distance is calculated as 75(x + 2.5)

For Mrs Chandler, her distance is calculated as 85x

We equate both since they are equal;

75(x + 2.5) = 85x

75x + 187.5 = 85x

85x -75x = 187.5

10x = 187.5

x = 18.75 hours or 18 hours 45 minutes

This is a cross-sectional view of candy bar ABC. A candy company wants to create a cylindrical container for candy bar ABC so that it is circumscribed about the candy bar. If = 4 cm, what is the smallest diameter of wrapper that will fit the candy bar?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No figure supplied, so lots of assumptions needed.

Assume side length of triangle is 4 cm.  

( If = 4 cm  means ??)

Assume ABC is equiangular, all three angles are 60 degrees.

(This is a cross-sectional view, but don't see any)

Side length = 4

altitude of triangle = 4 sin(60) = 2sqrt(3)

radius of circumscribed circle of equilateral triangle

R = (2/3) altitude

= (2/3)*2sqrt(3)

= (4/3)sqrt(3)

Diameter

D = 2R

= (8/3) sqrt(3)

Answer: 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure in the image attached below shows that there are two specific angles that are congruent to each other, angles AD and CD.

We are given the length of one of these angles:

AD= 4 cm so we must multiply 4 by 2, since there are TWO angles measuring 4 cm.

4 cm x 2 angles (AD and CD) =8 cm.

The floor of a shed given on the right has an area of 44 square feet . The floor is in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 3 less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the floor of the shed.

Answers

Answer:

The length and width of the floor of the shed are 8 feet and 5.5 feet, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the shape of the shed is a rectangle, the expression for the area is:

[tex]A = w \cdot l[/tex]

Where [tex]w[/tex] and [tex]l[/tex] are the width and length of the shed, measured in feet. In addition, the statement shows that [tex]l = 2\cdot w - 3\,ft[/tex]. Then, the equation of area is expanded by replacing length:

[tex]A = w\cdot (2\cdot w - 3)[/tex]

[tex]A = 2\cdot w^{2} - 3\cdot w[/tex]

If [tex]A = 44\,ft^{2}[/tex], then, a second-order polynomial is formed:

[tex]2\cdot w^{2}-3\cdot w - 44 = 0[/tex]

The roots of this equation are found via General Equation for Second-Order Polynomials:

[tex]w_{1} = \frac{11}{2}\,ft[/tex] and [tex]w_{2} = -4\,ft[/tex]

Only the first roots is a physically reasonable solution. Then, the length of the shed is:

[tex]l = 2\cdot \left(\frac{11}{2}\,ft \right)-3\,ft[/tex]

[tex]l = 8\,ft[/tex]

The length and width of the floor of the shed are 8 feet and 5.5 feet, respectively.

A 10 ft ladder is propped up against a building at an angle of 39°. How far up the wall does the ladder go?

Answers

Answer:

6.3 ft

The ladder lying on the wall with an elevation of 39° forms a right angled triangle.

Hypotenuse = length of ladder = 10 ft

Opposite = x = ?

θ = 39°

Use trigonometric ratio formula to find, x, which is how far the ladder goes up the wall.

The trigonometric ratio formula to use is:

sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin(39) = x/10

Multiply both sides by 10

10*sin(39) = x

Find the most general antiderivative of the function. (Check your answer by differentiation. Use C for the constant of the antiderivative.) f(x) = x2 − 7x + 5

Answers

Answer:

F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The antiderivative of a function (also called the integration of a function) is the reverse of the differentiation of that function. Given a function f(x), its integration, F(x), can be calculated as follows;

F(x) = [tex]\int\limits{f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

From the question, f(x) = x² - 7x + 5

Therefore,

F(x) = [tex]\int\limits {(x^2 - 7x + 5)} \, dx[/tex]

F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]

Where c is the constant of the integration (antiderivative).

PS: The constant of integration is used for indefinite integrals and allows to express integration of a function in its most general form.

1.7 0.5 3.6 3.4 1.9
4.0 2.1 1.9 1.1 0.5

How do I make a stem and leaf plot for these numbers?

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step Explanation:

To create a stem-and-leaf plot for the GPAs of the 20 students that were listed in the above question, take the following steps:

Step 1: for easy plotting, write down the GPAs in an ordered manner, that is, from the smallest value to the largest.

0.5, 0.5, 0.9, 1.1, 1.6, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.9, 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 2.9, 3.3, 3.4, 3.6, 4.0,  4.0,  4.0

Step 2: divide each set of data into a stem and a leaf. For example, for a GPA, 0.5, 0 would be the stem, while 5 would be the leaf.

For a GPA listed, 2.9, 2 is the stem, 9 is the leaf. Same applies to all the other GPAs.

Step 3: All stems should be written in ascending order, vertically, from the smallest to the largest. From the listed GPAs, you would observe that the highest stem value would be 4, while the lowest would be 0.

Therefore, write down your stems vertically, in ascending order as shown below:

0 |

1 |

2 |

3 |

4 |

Step 4: All leaves should be written also in ascending order to their corresponding stem, from the smallest to the largest, as shown below:

Stem | Leaf

0 | 5 5 9

1 | 1 6 6 7 8 9 9

2 | 1 3 4 9

3 | 3 4 6

4 | 0 0 0

Thus,

0 | 5 5 9 represents => 0.5, 0.5, 0.9

The value of y varies inversely as the square of x, and y = 16, when I = 3.
Find the value of x when y = 1.​

Answers

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement

The value of y varies inversely as the square of x is written as

[tex]y = \frac{k}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

where k is the constant of proportionality

To find the value of x when y = 1 first find the formula for the variation

y = 16 x = 3

k = yx²

k = 16(3)²

k = 16 × 9

k = 144

The formula for the variation is

[tex]y = \frac{144}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

when y = 1

We have

[tex]1 = \frac{144}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

Cross multiply

x² = 144

Find the square root of both sides

We have the final answer as

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an AP is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given

6(a₁ + 5d) = 13(a₁ + 12d) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6a₁ + 30d = 13a₁ + 156d ( subtract 13a₁ from both sides )

- 7a₁ + 30d = 156d ( subtract 30d from both sides )

- 7a₁ = 126d ( divide both sides by - 7 )

a₁ = - 18d

Now

a₁₉ = a₁ + 18d = - 18d + 18d = 0 ← as required

A recipe for 1 batch of muffins used 2/3 of blueberries. Amir made 2 1/2 batches of muffins. How many cups of blueberries did he use? A. 1 4/6 B. 1 5/6 C. 2 2/6 D. 3 1/6. Please show your work.

Answers

Answer:

A. 1 4/6 cups of blueberries

Step-by-step explanation:

1 -- 2/3                      

Proportion, Batches to Blueberries

1*(2 1/2) -- (2/3)( 2 1/2)              

Because we are now multiplying the 1 batch to 2 1/2 batches. So to keep the proportion balanced/equal we are using the same operation on the right side of the proportion

2 1/2 -- (2/3)( 5/2 )      

2 1/2 -- 5/3

2 1/2 -- 1 2/3

Simplify

On the right side shows the blueberries for 2 1/2 batches. 1 2/3 = 1 4/6

Write the first 4 terms of the sequence defined by the given rule f(n)=n2 -1

Answers

Answer:

0, 3, 8, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4 to the equation f(n) = n² - 1:

f(1) = 1² - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

f(2) = 2² - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

f(3) = 3² - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8

f(4) = 4² - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

Find the x-coordinates of the two points on the curve
y=x-1/x at which the tangent is parallel to the straight line 4y= x + 8. (4 marks)​

Answers

Answer: x = {-2, 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent means it is touching. Find the intersection of the two equations.

Solve the linear equation for y, then set the two equations equal to each other.

[tex]4y=x+8\qquad \rightarrow \qquad y=\dfrac{x+8}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x-1}{x}=\dfrac{x+8}{4}\\\\\\\text{Cross multiply and solve for x:}\\4(x-1)=x(x+8)\\4x-4=x^2+8x\\.\qquad 0=x^2+4x+4\\.\qquad 0=(x+2)^2\\.\qquad 0=x+2\\.\qquad x=-2[/tex]

To find the next point that is parallel to the linear equation and tangent to the curve, we need to use the linear equation with slope (m) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] and unknown b.

Let's try b = 0, then the equation of the linear equation is: [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{4}x[/tex]

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for x:

[tex]\dfrac{x-1}{x}=\dfrac{x}{4}\\\\\\4(x-1)=x^2\\4x-4=x^2\\.\qquad 0=x^2-4x+4\\.\qquad 0=(x-2)^2\\.\qquad 0=x-2\\.\qquad x=2[/tex]

This works!!!  If it didn't work, we would have tried other values for b until we arrived at a solution.

A congressman wants to measure the level of support in his district for campaign finance reform and determine if there is a gender gap among voters with respect to this issue. One aid suggests that they find separate confidence intervals for the percent of men and the percent of women who favor reform and then see if the intervals overlap. Another aid suggests that they find a confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of men and women who favor reform. The question is: Is there a gender gap

Answers

Answer:

Campaign Finance Reform

Gender Gap among Voters in the District

There is a gender gap among women and men who favor campaign finance reform.

Step-by-step explanation:

In issues such as the above, a gender gap always exist between women and men who think that there is the need to reform the campaign finance.  Women ordinarily favor a reduction in the campaign finance.  On the other hand, men do not mind so much about the candidate expenditure in campaigns.  Reducing the huge campaign finance will ensure that political campaigns and aspiration to political offices are not left to money bags.  Many women would like to get involved, but they are limited by funding.  So, anytime the issue of reforming the whole electoral system, especially with respect to campaigns, women favor the reforms more than men.  The gap is always there.  The main issue is how would this gap be measured?
