Answer:

P(A and B) = 0.1344 = 13.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the chances are disjoint and you want the chance of both happening, you can multiply their individual chances.

It's easiest to express them as a fraction, i.e., 64% = 0.64 and 21% = 0.21

P(A and B) = 0.64 * 0.21 = 0.1344 which is 13.44%

HELP! Point A is located at (3, -1). It is moved 5 units to the left and 4 units up. Its new coordinates are:

Answers

Answer:  (-2,3)

Explanation:

Subtract 5 from the x coordinate to move the point five units to the left. We go from (3,-1) to (-2,-1) after doing this.

Next up, add 4 to the y coordinate to shift the point up four units. We go from (-2,-1) to (-2,3)

Answer is    (-2,3)

===========================================================

Explanation:

Subtract 5 from the x coordinate to move the point five units to the left. We go from (3,-1) to (-2,-1) after doing this.

Next up, add 4 to the y coordinate to shift the point up four units. We go from (-2,-1) to (-2,3)

See diagram below. Point A is the initial point, B is the second step, and C is the final destination.

-----------

Another way to write out the steps is to use the transformation rule below

[tex](x,y) \to (x-5, y+4)\\\\(3,-1) \to (3-5, -1+4)\\\\(3,-1) \to (-2, 3)\\\\[/tex]

x + y = -5
A. (2, -1)
B. (-3,-2)
C. (4, -5)
D. (1,1)

Answers

Answer:

(-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite first equation in slope-intercept form ( y = mx + b)

2x -y + 4 = 0

-y = -2x - 4

y = 2x + 4

Now rewrite second equation in slope intercept form

y = -x -5

Graph both equations on a calculator and you see that they intersect at (-3,-2)

Answers

The answer is -14


Explanation:

x - 8 = 2x + 6

We move all term to the left

x - 8 - ( 2x + 6 ) = 0

We get rid of parentheses

x - 2x - 6 - 8 = 0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1x - 14 = 0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other term to the right

-x = 14
x = 14/-1
x = -14

Fairfax Pizza is evaluating a project that would require an initial investment in equipment of 400,000 dollars and that is expected to last for 7 years. MACRS depreciation would be used where the depreciation rates in years 1, 2, 3, and 4 are 45 percent, 33 percent, 16 percent, and 6 percent, respectively. For each year of the project, Fairfax Pizza expects relevant, incremental annual revenue associated with the project to be 628,000 dollars and relevant, incremental annual costs associated with the project to be 552,000 dollars. The tax rate is 50 percent. What is (X plus Y) if X is the relevant operating cash flow (OCF) associated with the project expected in year 1 of the project and Y is the relevant OCF associated with the project expected in year 4 of the project?

Answers

Answer:

$178,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of X and Y is shown below:-

Before that we need to do the following calculations

[tex]Depreciation\ in \ 1\ year = 45\%\times Initial\ investment[/tex]

[tex]= 0.45\times\$400,000[/tex]

= $180,000

[tex]Depreciation\ in \ 4\ year = 6\%\times Initial\ investment[/tex]

[tex]= 0.06\times\$400,000[/tex]

= $24,000

Now, Operating cash flow of X in Year 1

[tex]X = (Revenue - Cost)\times (1 - Tax \ rate) + Depreciation\times tax \ rate[/tex]

[tex]X = (\$628,000 - \$552,000)\times (1 - 0.50) + \$180,000\times 0.50[/tex]

= $38,000 + $90,000

= $128,000

and Operating cash flow of Y in Year 4

[tex]Y = (Revenue - Cost)\times (1 - Tax \ rate) + Depreciation\times tax \ rate[/tex]

[tex]Y = (\$628,000 - \$552,000)\times (1 - 0.50) + \$24,000\times 0.50[/tex]

= $38,000 + $12,000

= $50,000

[tex]X + Y = Operating\ cash\ flow\ for\ the\ year\ 1 + Operating\ cash\ flow\ for\ the\ year\ 2[/tex]

= $128,000 + $50,000

= $178,000

hence, the X + Y is $178,000

b)

y = 2x – 5


c)

y – 5 = x – 2


d)

y + 5 = 2x

Answers

Answer:

y+5 = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of an equation is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y - -5 = 2(x-0)

Find the measure of arc DF (with an explanation of how to solve please!)

Answers

Answer:

mDF = 90°

(Assuming arc mCE is 5x + 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have two chords crossing in a circle, there is a property where the angle in the cross point is equal half the sum of the corresponding arcs.

So in this case, we have:

70° = (mCE + mDF)/2

Assuming mCE is 5x + 10, we have:

70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)/2

70 = (16x + 12)/2

70 = 8x + 6

8x = 64

x = 8

So the arc mDF is:

mDF = 11x + 2 = 11 * 8 + 2 = 90°

The measure of arc DF should be 90 degrees.

Calculation of the measure of arc DF:

Here we assume arc mCE should be 5x + 10

Since mDF = 90°

Also we know that at the time when two chords should be crossing in a circle so the angle in the cross point should be equivalent to the half the sum of the arcs

So base don this.

[tex]70 = (mCE + mDF)\div 2\\\\70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)\div 2\\\\70 = (16x + 12)\div 2[/tex]

70 = 8x + 6

8x = 64

x = 8

Now the arc mDF is:

mDF = 11x + 2

= 11  (8) + 2

= 90°

Hence, The measure of arc DF should be 90 degrees.

Bryan and his son, and Elton and his son all went fishing. Bryan caught as many fish as his son and Elton caught three times as many fish as his son. All together, they caught 25 fish. How many fish did Bryan catch?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a word problem, therefore to solve it the statement have to be writing in form of an equation and then solved.

Let the number of fishes caught by Bryan's son be x fishes. Since Bryan caught as many fish as his son, Bryan caught x fishes

Let the number of fishes caught by Elton's son be y fishes. Since Elton caught three times as many fish as his son, Bryan caught 3y fishes

All together, they caught 25 fish

Therefore it can be represented by the equation:

x + x + y + 3y = 25

2x + 4y = 25

2x = 25 - 4y

x = (25 - 4y)/2

The number of fish caught by Bryan is half of the difference between the total fish caught and four times the number of fish caught by Elton son

Which statements describe characteristics of deposition? Check all that apply.

A) Several factors affect how sediment settles.

B) Sediment is added to a new surface location.

C) Moving water affects where sediment travels.

D) Rocks are broken into smaller particles.

E) Sediments are carried by a transport medium.

If this was not your question, then you can still relate to this, as the answer would be same.

EXPLANATION:

Sediments are a mixture of different elements that are usually carried by water, air or even ice. This mixture may contain organic and inorganic particles. Several factors effect the flow and settlement of sediments, but as discussed above, they always need an transport medium to travel, and moving water serves as one.

Moving water affects where sediment travels.

Deposition is the process of accumulation of loose mineral material and organic residues on the land surface and at the bottom of water bodies.  

It occurs at the foot of the slopes, in valleys and in other negative landforms of various sizes: from sinkholes to large troughs and depressions of tectonic origin, where the accumulating deposits form thick strata that gradually turn into sedimentary rocks.

At the bottom of oceans, seas, lakes and other bodies of water, deposition is the most important exogenous process.

What is Square root?

A square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number. In mathematics, a square root of a number x is a number y such that y² = x; in other words, a number y whose square is x.

For example, 4 and −4 are square roots of 16, because 4² = ² = 16.

here, we have.

z^2=z*z

when z = 0.7
