a basket contains 16 apples, of which two are rotten. a sample of three apples is selected at random. what is the probability that the sample contains two rotten apples?

Answer:

  x = -0.5, -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the solution to 4x² +16x +7 = 0 using the quadratic formula.

Comparing the given equation to the standard form quadratic, you can identify the coefficients as ...

Substituting these values into the quadratic formula, you find the solutions to be ...

  [tex]x=\dfrac{-16\pm\sqrt{16^2-4(4)(7)}}{2(4)}=\dfrac{-16\pm\sqrt{144}}{8}\\\\x=\dfrac{-16\pm12}{8}=\dfrac{-4\pm3}{2}\\\\x=\left\{-\dfrac{7}{2},\ -\dfrac{1}{2}\right\}[/tex]

The possible values of x are -3.5 and -0.5.

The correct algebraic form is b. k/-9 + 7 = 17

There are four components in division namely divisor, dividend, quotient and remainder. The significance and meaning of each is evident from their name. The dividend is the number that is being divided. And the number which is used to divide the dividend is divisor. The result of dividing the dividend by divisor is termed as quotient. Remainder is the left over amount.

So, multiplying the divisor and quotient and adding the product with remainder will give us the desired algebraic expression. Seven is remainder. The quotient of k and negative nine implies k is dividend and negative nine is divisor. So, algebraic expression -> k/-9 + 7 = 17

If we compute a 92% confidence interval in  excel command the critical value will be 1.750686.

Level of confidence c = 0.92

level of significance α = 1 - c = 0.08

A 92% confidence interval has goes from  8/2 = 4% to 100%–(8/2)% = 96%

Leaving 92% in the middle (96%–4%) = 92 %

So look up z-score for 96% or p =0.96

The two closest value in a z-table are

P(z< 1.75) = 0.95994

P(z< 1.76) = 0.96080

Based on this online table

( https://www.math.arizona.edu/~rsims/ma464/standardnormaltable.pdf )

So critical value Z = 1.75 is the closest value , but just barely.

But if you want a more accurate , use the normal function on Excel or from an online calculator or interpolate

If you interpolate

1.75 + (0.96–0.959954)*0.01/ (0.9608–0.95994)

Critical value Z= 1.750535

If you round to four digits,  critical value Z = 1.7505

So the interpolation isn’t that much more accurate

Excel function says critical value Z= 1.750686

Answer:

The expression "2(x + 6) + x" would make the equation unsolvable (i.e., no solution),

Step-by-step explanation:

This initially appears to be an odd question, since one might imagine that there would always be a solution for x, no matter what is put into the "box."  But lets take a look and see what the possible solutions look like when compared to the original equation.  First, rearrange the reference equation so that we can better compared it to the answer options:

3 (x + 1) + 9 = box

3x + 3 + 9 = box

3x + 12 = box

3(x + 4) = box

Now look through the answer options and evaluate how, or if, they may be able to prevent us from finding an actual value or x::

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

     Option[Box]    Reformatted     Complete Equation   Unsolvable?

                                                            3x + 12 = 3x +12    

                                                               0 = 0                        YES*

                                                              3x + 12 = 11x - 12

                                                               -8x = -24

                                                                   x = 3                        NO

                                                               2(x+4) = 0

                                                                    x = -4                      NO    

*  The YES answer means that this expression would make the answer unsolvable.  Note that the expressions on both sides of the equation are equal.  So there is no one answer.  Any choice of a value for x will always be a valid solution.  A singkle value is not possible with this equation.

Answer:

[tex]y = \dfrac{3x}{2} -3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we identify the equation of the line in slope intercept form, we must identify the slope intercept form equation. The slope intercept form equation is y = (m)x + (b) ⇒ m = slope of line; b = y-intercept of line.

To identify the equation of the line shown in slope intercept form, according to the slope intercept form equation, we need to identify the slope of the line and the y-intercept of the line. The slope of a line is the rate of a line, which advances up/down/side-to-side at a constant rate. The y-intercept of a line is the intersection of the line at the y-axis.

There is a specific formula for identifying the slope:

[tex]\boxed{\text{Slope} = \dfrac{\text{y coordinate of 2nd point - y coordinate of 1st point}}{\text{x coordinate of 2nd point - x coordinate of 1st point}}}[/tex]

Some facts about slope: The slope of a line will also depend on the graph. If the graph ascends upward to somewhere in Quadrant 1 or 2, the slope of the line will be positive. If the graph descends downward to somewhere in Quadrant 3 or 4, the slope will be negative. If the line horizontal and it passes perfectly through the x-axis, the slope of the line is 0. If the slope of the line is vertical, then the slope will be undefined.

Location of plotted points: First point: (0, -3); Second point: (2, 0)

Let us now identify the x and y coordinates of the plotted points:

[tex]\boxed{\text{y-coordinate of 2nd point = 0; y-coordinate of 1st point = -3}} \\ \boxed{\text{x-coordinate of 2nd point = 2; x-coordinate of 1st point = 0 }}[/tex]

Plug the coordinates into the slope formula to determine the slope:

[tex]\implies {\text{Slope} = \dfrac{\text{0 - (-3)}}{\text{2 - 0}}} = \dfrac{0 + 3}{2} = \dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

Plug the slope of the line into the slope intercept form equation:

[tex]\implies y = (m)x + (b)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y = \huge\text{(}\dfrac{3}{2} \huge\text{)}x + (b)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y = \dfrac{3(x)}{2} + b[/tex]

Let us plug any point (that is on the line) for x and y. This will help us find the y-intercept (b). I will plug in the first point because it is my preference.

[tex]\implies y = \dfrac{3(x)}{2} + b[/tex]

[tex]\implies -3 = \dfrac{3(0)}{2} + b \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ [\text{First point: (0, -3)} \implies x = 0; y = -3]}[/tex]

[tex]\implies -3 = 0 + b[/tex]

[tex]\implies -3 = b[/tex]

Finally, let us substitute the slope of the line and the y-intercept of the line into the slope-intercept form equation. Then, we can simplify both sides of the equation and isolate the y-variable completely on the other side.

[tex]\implies y = (m)x + (b)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y = \huge\text{(}\dfrac{3}{2} \huge\text{)}x + (-3)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y = \dfrac{3x}{2} -3[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line in slope intercept form is y = 3x/2 - 3.

Use the distributive property to multiply −2.397 by 5.968x−0.27.

1.657−14.305296x+0.64719=4.193x−3

Add 1.657 and 0.64719 to get 2.30419.

Answer: ∠1 = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

      There are a few steps we will take to solve this problem. In each step, I will write an equation to help us solve, then use inverse operations to solve.

      First, we will use the exterior angles theorem to find the measurement of ∠3 (this will help us solve for ∠2, then for ∠1).

89° = 51° + ∠3

∠3 = 38°

      Next, we will find the measurement of ∠2 since we know ∠2 plus ∠3 is 90 degrees, as shown by the perpendicular lines and the box.

90° = ∠3 + ∠2

90° = 38° + ∠2

∠2 = 52°

      Lastly, we will solve for ∠1. We know that there are 180 degrees in a triangle.

180° = 38° + ∠1 + ∠2

180° = 38° + ∠1 + 52°

180° = 90° + ∠1

∠1 = 90°

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by finding angle 5

180 - 89 = 91  Supplemental angles

Then I found angle 3

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180

180-89-91 = 38

Angle2 and 3 are complementary angles

90- 38 =52

the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180

Angle 1

y=5 is a horizontal line where every x value lands on y=5 (Zero slope)

Even though the slopes are not numbers they can still be negative reciprocals. The lines are indeed perpendicular and thus the slopes are negative reciprocals. The relationship between undefined slopes and zero slopes is negative reciprocals because 0/1 cannot be inversed because anything divided by 0 is undefined.

A transversal is a line in geometry that connects two lines in the same plane at two different places. When determining whether two or more other lines in the Euclidean plane are parallel, transversals are important. Consecutive interior angles, consecutive exterior angles, corresponding angles, and alternate angles are only a few examples of the several pairings of angles that can be formed when a transversal intersects two lines.
