On a shelf there are 6 novels, 8 poetry books, and 4 mystery books. What is the probability that person A chooses a novel,then a mystery and walks away, then person B picks a mystery and a poetry book?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2/255

Step-by-step explanation:

In total, there are 18 books on the shelf.

The probability that person A will pick a novel is 6/18 = 1/3

There are now 5 novels and 17 total books on the shelf

The probability that person A then picks a mystery is 4/17.

There are now 3 mysteries and 16 total books on the shelf.

The probability that person B then picks a mystery is 3/16.

There are now 2 mysteries and 15 total books on the shelf.

The probability that person B then picks a poetry book is 8/15.

The probability that all these events occur back to back is the product of their individual probabilities. Therefore, the probability is:

1/3 * 4/17 * 3/16 * 8/15 = 2/255

Solve the equation. y + 6 = –3y + 26

Answers

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 6 = –3y + 26

Add 3y to each side

y+3y + 6 = –3y+3y + 26

4y +6 = 26

Subtract 6 from each side

4y+6-6 = 26-6

4y = 20

Divide by 4

4y/4 = 20/4

y = 5

The solution of y in the equation y + 6 = - 3y + 26 is,

⇒ y = 5

We have to given that;

Expression is,

⇒ y + 6 = - 3y + 26

Now, We can simplify as;

y + 6 = - 3y + 26

Add 3y to each side

y + 3y + 6 = - 3y + 3y + 26

4y + 6 = 26

Subtract 6 from each side

4y + 6 - 6 = 26 - 6

4y = 20

Divide by 4

4y/4 = 20/4

y = 5

Thus, The solution of y in the equation y + 6 = - 3y + 26 is,

⇒ y = 5

While Diane was visiting her sister in Kingwood, she bought a bunch of balloons that was marked down 20% from an original price of $5. If the sales tax in Kingwood is 8.5%, what was the total cost of the bunch of balloons? $

Answers

Answer:

$4.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

The original price: $5Discount : 20% Tax: 8.5%

We can find out the actual price that Diane bought a bunch of balloons that was marked down 20% is:

= the original price (100% - discount rate)

= 5(100% -20%)

= $4

The tax amount she need to pay is:

= The actual price*tax rate

= $4*8.5%

= $0.34

=> the total cost of the bunch of balloons :

The actual price + tax price

= $4 + $0.34

= $4.34

Hope it will find you well.

Suppose a projectile is fired from a cannon with velocity v0 and angle of elevation θ. The horizontal distance Rθ it travels (in feet) is given by the following.

Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer(s) to the nearest hundredth of a radian. (If there is more than one answer, enter additional answers with the "or" button.)

Answers

Answer:

0.25 rad to the nearest hundredth radian

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

Suppose a projectile is fired from a cannon with velocity vo and angle of elevation (theta). The horizontal distance R(θ) it travels (in feet) is given by the following.  

R(θ) = v₀²sin2θ/32

If vo=80ft/s what angel (theta) (in radians) should be used to hit a target on the ground 95 feet in front of the cannon?

Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer(s) to the nearest hundredth of a radian.

(θ)= ?rad

Solution

R(θ) = v₀²sin2θ/32

If v₀ = 80 ft/s and R(θ) = 95 ft

θ = [sin⁻¹(32R(θ)/v₀²)]/2

= [sin⁻¹(32 × 95/80²)]/2

=  [sin⁻¹(3040/6400)]/2

=  [sin⁻¹(0.475)]/2

= 28.36°/2

= 14.18°

Converting 14.18° to radians, we have 14.18° × π/180° = 0.2475 rad

= 0.25 rad to the nearest hundredth radian

Answer:

Theta= 0.32 rad

find the midpoint of A and b where A has coordinates (2,7) and B has coordinates (6.3)

Answers

Answer:

Midpoint of A and B is (4,5).

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on the coordinate plane

then midpoint is given by (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

_____________________________________

here two points are  (2,7)  and (6,3)

substituting this value in  (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

we have,

midpoint  (2+6)/2, (7+3)/2

  = 8/2 , 10/2 = 4,5

Midpoint of A and B is (4,5).

shoe store uses a 40% markup for all of the shoes it sells. What would be the selling price of a pair of shoes that has a wholesale cost of ​$69

Answers

Answer: $96.60  

Step-by-step explanation:

40% * 69 = markup price

0.4 * 69 = 27.6

Now add it to the wholesale price which is the price the store bought the shoes.

$27.6 + $69 = $96.60  

or

100% + 40% = 140%

140% of 69 = ?

1.4 * 69 = $96.60

Suppose that you placed $500 in a bank account at the end of each year for the next 10 years. How much would be in that account at the end of the tenth year if the deposits earned an annual rate of return of 8% each year?

Answers

Answer:

5400$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to figure out 8% of 500$.

That is 40$.

Now, you need to multiply 500 by 10, because there are 10 years.

That is 5000$

Now, we need to add the 8% that was added each year. So we do 40$ times 10.  400$

Then we add the 5000 and 400.

The answer is 5400$

Kim and Josh can clean a house together in 3 hours. If it takes Kim 7 hours to clean the house by herself, how long would it take Josh to clean the house alone? Leave your answer in improper fraction form, then convert to a decimal.

Answers

Answer: 28/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Kim and Josh can clean a house together in 3 hours while Kim alone uses 7 hours to clean the house by herself.

Kim's hourly rate will be to clean the house = 1/7 per hour.

In 4 hours:

Kim will have completed = 1/7 × 4 = 4/7 of the house

This mean that Josh completes:

1 - 4/7 = 3/7 of the house.

Josh's hourly rate will now be:

1/4 × 3/7 = 3/28 of the house per hour.

From Josh to clean the house alone, he will use:

= 1 ÷ (3/28)

= 1 × 28/3

= 28/3 hours

Josh will use 28/3 hours to clean the house alone?

Brian & Paul share a lottery win of £7800 in the ratio 1 : 4. Brian then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 1 : 6 : 3. How much more does his wife get over their son?

Answers

Answer:

The wife gets £468 over the son

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we shall calculate the total amount Brian made from from what he and Paul won.

The ratio is 1:4, meaning for every 2 part Brain takes, Paul takes 4

Paul’s share is thus 1/5 * 7800 = 7800/5 = £1560

Now we have another ratio for sharing the amount Brain has at home.

The total ratio here is 1+6+3 = 10

The share of the wife will be 6/10 * 1560 = 6 * 156 = 936

The son share is half of this which is 936/2 = 468

The difference between their shares is £936-£468 = £468

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are looking for is the simplification of f(x) divided by g(x). This can be easily accomplished with synthetic division. If we are dividig the quadratic by x - 1, we will use the fact that if x - 1 = 0, then x = 1. We will put that 1 outside the "box" and put the coefficients from the quadratic inside the "box" and do the division synthetically. The coefficients on the quadratic terms are 2, 1, and -3:

1 | 2     1     -3

___________

We begin by bringing down the first number, a 2, and multiplying it by the 1 in the box and putting the product up under the 1:

1 |  2     1     -3

           2        

    2

Now we add down the column:

1 |  2     1     -3

          2        

    2     3

Now multiply the 3 by the 1 outside the box and put that product up under the -3 and then add down that column:

1 |  2     1     -3

          2     3

   2      3     0

Because we have a 0 remainder, that means that the quadratic was evenly divisible by x - 1.  What we have left is called a depressed polynomial. It takes on the x values at one degree lesser than what we started with. Namely, it will be 2x + 3.

2x + 3 is what we get when we divide the quadratic by x - 1. BUT because we started off with x - 1 in the denominator, even though we divided it away to simplify, we still have to take into account that the value of 1 makes the denomiator go to 0, which is never allowed in math.

So the answer you want is the first one!

 

A rectangle has a width that is 3cm less than its length. The perimeter of the rectangle is 22cm. What is the length and width of the rectangle? Please use problem solving algebraically and explain your answer so i can give you the brainliest. :)

Answers

Answer:

The length is 7 and the width is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = l-3

P =2( l+w)

22 = 2( l+ l-3)

Combine like terms

22 = 2(2l-3)

Divide each side by 2

22/2 = 2/2 (2l-3)

11 = 2l-3

Add 3 to each  side

11+3 = 2l-3+3

14 = 2l

Divide each side by 2

14/2 =2l/2

7 = l

Now find w

w = l-3

w = 7-3 = 4

Answer: length = 7 cm

Width = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 (l + w)

22 = 2 ( l + l-3)

22=2 (2l - 3)

22=4l - 6

22+6 = 4l

4l = 28/4

l = 28/1 = 7 = length

Width = 7-3 = 4
