8. Colleen times her morning commute such that there is an equal likelihood that she will arrive early or late to work on any given day. If she always arrives either early or late, what is the probability that Colleen will arrive late to work no more than twice during a five-day workweek

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Case I :

If Collen is late on [tex]0[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} $[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32}[/tex]

Case II :

When Collen is late on [tex]1[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times ^5C_1$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} \times 5$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{5}{32}[/tex]

Case III :

When Collen was late on [tex]2[/tex] out of [tex]5[/tex] days.

[tex]$= \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times ^5C_2$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} \times 10$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{5}{16}[/tex]

Therefore, the [tex]\text{probability}[/tex] that Collen will arrive late to work no more than [tex]\text{twice}[/tex] during a [tex]\text{five day workweek}[/tex] is :

[tex]$=\frac{1}{32} + \frac{5}{32} + \frac{5}{16} $[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{1}{2}$[/tex]

Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence.

On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).

What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio

Answers

Answer:

Common Ratio = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points: (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25)

Required

Determine the common ratio

The points can be rewritten as:

x --- f(x)

1 ---- 1

2 --- 2.5

3 ---- 6.25

The data under the x column are the domain of the function and in this case,  they are not needed;

To calculate common ration, Lena should use data in function f(x) column

Common ratio is calculated by dividing a term by the previous term;

Hence;

Common Ratio = 2.5/1 or 6.25/2.5

Common Ratio = 2.5 or 2.5

Notice that, the results are the same;

Hence, the usable common ratio is 2.5

Answer: 2.5 or "C"

Two consecutive even whole numbers have a product of 360. What is the smaller of the
two number?

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this answer you would need to use the formula x(x+2) = 360 where x is an even number.  This is the formula because any number plus 2 equals the next consecutive, even whole number.   If we look at the factors of 360 we see the factors-

360: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360.

If we look through all of the factors 18 and 20 are the only ones with a 2 number difference.

Next, if we plug 18 into the equation:

x(x+2) =360

18(18+2) = 360

324+36 = 360

360 = 360

Since the equation works, x = 18.

A helicopter hovers 500 feet
above a small island. The
figure shows that the angle of
depression from the helicopter
to point P is 48º. How far off
the coast, to the nearest foot, is
the island?
d ft
(Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

d = 450 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, we can find the angle in the triangle at the point of the helicopter, the angle opposite [tex]d[/tex]. Subtract 48° from 90°:

90-48=42

Now, given that this is a right triangle and we have an angle and the side adjacent the angle, we can solve for [tex]d[/tex] by using the tangent ratio:

[tex]tan\theta=\displaystyle \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Replace θ with 42°, "opposite" with [tex]d[/tex], and "adjacent" with 500 ft:

[tex]tan(42)=\displaystyle \frac{d}{500}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 500 to isolate [tex]d[/tex]:

[tex]500*tan(42)=d\\450=d[/tex]

Therefore, d = 450 ft when rounded to the nearest whole number.

I hope this helps!

find the probability of picking a red marble and a green marble when 2 marbles are picked (without replacement)from a bag containing 6 red and 6 green marbles.}

Answers

p = 6/11.

So we have a bag that contains 6 red marbles and 6 green marbles.

Then the total number of marbles that are in that bag is:

6 + 6  = 12

There are 12 marbles in the bag, and we assume that all marbles have the same probability of being randomly drawn.

Now we draw two marbles, we want to find the probability that one is red and the other is green.

The first marble that we draw does not matter, as we just want the second marble to be of the other color.

So, suppose we draw a green one in the first attempt.

Then in the second draw, we need to get a red one.

The probability of drawing a red one will be equal to the quotient between the red marbles in the bag (6) and the total number of marbles in the bag (12 - 1 = 11, because one green marble was drawn already)

Then the probability is:

p = 6/11.

Notice that would be the exact same case if the first marble was red.

Then we can conclude that the probability of getting two marbles of different colors is:

p = 6/11.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (–12, –8) and (–17, –16)?

Answers

Answer:

firstly find the gradient given by the equation

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

in this case x1 is -12,x2 is -17, y1 is -8 and y2 is-16

m=-16+8/-17+12

=-8/-5 or1.6

then use the equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+8=1.6(x+12)

y+8=1.6x+19.2

y=1.6x+11.2

One of the factors of x² + y² + 2xy - z² is ?​

Answers

Answer:

x + y + z.

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + y² + 2xy - z²

= (x + y)^2 - z^2

This is the difference between 2 squares so the factors are:

(x + y + z) and (a + y - z).

Answer: The factors are (x+y+z) and (x+y-z)

In other words, it factors to (x+y+z)*(x+y-z)

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

Work Shown:

[tex]x^2 + y^2 + 2xy - z^2\\\\(x^2 + 2xy + y^2) - z^2\\\\(x+y)^2 - z^2\\\\(x+y+z)(x+y-z)\\\\[/tex]

Notes:

In the third step, I used the rule (A+B)^2 = A^2+2AB+B^2. For this, A = x and B = y.In the last step, I used the difference of squares factoring rule A^2-B^2 = (A+B)(A-B). In this case, A = x+y and B = z.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3p + 2p + 8 - 3 = 15

Combine like terms. In essence, if two number have the same variable, then one can perform operations between their coefficients. If two number have no variables, then these two terms are also like terms. After combing like terms, simplify the expression.

3p + 2p + 8 - 3 = 15

5p + 8 - 3 = 15

5p + 5 = 15

Inverse operations,

5p + 5 = 15

5p = 10

p = 2

Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If all these hot dogs were laid end to end they
would circle the earth 21.5 times. If the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,860 miles, and one mile is
5,280 feet, find the length (in inches) of each hot dog. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hot dogs eaten = 7 000 000 000

Circumference of the earth = 24 860 miles

21.5 times the circumference of the Earth = 21.5 x 24 860 miles

                                                = 534490 miles

But,

1 mile = 5280 feet

So that,

534490 miles = X

X = 5280 x 534490

   = 287707200 feet

Also,

1 feet = 12 inches

Then,

287707200 feet = Y

Y = 12 x 287707200

   = 3452486400 inches

Thus,

the length of each hot dog = [tex]\frac{3452486400}{7000000000}[/tex]

                     = 0.4932

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.
