A family has four children. What is the probability that two children are girls and two are boys? Assume the the probability of having a boy (or a girl) is 50%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:The first issue one most notice is the words “at least” We are trying to find the probability of at least 2 girls.

The five possible outcomes for girls are 0,1,2,3,4. The odds of 1 girl out of 4 is .25 and the odds of 1 boy out of 4 is .25 (same as the odds of 3 out of 4 girls). Therefore the odds of 1 OR 3 girls must be .5 because 1 girl and 3 girls each has a .25 probability. If the probability of (1 OR 3 girls) equals .5, then the probability of 2 girls must be a different number.

The probability of 2 or more girls, is the sum of the probability of 4 girls (.06125)(—-.5 to the 4th power—— ), plus the probability of 3 girls (.25)——(the same as the probability of 1 boy)—- plus the probability of 2 girls. Since we know the probability of zero boys is .0625 (again, .5 to the 4th power) and the probability of 1 boy is .25 (the same as the probability of 3 girls )———then the probability of 2 girls is ((1 minus (the sum of the probability of 0 OR 1 boys) plus the (sum of the probability of 3 or 4 girls)), or 1-((.0625+.25)+(.0625+.25)), or .375. We had to derive the probability of two from the other known probabilities. Therefore .375+.25+.0625=.6875 is the probability of both AT LEAST 2 girls and also NO MORE than 2 boys. Notice this adds up to 1.375 because the probability of the central number 2 (i.e., .375) appears on both sides.

I NEED HELP ASAP FOR THIS MATH QUESTION

Answers

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to isolate the variable you are look for, 'l'. First subtract [pi]L from both sides. Then subtract S from both sides.

-[pi]L+S=[pi]r(superscript)2 ->

-[pi]L=[pi]r(superscript)2-S

Now, since you have your variable 'l', you want to remove the [pi] away from your variable. To do this, multiply by negative 1 divided by pi, or -1/[pi].

L=S-r(superscript)2.

Therefore, the answer is C.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]s = \pi .l \: + \pi. {r}^{2} [/tex]

Make the term including 'l' stand alone.

[tex]s - \pi. {r }^{2} = \pi.l[/tex]

Now make L stand alone by dividing through by pi.

[tex] \frac{s - \pi. {r}^{2} }{\pi} = l[/tex]

This is the same as

[tex] \frac{s}{\pi} - {r}^{2} = l[/tex]

Which angle between 90 and 270 has the same sine value as 60°?


Which angle between –180° and 0 has the same cosine value as 290°?


degrees

Answers

Answer:

(i) 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

(i)

sine 90 = 1

sine 120 = 0.87 (rounded up to two decimal places)

sine 150 = 0.5

sine 180 = 0

sine 210 = -0.5

sine 240 =  -0.87 (rounded up to two decimal places)

sine 270 = -1

sine 60 =  0.87 (rounded up to two decimal places)

So the angle x such that 90° < x < 270° that has the same sine value as 60° is 120°

What is a expression? What is a mathematical equation? What is Equation modelling ?

A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.

Given is Sondra receives an allowance of $10 per week, plus an additional $5 for each chore she completes.

Assume that her weekly earnings is $y. Assume she does [x] extra chores in a week. Then, we can model her earnings by the equation -

y = 5x + 10.

Refer to the graph attached.

Therefore, the graph representing Sondra's weekly earnings is plotted and attached.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First we multiply the the length of each length of rope by the number of lengths of rope (try saying that five times fast).

6 3/4×13=87 3/4

Now, we divide this by 20 to see how much rope each person gets.

87 3/4÷20= 4 31/80

Therefore, each person has 4 31/80 or 4.3875 meters of rope.

Given that p=x^2-y^2/x^2+xy
I. Express p in the simplest form
ii. Find the value of p, if x=-4 and y=-6

Answers

Answer:

When x = -4 and y = -6, p = 37.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p = x² - y²/x² + x·y, we have;

p = (x² × x² -y² + x·y×x²)/x²

p = (x²⁺² - y² + x¹⁺² × y)/x²

p = (x⁴ - y² + x³·y)/x²

Therefore, p in the simplest form is given as follows;

[tex]p = \dfrac{x^4 - y^2 + x^3 \cdot y }{x^2}[/tex]

To find the value of p when x = -4 and y = -6, we plug in the value of x and y into the above equation to get the following equation;

[tex]p = \dfrac{(-4)^4 - (-6)^2 + (-4)^3 \cdot (-6) }{(-4)^2} = 37.75[/tex]

Therefore, the value of p when x = -4 and y = -6 is equal to 37.75.

You have to create 3 functions to make hills on a grap

Requirements are in the photo.
(ignore graphs)

4. Write equations for three hills that do meet the requirements. Sketch them on one axis. (For the
purposes of this exercise, this is a sketch, so the steepness and minimums and maximums of the
graphs do not need to be exact). (6 points: 1 point for each equation, 1 point for each sketched curve)

Answers

Answer:

Hill 1: F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 2: F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 3: F(x) = 4(x - 2)(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hill 1

You must go up and down to make a peak, so your function must cross the x-axis six times. You need six zeros.

Also, the end behaviour must have F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x ⟶ -∞ and F(x) ⟶ -∞ as x⟶ ∞. You need a negative sign in front of the binomials.

One possibility is

F(x)  = -(x + 4)(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 4)

Hill 2

Multiplying the polynomial by -½ makes the slopes shallower. You must multiply by -2 to make them steeper. Of course, flipping the hills converts them into valleys.

Adding 3 to a function shifts it up three units. To shift it three units to the right, you must subtract 3 from each value of x.

The transformed function should be

F(x)  = -2(x +1)(x)(x -2)(x -3)(x - 6)(x - 7)

Hill 3

To make a shallow parabola, you must divide it by a number. The factor should be ¼, not 4.

The zeroes of your picture run from -4 to +7.

One of the zeros of your parabola is +5 (2 less than 7).

Rather than put the other zero at ½, I would put it at (2 more than -4) to make the parabola cover the picture more evenly.

The function could be

F(x) = ¼(x - 2)(x + 5).

In the image below, Hill 1 is red, Hill 2 is blue, and Hill 3 is the shallow black parabola.

Solve for 'x' in both of the following problems. Show all your work/explanations on your own paper and then submit a picture of your work and answers in the dropbox below.

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. <B is an inscribed angle in a circle which intercepts arc AC.

Therefore, m<B = ½ of m<AC

B = ½ * 128° = 64°

x = 180 - (64 + 43)

x = 180 - 107 = 73°

2. The circle given shows two chords intersecting at point H.

According to intersecting chords theorem, the products of the segments formed by one chord equals the product of the segments formed by the other.

Therefore,

[tex] 10*x = 14*5 [/tex]

Solve for x

[tex] 10x = 70 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 10

The transformations involve changes only in the orientation and location of the pre-image, which remain rigid, therefore, there are no changes in the segment lengths or angle dimensions

Therefore, the correct option is,  both angle measures and segment lengths.

Answers

Answer:

Percent decrease in mobile = 19.17 % (Approx)

Find:

Percent decrease in mobile

Computation:

Cost of mobile = $240(85/100)

Cost of mobile = $204

Percent decrease in mobile = [$46 - 15%]204

Percent decrease in mobile = 19.17 % (Approx)
