10-1: Compound Probability

A desk drawer contains 5 red pens, 6 blue pens, 3 black pens, 24 silver paper clips, and 16 white paper clips. If you select a pen and

a paper clip at random, what is the probability that you select a black pen and a white paper clip? Round to the nearest tenth of a

percent

O A. 11.72%

B. 12.12%

C. 9.9%

O D. 8.6%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of black pens  =     3/14

Probability of white paper clips = 16/40

to find the probability of black pen and white paper clip we have to multiply these two probability.

3/14 x 16/40 = 48/560 = 8.6

two sides of a triangle have lengths 7 and 17. find the range of possible length for the third side

Answers

by using Pythagoras theorem c2= a2 + b2

so let's say c= 17 and a= 7, let's calculate for b

(17)^2 = (7)^2 + b2

289= 49+b2

289 - 49 = b2

240 =b2

√249 = b

b = 15 . 49

If m angle ABF = (6x + 26)°, m angle EBF = (2x - 9)° , and m angle ABE = (11x - 31)° , find M angle ABF. ​

Answers

Answer:

122

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle ABE = angle ABF + EBF

11x - 31 = 6x + 26 + 2x - 9 add like terms

11x - 31 = 8x + 17 transfer like terms to the same side of the equation

11x - 8x = 17 + 31 add/subtract like terms

3x = 48 divide both sides by 3

x = 16 now replace x with 16 in the equation

16*6+26 = 122

linesl,mand n are parallel to each other and p is a transversal​

Answers

Answer:  126 degrees

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

Explanation:

Since L and M are parallel lines, this means x+y = 180 due to the same side interior angles theorem. Some books refer to these angles as consecutive interior angles.

If x+y = 180, then y = 180-x.

Plug this into the equation your teacher gave you

x/y = 3/7

x/(180-x) = 3/7

7x = 3(180-x) ... cross multiply

7x = 540 - 3x

7x+3x = 540

10x = 540

x = 540/10

x = 54

Use this to find y

y = 180-x

y = 180-54

y = 126

Then notice how x/y = 54/126 = 3/7, which helps confirm we have the correct x and y values.

Divide both parts of the first fraction by 18 to fully reduce.

Now because angles y and z are alternate exterior angles, this must mean z = y = 126 degrees

x = -4 is the correct answer

In order for the parallelogram to be a rhombus, x=? (7x+13)º

Answers

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular meaning that they create 90 degree angles

If they create 90 degree angles then 7x + 13 = 90

( Note that we've just created an equation that we can use to solve for x )

We now solve for x algebraically using the equation we created

7x + 13 = 90

Step 1 Subtract 13 from both sides

7x = 77

Divide both sides by 7

x = 11

The function f(x) = One-sixth (two-fifths) Superscript x is reflected across the y-axis to create the function g(x). Which ordered pair is on g(x)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex](-3,4/375)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^x[/tex]

Reflection: Across y-axis

Required

The ordered pair on g(x)

The rule of reflection across y-axis is:

[tex](x,y) = (-x,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]g(x) = f(-x)[/tex]

f(-x) is:

[tex]f(-x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]g(x) = f(-x)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

From the options (missing in the question), the ordered pair is:

[tex](-3,4/375)[/tex]

To check this, we have:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{--3[/tex]

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{3[/tex]

Expand

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{8}{125})[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{3}(\frac{4}{125})[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{4}{375}[/tex]

Sonia received a statement on her Certificate of Deposit showing that her investment had returned $4,320 over its life. If the Certificate of Deposit pays a simple interest rate of 4.8% and her initial investment was $12,000, how long had the money been invested?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -7.5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Principle amount = 12000

Interest = 4320

time = ?

rate = 4.8 simple interest

Solution:

We know that simple Interest I = (P*t*r)/100

then t = I*100/p*r

putting values in formula:

t = 4320*100/4.8*12000

= 432000/57,600

= 7.5 years

Find the volume of this square based pyramid. 3 cm 2 cm 2 cm. V = ? cm3.

I put V = 1/3 x 2 x 3. V = 2.

What did I do wrong?

Answers

The volume of square based pyramid is 4cm³.

What is Square Pyramid ?

A square pyramid is a pyramid, in geometry, that has a square base and four lateral faces.

How to find the volume of Square Pyramid ?

To find the volume of a pyramid, we multiply the area of its base with the height of the pyramid, and divide by 3.

V=1/ 3×B²×h

where B is the area of the base of the pyramid, and h is its height.

Now in the question,

b = 2cm; h = 3cm

Volume = (1/3 x 2x2x3)cm³

= (1x2x2)cm³

= 4cm³

Therefore, the volume of square based pyramid is 4cm³

If x is the additive inverse then

x + (-9/2) = 0

x - 9/2 = 0

so x = 9/2.
