Work out the probability of getting a total that is prime

Answers

Answer 1

The sum of the faces is going to fall in the range {2, 3, 4, …, 12}, which contains five prime numbers {2, 3, 5, 7, 11}. You can only have one sum at a time, so these outcomes are mutually exclusive. Then

Pr[sum is prime] = Pr[sum = 2] + Pr[sum = 3] + … + Pr[sum = 11]

• sum = 2 can only happen in 1 way (1 + 1)

• sum = 3 can happen in 2 ways (1 + 2, 2 + 1)

• sum = 5 can happen in 4 ways (1 + 4, 2 + 3, 3 + 2, 4 + 1)

• sum = 7 can happen in 6 ways (1 + 6, 2 + 5, …, 6 + 1)

• sum = 11 can happen in 2 ways (5 + 6, 6 + 5)

There are a total of 6² = 36 possible sums that can be rolled, each with probability 1/36 of occurring, so the probability of getting a prime sum is

(1 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 2)/36 = 15/36 = 5/12

A geometric series has three terms. The sum of the three terms is 42. The third term is 3.2 times the sum of the other two. What are the terms?

Answer is : 2,8, and 32
Please show steps because I'm very confused

Answers

Let x be the first term in the geometric sequence. Then the next two terms in the sequence are xr and xr ², where r is some constant. (This is the defining characteristic of geometric sequences.)

The sum of the first three terms is 42, so

x + xr + xr ² = 42

x (1 + r + r ²) = 42

The third term is 3.2 times the sum of the other two, so that

xr ² = 3.2 (x + xr )

Solve the second equation for r :

xr ² = 3.2 x (1 + r )

We can divide both sides by x since x ≠ 0. (This is obvious, since if x was zero, then all three terms in the sequence would be 0.)

r ² = 3.2 (1 + r )

r ² = 3.2 + 3.2r

r ² - 3.2r - 3.2 = 0

r ² - 16/5 r - 16/5 = 0

5r ² - 16r - 16 = 0

(5r + 4) (r - 4) = 0

==>   r = -4/5 or r = 4

Since there are two possible values of r that might work, there are two possible sequences that meet the criteria.

Plug either of these solutions into the first equation:

r = -4/5   ==>   x (1 + (-4/5) + (-4/5)²) = 42

… … … … … …   21/25 x = 42

… … … … … …   x = 50

r = 4   ==>   x (1 + 4 + 4²) = 42

… … … … …  21x = 42

… … … … …  x = 2

Then the two possible answers would be

• if r = -4/5, then the three terms are {50, -40, 32}

• if r = 4, then they are {2, 8, 32}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric series means that we multiply one number by a common ratio to get the second number. Let's say our first number is x, and our common ratio is y. We can write the first term is x, and to get the second number, we multiply x by our common ratio, y. For example, if 5 was the first number and 2 was the common ratio, the second number would be 5*2 = 10, and the third would be 10 * 2 = 20.

For our question, the first number is x, the second is x*y, and the third is x*y*y = x*y²

The sum of these three terms is 42, so we can say

x + x*y + x*y² = 42

Next, the third term is equal to 3.2 times the sum of the other two. First, we have 3.2 times something. That something is the sum of the other two, so we must prioritize calculating the sum of the first two numbers, and then multiply that by 3.2 to get the third. We can write this as

(x + x*y) * 3.2 = x*y²

factor out x

x * 3.2(1 +y) = x*y²

divide both sides by x

3.2(1+y) = y²

expand

3.2 + 3.2y = y²

subtract (3.2 + 3.2y) from both sides to make this a quadratic equation

y²-3.2y-3.2 = 0

use the quadratic formula to solve for y  (note that +- here stands for "plus or minus")

[tex]y = \frac{-(-3.2) +- \sqrt{3.2^{2}-4(-3.2)(1)} }{2} \\= \frac{3.2+-\sqrt{10.24+12.8} }{2} \\= \frac{3.2+- 4.8}{2}[/tex]

=  -0.8 or 4

With these two possibilities, we can try each in our other equation to see what works.

x + x*y + x*y² = 42

for y = -0.8

x + -0.8x + 0.64x = 42

x - 0.16x = 42

0.84x = 42

multiply both sides by 1/0.84 to isolate the x

x=50

This works, with x (the first number) =50, the second number being 50 * -0.8 = -40, and the third being -40 * -0.8 = 32. 50+(-40) = 10, 10*3.2=32, and 50-40+32 = 42

Next, for y=4, we have

x+4x + 16x= 42

21x = 42

divide both sides by 21 to isolate the x

This works as well, with x=2, the second value being 2*4 = 8, and the third value being 8*4 =32. 2+8=10, 10*3.2 = 32, and 2+8+32 = 42

If 10 drivers are randomly selected, what is the probability of getting 3 or more who were involved in a car accident last year?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer: 0.05404

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Binomial distribution = x

n = 10

and p = 0.09

solution:

P(X=x) =1 0Cx*(0.09^x)*((1-0.09)^(10-x)) for x=0,1,2,...,10

So the probability is calculated by the Formula:

P(X>=3) = 1-P(X=0)-P(X=1)-P(X=2)

putting the given values in the formula

= 1-10C0*(0.09^0)*((1-0.09)^(10-0))-...-10C2*(0.09^2)*((1-0.09)^(10-2))

= 0.0540400

Thus, the correct answer: 0.05404

Five years ago victor was twice as old as his daughter

Suppose the current age of victor and his daughter are x and y

For five years ago

[tex]\Rightarrow (y-5)=2(x-5)\\\Rightarrow y-5=2x-10\\\Rightarrow y=2x-5\\\Rightarrow 2x-y=5\quad \ldots(i)[/tex]

In 10 years sum of their ages is 90

3. Given the graph below, determine whether each statement is true or false.

Answers

Answers:

TrueTrueTrueFalseFalse

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

Explanation:

In this context, a zero is another term for x intercept or root. This is where the graph either touches or crosses the x axis. This occurs in three locations: x = -3, x = 2, and x = 0. So those are the three roots. That makes the first three statements true, while the remaining two others are false.

Side note: x = 0 doesn't always have to be involved. Its quite possible to have x = 0 not be an x intercept. The term "zero" is a bit misleading in that regard. I prefer either "root" or "x intercept" instead.

A football is punted from a height of 2.75 ft above the ground, with an initial velocity of 48 feet per

h represents the height of the football, in feet, and t represents the timelin seconds.
If the football is caught 5.25 ft above the ground, approximately how long did it remain in the air?
Roundyour answer to the nearest hundredth of a second.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function for this is given as

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+48t+2.75[/tex] where h(t) is the height of the football at any time t. If the ball is caught at 5.25 feet, that h(t) value is 5.25 since we are looking for the time the ball was in the air from its initial 2.75 feet to 5.25 feet, when it was caught.

[tex]5.25=-16t^2+48t+2.75[/tex] and set this equal to 0:

[tex]-16t^2+48t-2.5=0[/tex] and factor.

When we factor we get

t = .05 and t = 2.95 in seconds.

That first time tell us how long it takes to go from the initial height of 2.75 to a point 2.5 feet higher, 5.25. To get get back down to the 5.25 foot height on the other side of the vertex, is 2.95 seconds. So the total time the ball was in the air was 3 seconds exactly.

The places X and Y are 76km apart on a highway one car starts from Y and other from X at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds, they meet in 5 hours. If they travel towards each other, they meet in 1 hour. What are the speeds of two cars?​

Answers

Answer:

Fast car = 45.6

Slower car = 30.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the first car = x

Let the speed of the second car = y

Travelling towards each other.

x *1 + y*1  = 76 miles

x*5 - y*5 = 76 miles. This is kind of tricky. You have to understand that the first car that is 76 miles from the second car and makes up that 76 in 5 hours. The distance they both travel is subtracted out.

Divide by 5

x - y = 76/5

x - y = 15.2       The speeds differ by 15.2

x + y = 76

x - y  = 15.2

2x = 91.2

x = 45.6

y = 76 - 45.6 = 30.4

When the two vehicles speeds are multiplied by 5, the difference is 76 km

Enda has job offers at two companies. One company offers a starting salary of $75,000 with a raise of $2,500 each year. The other company offers a starting salary of $55,000 with a raise of $5,000 each year. In how many years would Brenda's salary be the same with both companies? What will the salary be?

Answers

Answer:

8 years

Salary: $95000

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation to model the salary and its raise per year. Add the base salary to the raise per year salary times (x). Where the parameter (x) represents the number of years spent in the company.

Company (1):

75000 + 2500x

Company (2):

55000 + 5000(x)

One is asked at which year will the salaries be the same. Equate the two expressions and solve for the variable (x):

75000 + 2500x = 55000 + 5000(x)

Inverse operations:

75000 + 2500x = 55000 + 5000x

20000 + 2500x = 5000x

20000 = 2500x

8 = x

Substitute (x) into any one of the experssions and simplify to solve the epxression,

55000 + 5000(x)

x = 8

= 55000 + 5000(8)

= 55000 + 40000

= 95000

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rectangles are similar and we have their proportion of coefficient, the larger rectangle is twice the smaller rectangle.

Furthermore, the ratio of two longer sides should equal the ratio of the two shorter sides.

Therefore, for our case, we multiply the smaller rectangle by 2.

Hence;

(80 × 2)m
