Help please!!!!!A student needs to select 3 books from 3 different mathematics, 3 different physics and 1 history book. what is the probability that one of them is mathematics and the other 2 are either physics or history books ? A. 3/15 B.9/25 C. 15/35 D. 18/35​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Choice D) 18/35

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

Explanation:

There are 3 ways to select the single math book and 4*3/2 = 12/2 = 6 ways to pick the two other books that are either physics or history (order doesn't matter). This is effectively because we have 3+1 = 4 books that are either physics or history, and we're using the nCr combination formula.

Overall, there are 3*6 = 18 ways to select the three books such that one is math, and the other two are either physics or history.

-------------------

There are 3+3+1 = 7 books total. Since we're selecting 3 of them, we use the nCr formula again and you should get 35.

Or you could note how (7*6*5)/(3*2*1) = 210/6 = 35

This says there are 35 ways to select any three books where we can tell the difference between any subject (ie we can tell the difference between the math books for instance).

-------------------

We found there are 18 ways to get what we want out of 35 ways to do the three selections. Therefore, the answer as a fraction is 18/35

The length of a ladder leaning against a building is 60 feet. The ladder hits the building at the top of the building. The distance to the building from where the ladder touches the ground is 15 feet. What is the height of the building to the nearest foot?
A. 38ft
B. 48ft
C. 58ft
D. 68ft

Answers

Answer:

C. 58ft

Step-by-step explanation:

An imaginary triangle is described here. The hypotenuse is 60, and one of the other sides is 15.

60*60=3600

15*15=225

3600-225=3375

sqrt3375=58.09

round that to get 58ft

A canoeist traveling with the current traveled the 24 miles between two riverside campsites in 2 hours. The return trip against the current took 3 hours. Find the speed of the canoeist in still water and the speed of the current, both in miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

Speed of canoiest is 10 miles/hour.

Speed of current is 2 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of canoiest is v and the speed of current is u.

distance = speed x time

24 = (v + u ) x 2

v + u = 12 ..... (1)

Now

24 = (v- u) x 3

v - u = 8 .... (2)

By solving (1) and (2)

2 v = 20

v = 10 miles/hour

u = 2 miles/hour

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

 percent is any number over 100, so 25% is 25 over 100, this means that 25% can be written as:

25100

Now, any number in fractional form (a number over a number) is the same as division so 25% can also be written as a decimal, we just move the decimal point 2 places to the right of 25, like this:

25100=0.25

Now we have two ways that we can solve this problem! I'll start with the fractional method of solving.

here bro this should be it

A telephone pole has a wire attached to its top that is anchored to the ground. The distance from the bottom of the pole to the anchor point is 49 feet less than the height of the pole. If the wire is to be 14 feet longer than the height of the pole, what is the height of the pole?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  105 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the height of the pole. Then (x -49) is the distance from the pole to the anchor point, and (x+14) is the length of the wire from the top of the pole to the anchor point.

The Pythagorean theorem gives us the relation ...

  (x +14)² = x² +(x -49)²

  x² +28x +196 = x² +x² -98x +2401 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  x² -126x +2205 = 0 . . . . . . . . put in standard form

  x² -126x +3969 -1764 = 0 . . . . "complete the square)

  (x -63) = ±√1764 . . . . . . add 1764, take the square root

  x = 63 +42 = 105 . . . . . . highest value root. The pole must be higher than 49 feet

The height of the pole is 105 feet.

Answer: [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so when taking roots the number in the little corner at the left of the radical sign (if there is one) is the root you take. It could be the 4th root, 6th root, or the x root. You don't have to use the radical sign though, you can use an exponent to write it. All you have to do is take the reciprocal of the number to find what to write for the exponent. So for those examples it would be [tex]\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{6} ,\frac{1}{x}[/tex]. The number in the top left of the radical sign is 8 so the answer would be [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Mr. Mason’s class is going on a field trip. There are 27 students. There will be 1 adult for every 9 students. Mr. Mason wants to know how many adults (n) are needed for the field trip. Which of the following equations should he use?
A. 9n + 27
B. 27 – 9n
C. 9n = 27 - 1
D. 9n = 27

Answers

Answer:

D. 9n = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If we need one adult for every 9 students, we can represent that as 9n:

if n is the number of adults.

Because we have 27 students, the equation 9n = 27 works.

A better way of formatting the equation is:

n = 27/9

Because it directly shows what the number of adults is, but with some reformatting, it is clearly the same equation.

Suppose 180 randomly selected people are surveyed to determine whether or not they plan on voting to reelect the current president. Of the 180 surveyed, 36 reported they will not vote to reelect the current president.

Given :

Sample size, n = 180

x = 36

Proportion, p = x / n = 36/180 = 0.2

Confidence interval for sample proportion :

Confidence interval :

p ± Zcritical * √p(1 - p) / n

Zcritical at 99% = 2.576

0.2 ± 2.576 * √0.2(1 - 0.2) / 180

Find the value of a for which there is no term independent of x in the ezlxpansion of
[tex](1 + ax {}^{2} )( \frac{2}{x} - 3x) {}^{6} [/tex]

Answers

"no terms independent of x" basically means there is no constant term, or the coefficient of x ⁰ is zero.

Recall the binomial theorem:

[tex]\displaystyle (a+b)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk a^{n-k}b^k[/tex]

So we have

[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \left(1+ax^2\right) \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k \left(\frac2x\right)^{6-k}(-3x)^k[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \left(1+ax^2\right) \sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-6}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-6}+a\sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-4}[/tex]

The first sum contributes a x ⁰ term for 2k - 6 = 0, or k = 3, while the second sum contributes a x ⁰ term for 2k - 4 = 0, or k = 2. The coefficient of the sum of these terms must be zero:

[tex]2^{6-3}(-3)^3\dbinom 63 + a\times2^{6-2}(-3)^2\dbinom 62 = 0[/tex]

which reduces to

2160a - 4320 = 0

2160a = 4320
