  ( 2 , 1 ) , ( 2  2 ) , ( 2 , 3 ) , ( 2 , 4 ) , ( 2 , 5 ) , ( 2 , 6 )

  ( 3 , 1 ) , ( 3 , 2 ) , ( 3 , 3 ) , ( 3 , 4 ) , ( 3 , 5 ) , ( 3 , 6 )

 ( 4 , 1 ) , ( 4 , 2 ) , ( 4 , 3 ) , ( 4 , 4 ) , ( 4 , 5 ) , ( 4 , 6 )

( 5 , 1 ) , ( 5 , 2 ) , ( 5 , 3 ) , ( 5 , 4 ) , ( 5 , 5 ) , ( 5 , 6 )

 ( 6 , 1 ) , ( 6 , 2 ) , ( 6 , 3 ) , ( 6 , 4 ) , ( 6 , 5 ) , ( 6 , 6 ) }

Total number of samples = 36

Samples with a sum of 8 = { ( 2 , 6 ) , ( 3 , 5 ) , ( 4 , 4 ) , ( 5 , 3 ) , ( 6 , 2 ) }

Total number of sample with sum 8 = 5

Therefore,

          [tex]Probability \ of \ sum \ of \ 8 = \frac{5}{36}[/tex]

Does (3, 3) make the equation y = 5x true?

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x

In the coordinate (3, 3), the first number is the x value and the second number is the y value.

So, does 3 = 5(3).

The answer is no, so this coordinate does not make the equation true.

Let me know if this helps!

Answer: No, the given point does not make the equation true.

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

Explanation:

There are three different ways to approach this.

One way is to plug x = 3 into the equation to find that

y = 5x

y = 5*3

y = 15

But that doesn't match up with y = 3 from the point (3,3). So we see that (3,3) is not a solution to y = 5x.

------

Or another method we could do is plug x = 3 and y = 3 to find a contradiction

y = 5x

3 = 5*3

3 = 15

The contradiction being that 3 on the left side doesn't match with 15 on the right side. The false equation at the end means y = 5x is false for (x,y) = (3,3), and therefore this point is not a solution to y = 5x.

------

The third method involves graphing the line y = 5x. You can see that (3,3) is not on the line, which visually confirms the results of the previous two sections. So for a point to be a solution, it must be on the line.

Express the function f(x) =3x^2-6x-18 in the form a(x + h)^2=k, where a, h and k are constants.Hence state the :
(i) the minimum value of f(x).
(ii) the value of x for which f (x) is a minimum

Answers

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =3x^2-6x-18

Factor out the greatest common factor out of the first two terms

f(x) =3(x^2-2x)-18

Complete the square

-2x/2 =-1  (-1)^2 = 1

Add 1  (But remember the 3 out front so we are really adding 3  so we need to subtract 3 to remain balanced)

f(x) = 3(x^2 -2x+1) -3 -18

f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 -21

This is vertex form

f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k  where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant

The vertex is (1,-21)  

Since a > 0 this opens upward and the vertex is a minimum

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

24 cars pass through an intersection each minute while the traffic light is green. In addition, 6 cars pass through the intersection
while the light is yellow. If 84 cars pass through
the intersection during one light cycle (one green light and one yellow light), how long was the green light?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3.25 minutes per green light x 24 = 78

the yellow light is a given, hence 6 cars pass through

Look at the graph. There is a open circle at y=0. So this means we are not going to include 0 in our function. The graph approaches f(x) to positive Infinity so our highest y value is Infinity.

So we know that the function y values cannot be zero and it must be positive. So our range is

if cos7x-cos8x/1+2cos5x=cos(ax)-cos(bx),where a,b are positive integers, then a²+b²=??

pls help! :(​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]hope \: its \: helful[/tex]

if cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = cos(ax) - cos(bx), where a, b are positive integers, then a²+b²= 100.

The given equation is:

cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = cos(ax) - cos(bx)

The LHS can be expanded as follows:

cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = (2*cos4x*sin3x)/(2*cos2x) = sin3x

The RHS can be expanded as follows:

cos(ax) - cos(bx) = -2sin((a + b)/2)*sin((a - b)/2)

For the given equation to be true, the following must be true:

sin3x = -2sin((a + b)/2)*sin((a - b)/2)

3x = 180(a + b)/2

3x = 180(a - b)/2

Solving for a and b, we get a=6 and b=3.

Therefore, a² + b² = 6² + 3²=100.

Find the first term and the common difference of the arithmetic sequence whose 6th term is 30 and 12th term
is 54.

Answers

Answer:

10 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is a, common difference is d.

The 6th term:

a + 5d = 30

The 12th term:

a + 11d = 54

Solve the system by elimination:

11d - 5d = 54 - 306d = 24d = 4

Find a:

a + 5*4 = 30a + 20 = 30a = 10

Answer:

Given :-

6th term = 30

12th term = 54

To Find :-

First term

Common difference

Solution :-

We know that

[tex] \sf \: a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

For 6th term

[tex] \sf \: 30 = a + (6 - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 30 = a + 5d[/tex]

For 12th term

[tex]\sf \: a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + (12 - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11d[/tex]

On subtracting both

[tex] \sf \: 54 - 30 = a + 11d - (a + 5d)[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 - 30 = a + 11d - a - 5d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 24 = 6d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: \dfrac{24}{6} = d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 4 = d[/tex]

Now

Using 2

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11(4)[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 44[/tex]
