There are 16 kids on a soccer team. The players are either boys or girls, and they either prefer playing offense or defense. There are 6 boys who prefer offense, 3 boys who prefer defense, 5 girls who prefer offense, and 2 girls who prefer defense.

Suppose you choose one player from the team at random. Let event A be that the player is a girl, and event B be that the player prefers defense. Fine P(B | A).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]P(B|A)=\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of [tex]P(B|A)[/tex] can be read as the probability of event B occurring given event A. In this question, event A occurs when the chosen player is a girl. There are 7 girls on the soccer team. Event B occurs when the chose player plays defense. Since [tex]P(B|A)[/tex] stipulates that event A already occurred, we want the probability of choosing a player who prefers defense from the 7 girls. There are 2 girls who prefer defense, hence [tex]P(B|A)=\boxed{\frac{2}{7}}[/tex].

Alternative:

For dependent events [tex]A[/tex] and [tex]B[/tex], the conditional probability of event B occurring given A is given by:

[tex]P(B|A)=P(B\cap A)\div P(A)[/tex]

[tex]P(B\cap A)[/tex] indicates the intersection of [tex]P(B)[/tex] and [tex]P(A)[/tex]. In this case, it is the probability that both events occur. Since there are 16 kids on the soccer team and only 2 are girls and prefer defense, [tex]P(B\cap A)=\frac{2}{16}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]. The probability of event A occurring (chosen player is a girl) is equal to the number of girls (7) divided by the number of kids on the team (16), hence [tex]P(A)=\frac{7}{16}[/tex].

Therefore, the probability of event B occurring, given event A occurred, is equal to:

[tex]P(B|A)=\frac{1}{8}\div \frac{7}{16},\\\\P(B|A)=\frac{1}{8}\cdot \frac{16}{7}=\boxed{\frac{2}{7}}[/tex]

The graph of f(x) = |x| is transformed to g(x) = |x + 1| – 7. On which interval is the function decreasing?

(–∞, –7)
(–∞, –1)
(–∞, 1)
(–∞, 7)

Answers

Answer:

(−∞,−1) interval is is the function decreasing..

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The graph of f(x) = |x|f(x)=∣x∣ is transformed to g(x) = |x+1|-7g(x)=∣x+1∣−7

To find : On which interval is the function decreasing?

Solution :First we plot the graph of both the functions, The graph of f(x) = |x|f(x)=∣x∣ is shown with black line.

The graph of g(x) = |x+1|-7g(x)=∣x+1∣−7 is shown with violet line. The graph shows the interval over which it is increasing or decreasing.

As we notice it is increasing on the interval (-1,\infty)(−1,∞)

Decreasing on (-\infty,-1)(−∞,−1)

Therefore, (-\infty,-1)(−∞,−1) interval is the function decreasing. please markse as brainliests please for my effort...

The function [tex]g(x) =|x + 1| - 7[/tex] decreases at interval [tex](-\infty, -1)[/tex]

The parent function is given as:

[tex]f(x) =|x|[/tex]

The transformed function is given as:

[tex]g(x) =|x + 1| - 7[/tex]

Both functions are absolute value functions, and an absolute value function is represented as:

[tex]y=a| x-h |+k[/tex]

Where, the vertex of the function is:

[tex]Vertex = (h,k)[/tex]

By comparing [tex]y=a| x-h |+k[/tex] and [tex]g(x) =|x + 1| - 7[/tex], we have:

[tex](h,k) = (-1,-7)[/tex]

[tex]a= 1[/tex]

Because (a) has a positive value (i.e. 1) and (h) is negative, then the vertex represents a minimum.

This also means that, the function will decrease from infinity, till it gets to the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Hence, the function [tex]g(x) =|x + 1| - 7[/tex] decreases at interval [tex](-\infty, -1)[/tex]

(a) Write
[tex] {2}^{5} \div {2}^{5} [/tex]
as a single power if 2.

Answers

Answer:

2^0

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are dividing 2 exponents with the same base (in this case, 2) you subtract them. 2^5 ➗ 2^5 => 2^(5-5) = 2^0 => which is equal to 1, but the answer here would be 2^0.

There are two ways to go about this problem.

The first way, the generic way, is to know that,

[tex]\frac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m},a\neq0[/tex].

So,

[tex]\frac{2^5}{2^5}=2^{5-5}=\boxed{2^0}[/tex].

The second way is to realise that both numerator and denominator are equal and when diving two equal numbers you obtain 1. (except when diving zeros) aka,

[tex]\frac{a}{a}=1, a\neq0[/tex]

And 1 equals to any number raised to the power of zero,

[tex]a^0=1,a\neq0[/tex]

So we just have to say that the 1 we got is rewritten as some base to the power of zero.

Since our base needs to be 2, we just simply say,

[tex]2^0[/tex].

Et Viola.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is D. Use the Stat and then Edit button on your TI calculator to edit the values in L1 and L2 tables. In L1 enter 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and then arrow over and enter the y values into L2 the same way. Enter the number 12, then hit enter; enter the number 14, hit enter; enter the number 15 and then hit enter, etc. Do the same for the values that are going into L1.

When that is done, hit the Stat button again and arrow down to QuadReg and hit enter. Depending upon your calculator, you may have to arrow down to "calculate" or the calculator may display the equation immediately after hitting QuadReg. Again, it all depends upon your calculator.

The required correct quadratic regression equation that fits the given data is y = -0.89x² + 3.24x+11.93. Option D is correct.

What is the equation?

The equation is the relationship between variables and represented as y = ax + b is an example of a polynomial equation.

Here,
To find the quadratic regression equation, we need to use a calculator or software that can perform a quadratic regression analysis. Using such a tool, we obtain the following equation:

y = -0.89x² + 3.24x+11.93

This equation fits the data points (0, 12), (1, 14), (2, 15), (3, 14), (4, 10), and (5, 6) with a high degree of accuracy.

The equation is in the form of a quadratic function, which has a parabolic shape when graphed. The coefficient of the x² term (-0.89) indicates that the parabola is downward-facing, while the other coefficients determine the exact shape and position of the parabola.

Option A is incorrect because its equation does not fit the data points accurately. Option B is also incorrect because it is not a quadratic equation, and option C is incorrect because its equation also does not fit the data points accurately.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y−5=−13(x+2) and passes through the point (6,−1)?

Answers

Answer:

y= -13x+77

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines do not share any points but have the same slope.

First, put the equation y-5=-13(x+2) into slope-intercept form.

y= -13x-21

Slope= -13x

Y-Intercept= (0,-21)

Now that we know the slope...

y-(-1)=-13(x-6)

becomes

y+1=-13x+78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3x² = - 18x + 102 ( add 18x to both sides )

- 3x² + 18x = 102 ( divide through by - 3 )

x² - 6x = - 34

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = - 34 + 9

Select the correct answer.

O 2

Answers

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a 45-45-90 triangle has a hypotenuse of [tex]7\sqrt{2}[/tex].

In a 45-45-90 triangle, the legs are congruent. Therefore we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve.

[tex]a^2+a^2=(7\sqrt{2})^{2}[/tex]         [combine like terms]

[tex]2a^2=(7\sqrt{2})^2[/tex]               [square root both sides]

[tex]a\sqrt{2} =7\sqrt{2}[/tex]                 [divide both sides by root 2]

[tex]a=7[/tex]

Now, we know that a leg is length 7, which is B.

A man walks at the rate of 88 paces to the minute if the average length of his paces is 0.875m, find the time take to walk 2.31km.

Answers

Answer:

30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Walk rate = 88 paces/ minute

Average length of pace = 0.875 m

Time taken to walk 2.31 km ;

The distance in metres :

1000 m = 1 km

2.31 km = (1000 * 2.31) = 2310 m

Recall :

Time taken = distance / speed

Distance walked in a minute = 88 * 0.875 = 77 m

Time taken = 2310 / 77
