A box contains tickets marked 1,2,3...n. A ticket is drawn at random from the box. Then the ticket is then replaced in the box and a second ticket drawn at random. Find the probabilities of the following events. a) the first ticket drawn is a number 1 and the second is the number 2. b) the numbers on the two tickets are consecutive integers, meaning the first number drawn is one less than the second number drawn. c) the second number drawn is bigger than the first number drawn.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 1/n²

B) (n - 1)/n²

C) Probability = (1 - (1/n))/2

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that a ticket is drawn at random from the box. Thereafter, the ticket is replaced in the box and a second ticket is now drawn at random.

This means the events of the first and second tickets are independent.

Probability of first ticket = 1/n

Probability of 2nd ticket = 1/n

Probability of both together = 1/n × 1/n = 1/n²

B) The number on the 2 tickets are consecutive integers.

This means number of cases will be (n - 1)

From a above, we see that for the two tickets the denominator is n²

Thus, in this case, the probability that both that the numbers on the two tickets are consecutive integers = (n - 1)/n²

C) if we assume that the first ticket is b, then the number of correct selections for the 2nd ticket is (n - b).

Thus, number of correct selections is;

(n_Σ_k=1) (n - b) = n² - (n(n - 1)/2)

Simplifying this gives;

(2n² - n² - n)/2

>> ½(n² - n)

There are n² selections in total, thus let's factorize n² out and then the remaining part in bracket will be the probability. Thus;

>> n²(1 - (1/n))/2

Probability = (1 - (1/n))/2

Caroline puts $400 into a savings account that earns 6% annually. Write a function that represents this situation, where t is the time in years. Solve algebraically after how many years she will get $1200 in her account (round it to the nearest year).

Answers

Answer: 19 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount invested [tex]\$400[/tex]

Rate of interest [tex]R=6\%[/tex]

after 1-year amount becomes

[tex]A=400\left (1+6\%\right)\\A=400\left (1+0.06\right)\\A=400\times 1.06\\A=\$424[/tex]

After n years it is

[tex]A=400\left (1.06\right)^n[/tex]

Sum accumulated is [tex]\$1200[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 1200=400\left(1.06\right)^n\\\Rightarrow 3=\left(1.06\right)^n\\\text{Taking log both sides}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{\ln 3}{\ln 1.06}\\\\\Rightarrow n=18.85\approx 19\ \text{years}[/tex]

Ivan wants to fill with foam the empty space left in a cube-shaped box after he places a basketball in the box. How many cubic inches of foam is needed if the radius of the basketball is 4.75 in. and the sides of the box are each 9 in.? Use 3.14 for π, and round your answer to the nearest whole number. in.3

Answers

Answer:

280 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Cubic inches of foam required = volume of the box - volume of the basketball

The box has a shape of a cube, so that;

volume of the box = [tex]l^{3}[/tex]

where l is the length of the sides of the box.

volume of the box = [tex]9^{3}[/tex]

                               = 729 cubic inches

volume of the box = 729 cubic inches

The basketball has the shape of a sphere, so that;

volume of the basketball = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{3}[/tex]

                                          = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x 3.14 x [tex](4.75)^{3}[/tex]

                                           = 448.693

volume of the basketball = 448.693 cubic inches

Thus,

cubic inches of foam required = 729 - 448.693

                                                   = 280.307

The cubic inches of foam to be used is 280 cubic inches.

Six students are taller than 68 inches.

Most of the students are 67 inches tall.

One student is 65 inches tall.

Most of the students are 67 or 68 inches tall.

Answers

Answer: Most of the students are 67 or 68 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, option A is correct as six students are taller than 68 inches.

Also, most of the students are 67 inches tall since there are 9 students who are 67 inches tall. Also, only one student is 65 inches tall.

The best description of the data is that most of the students are 67 or 68 inches tall. 9 students are 67 inches tall while 8 students are 68 inches tall. This means 17 out of 25 students have those heights. Therefore, most of the students are 67 or 68 inches tall is the correct option.

Only six students (24 percent) are taller than 68 inches.

According to provided data set consisting of height measurements for a group of students.

The data has been organized into a tally chart,

with each tally representing one student's height falling within a particular category.

To analyze this data further,

we can calculate the cumulative frequency for each height category.

The cumulative frequency is the sum of the frequencies up to and including the current category.

Using the provided data,

we can calculate the cumulative frequency as follows,

65" | 1 |

cf = 1 66" | 1 |

cf = 2 67" |||| 9 |

cf = 11 68" ||| 8 |

cf = 19 69" ||| 3 |

cf = 22 70" || 2 |

cf = 24 71" | 1 |

cf = 25

Based on this data,

we can make several observations.

Firstly, there is only one student who is 65 inches tall.

Secondly, most of the students (44% or 11 out of 25) are 67 inches tall, with a similar number (32% or 8 out of 25) being 68 inches tall.

Finally, only six students (24%) are taller than 68 inches.

  4) 99°

  6) 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant relations are ...

an inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it interceptsthe total of arcs around a circle is 360°

__

2) Arc WXY = 2×angle WDY = 2(99°) = 198°

__

4) Arc CLE is 2×angle CDE = 2(97°) = 194°

  Arc DE = 360° -72° -194° = 94°

  angle C = (arc DE +arc EL)/2 = (94° +104°)/2 = 99°

__

6) angle C = (360° -arc EC -arc CD)/2 = (360° -71° -109°)/2 = 90°

Answer:

2.

Given:

m arc WXY=2×99°=198°[central angle is equal to the twice of its inscribed angle]

4.Arc CLE =2x< CDE = 2×97° = 194°[central angle is equal to the twice of its inscribed angle]

again

Arc DE =360° -72° -194° = 94°[from complete turn]

and

angle C =½ (arc DE +arc EL) =½ (94° +104°) = 99°

6) angle C =½ (360° -arc EC -arc CD)

=½ (360° -71° -109°)= 90°

What is a series?

A sequence is defined as an arrangement of numbers in a particular order.  A series is the cumulative sum of a given sequence of terms. Typically, these terms are real or complex numbers.

For the given situation,

The series is 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64 + 1/256.

⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{16} +\frac{1}{64} +\frac{1}{256}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4^{2} } +\frac{1}{4^{3} } +\frac{1}{4^{4} }[/tex]

Thus the sum of this series can be obtained by the expression,

[tex]S_{n}= \lim_{n \to \infty} (\frac{1}{4^{n}})[/tex]

⇒ [tex]S_{n}= \lim_{n \to \infty} (\frac{1}{4})^{n}[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the expression that defines Sn is option (A), Sn = lim n->∞ (1/4)^n is the correct answer.

Your homeowner’s policy has a premium of $150, a deductible of $5000, and a limit of $300,000. Your home suffers $500,000 in damages. How much will you pay?

Answers

The amount that the person get after he home suffers $500,000 in damages is $20000.

What is deductible amount?

Deductible amount is the amount which is paid by one in the starting of any policy.

The homeowner’s policy has a premium of $150. Thus, the amount paid in a year is,

[tex]150\times12=1800[/tex]

The home suffers $500,000 in damages and the deductible is of $5000. Thus, the amount remain is,

[tex]A=500000-5000\\A=495000[/tex]

The limit of the policy is $300000. Thus, the amount will be remained as,

[tex]A=495000-300000\\A=195000[/tex]

If we include the deductible amount, then,

[tex]A=195000+5000\\A=200000[/tex]

This amount does not include the premium paid by the homeowner. Hence the amount that the person get after he home suffers $500,000 in damages is $20000.

f(x)= square root of x-5. find f-1 (x) and it’s domain

Answers

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse function:

Suppose we have a function y = f(x). To find the inverse function, we exchange x and y on the original function, and then isolate y.

The domain of the inverse function(x values) is the range of the original function(y values).

Original function:

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x} - 5[/tex]

Domain is [tex][0,\infty)[/tex], and when [tex]x = 0, f(x) = -5[/tex]. So the range is [tex][-5,\infty][/tex], that is, [tex]y \geq -5[/tex]

Inverse function:

[tex]y = \sqrt{x} - 5[/tex]

Exchanging x and y

[tex]x = \sqrt{y} - 5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{y} = x + 5[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{y})^2 = (x+5)^2[/tex]

[tex]y = (x+5)^2[/tex]

The inverse function is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = (x+5)^2[/tex]

Domain:

Range of the original function is [tex]y \geq -5[/tex], so the domain of the inverse function is [tex]x \geq -5[/tex]. The correct answer is given by option B.
