At an intersection, the red light of route A is red for 60 seconds and the other two lights are red for 45 and 75 seconds, respectively. What is the probability that a car traveling from route A will encounter a red light at an intersection?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event E in a sample space S is P(E) = desired outcome/total number of possible outcomes.

The probability of encountering a red light at the intersection P(red light on) = time it takes red light to stay on/total time all the lights stay on, where desired outcome = time it takes red light to stay on on route A and total number of possible outcomes = total time all the lights stay on.

Since all the other two lights have to come on after the red light goes off and before the red light comes on again, and the red light has to be on to encounter it at an intersection.

So, P(red light on) = 60 s/(60 s+ 45 s+ 75 s)

= 60 s/180 s

= 1/3

Find the diagonal of the box using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Answers

Answer:

26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 24 cm

Width = 8 cm

Height = 6 cm

Required:

Diagonal of the box

SOLUTION:

Using the pythagorean theorem, [tex] a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = d^2 [/tex], where,

a, b and c are the dimensions of the box, and d is the length of the diagonal.

Plug in the value into the formula

[tex] 24^2 + 8^2 + 6^2 = d^2 [/tex]

[tex] 676 = d^2 [/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{676} = \sqrt{d^2} [/tex]

The sum of the first (n) terms of the sequence is given by the formula (given below) . If this sequence is a geometric progression, find q. If this sequence is an Arithmetic progression, find d​​

Answers

Answer:Example 1:

Find the sum of the first 8 terms of the geometric series if a1=1 and r=2.

S8=1(1−28)1−2=255

Example 2:

Find S10 of the geometric sequence 24,12,6,⋯.

First, find r.  

r=r2r1=1224=12

Now, find the sum:

S10=24(1−(12)10)1−12=306964

Example 3:

Evaluate.

∑n=1103(−2)n−1

(You are finding S10 for the series 3−6+12−24+⋯, whose common ratio is −2.)

Sn=a1(1−rn)1−rS10=3[1−(−2)10]1−(−2)=3(1−1024)3=−1023  

In order for an infinite geometric series to have a sum, the common ratio r must be between −1 and 1.  Then as n increases, rn gets closer and closer to 0.  To find the sum of an infinite geometric series having ratios with an absolute value less than one, use the formula, S=a11−r, where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Example 4:

Find the sum of the infinite geometric sequence

27,18,12,8,⋯.

First find r:  

r=a2a1=1827=23

Then find the sum:

S=a11−r

S=271−23=81

Example 5:

Find the sum of the infinite geometric sequence

8,12,18,27,⋯ if it exists.

First find r:  

r=a2a1=128=32

Since r=32 is not less than one the series has no sum.

one factor of 8x^3+1 is 2x+1 The other factor is?

Answers

First, write 8x^3 in exponential form (8 is basically the same as 2^3)


So that you have 2^3*x^3+1


Multiply the terms with equal exponents by multiply the bases (1 is basically the same as 1^3)


So that it becomes (2x)^3+1^3



Then, using a^3+b^3 equals (a+b)(a^2-2ab+b^2), factor the expression so that it becomes
(2x+1)((2x)^2-2x+1^2)

Expand the second bracket


So the two factors are (2x+1) and (4x^2-2x+1)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The number in the dish at time t (in hours) can be described by ...

  n(t) = 100·2^(t/26)

We want to find t such that ...

  n(t) = 168

  100·2^(t/26) = 168

  2^(t/26) = 1.68 . . . . . . divide by 100

  (t/26)log(2) = log(1.68) . . . . . take logarithms

  t = 26·log(1.68)/log(2) ≈ 19.459992 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

  t ≈ 19.5 . . . hours

It would be about 19.5 hours until there are 168 bacteria.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4, -2) and (8, – 7)?
Put your answer in fully reduced form.

Answers

Answer:

y= -5x/4 + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope, use the equation [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], so m(the slope) = (-7+2)/(8-4) = -5/4.

Now let us use (4,-2) in the equation [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex].

So y - (-2) = (-5/4)(x - 4) (equation of the line)

y + 2 = -5/4(x - 4)

y + 2 = -5x/4 + 5

y= -5x/4 + 3 (slope-intercept form, also known as fully reduced form)

You could also use (8,-7) instead of (4,-2).

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybeans that contained a mixture of regular flavored jellybeans and "surprise" jellybeans. The bag advertised that 15% of the jellybeans were "surprise" flavors. If she counted 40 jellybeans in the bag, how many should she expect to be the "surprise" jellybeans?

Answers

Answer:

6 jellybean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybean the contains regular flavored jelly beans and surprise jelly bean.

Consider the regular flavored jellybean to be = r;  &

The surprise jelly bean.= s

From the bag, there are 40 jellybeans of which 15% is surprise jellybean.

Therefore the number of expected surprise jellybeans is:

= total number of jellybeans × percentage of surprise jellybean

= 40 × (15 /100)

= 6 jellybean

If  6 surprise jellybean is presented in the bag; then the number of regular flavored jellybean = 40 - 6 = 34 regular flavored jellybean
