Answer:
x^2 - 10x
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 - 4x - x^2 +6x
You subtract x^2 from 2x^2 and you get x^2
Then you add 6x and 4x together and get 10x
So then you have x^2 - 10x

there are only red counters and blue counters in a bag. Jim takes at random a counter from a bag. the probability that the counter is red is 0.45 Jim puts the counter back into the bag. Molly takes at random a counter from the bag. She puts the counter back in the bag. What is the probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours? Give your answer as a decimal
Answer:
0.495 probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours
Step-by-step explanation:
For each trial, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a blue counter is picked, or a red counter is picked. The counter is put back in the bag after it is taken, which means that we can use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
The probability that the counter is red is 0.45
This means that [tex]p = 0.45[/tex]
Jim taken a counter, then Molly:
Two trials, so [tex]n = 2[/tex]
What is the probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours?
One red and one blue. So this is P(X = 1).
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}.(0.45)^{1}.(0.55)^{1} = 0.495[/tex]
0.495 probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours

Mary is selling chocolate bars to raise money. She earns $3 for each solid milk chocolate bar sold and $4 for each caramel-filled bar sold. If m represents the number of milk chocolate bars sold, and c represents the number of caramel bars sold, which of the following expressions represents the amount of money that Mary has raised? Question 6 options: A) 3m – 4c B) m∕3 + i∕4 C) 12mc D) 3m + 4c
Answer:
3m + 4c
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever a word problem says the word earn that means the slope, also known as the rate of change, will be positive. Knowing this you can determine that both the caramel and milk chocolate slopes will be positive. After figuring all that out the only thing left to do is to make the equation. You know you have two slopes, and each slope needs a variable, so you will have to look back at the question. It is given that m represents the milk chocolate and c represents the caramel. Now all you have to do is make the slope the coefficient to the corresponding variable. The milk chocolates are 3 dollars, so the 3 goes in front of the m and the caramel chocolates are 4 dollars, so teh 4 goes in front of the 4. Since both slopes are positive no negatives or minus signs will be used in the equation. Knowing all this information you can now create the expression 3m + 4c.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
3m + 4c
An elementary school is offering 3 language classes: one in Spanish, one in French, and one in German. The classes are open to any of the 100 students in the school. There are 28 students in the Spanish class, 26 in the French class, and 16 in the German class. There are 12 students who are in both Spanish and French, 4 who are in both Spanish and German, and 6 who are in both French and German. In addition, there are 2 students taking all 3 classes. If two students are randomly chosen, what is the probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes.
Answer:
The probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes is 0.32.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can model this variable as a binomial random variable with sample size n=2.
The probability of success, meaning the probability that a student is in exactly two language classes can be calculated as the division between the number of students that are taking exactly two classes and the total number of students.
The number of students that are taking exactly two classes is equal to the sum of the number of students that are taking two classes, minus the number of students that are taking the three classes:
[tex]N_2=F\&S+S\&G+F\&G-F\&S\&G=12+4+6-2=20[/tex]
Then, the probabilty of success p is:
[tex]p=20/100=0.2[/tex]
The probability that k students are in exactly two classes can be calcualted as:
[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{2}{k} 0.2^{k} 0.8^{2-k}\\\\\\[/tex]
Then, the probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes is:
[tex]P(x=1) = \dbinom{2}{1} p^{1}(1-p)^{1}=2*0.2*0.8=0.32\\\\\\[/tex]

Five times the sum of a number and 13 is 20. Find the number
Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out expression
5(x + 13) = 20
Step 2: Distribute
5x + 65 = 20
Step 3: Isolate x
5x = -45
x = -9
And we have our answer!
Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
5(x+13) = 20
Expand.
5x+65 = 20
Subtract 26 on both sides.
5x = 20 - 65
5x = -45
Divide 5 into both sides.
x = -45/5
x = -9
The number is -9.

Where is my phone? I seem to have lost my phone. I know where I last saw it but it has been moved since then and I need help to locate it. It started at the following coordinates A (14, -12); B (14, -19); C (10, -19); D (10, -14); E (13, -14); F (13, -12). My Mom told me she translated it 6 units to the left Then my little brother said he had reflected it over the Y-axis My friend many found it and translated it 9 units up Dad said he tripped over it and reflected it over the X-axis My sister then rotated it 900 clockwise Uncle Jose translated it 5 units left and 4 units down Cousin Michelle then said she rotated it 900 clockwise Finally my dog picked it up and translated it 5 units down and 10 units to the right Where is my phone? Using the scenario on this page do the following. Graph the preimage using the given points. Label points (A, B, C, ...) Transform the objects using the information provided. Show each transformation and label. (A', B', C', ...) Determine the final location. Write a 2 to 3 sentence explain on how you found the phone location.
Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
The attachments show the initial (brown) and final (blue) positions of the phone. The spreadsheet shows all the intermediate locations and the formulas used to determine them.
The two reflections cancel the total of 180° of CW rotation, so the net result is simply a translation. That translation is up by 9 units.
__
Translation up adds to the y-coefficient; translation right adds to the x-coefficient. Down or left use negative values.
90° CW does this: (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)
Reflection across y does this: (x, y) ⇒ (-x, y)
Reflection across x does this: (x, y) ⇒ (x, -y)

Step-by-step explanation:
At the U.S. Open Tennis Championship a statistician keeps track of every serve that a player hits during the tournament. The statistician reported that the mean serve speed was 100 miles per hour (mph) and the standard deviation of the serve speeds was 15 mph. Assume that the statistician also gave us the information that the distribution of serve speeds was mound- shaped and symmetric. What percentage of the player's serves were between 115 mph and 145 mph
Answer:
15.74% of the player's serves were between 115 mph and 145 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 15[/tex]
What percentage of the player's serves were between 115 mph and 145 mph
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 145 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 115.
X = 145
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{145 - 100}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9987
X = 115
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{115 - 100}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8413
0.9987 - 0.8413 = 0.1574
15.74% of the player's serves were between 115 mph and 145 mph

A game popular in Nevada gambling casinos is Keno, which is played as follows: Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80. A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house. The payoff is a function of the number of elements in the player’s selection and the number of matches. For instance, if the player selects only 1 number, then he or she wins if this number is among the set of 20, and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the player’s probability of winning in this case is , it is clear that the "fair" payoff should be $3 won for every $1 bet). When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20.A) What would be the fair payoff in this case? Let P, k denote the probability that exactly k of the n numbers chosen by the player are among the 20 selected by the house. B) Compute Pn, k.C) The most typical wager at Keno consists of selecting 10 numbers. For such a bet, the casino pays off as shown in the following table. Compute the expected payoff.
The missing part in the question;
and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the player’s probability of winning in this case is [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]........
Also:
For such a bet, the casino pays off as shown in the following table.
The table can be shown as:
Keno Payoffs in 10 Number bets
Number of matches Dollars won for each $1 bet
0 - 4 -1
5 1
6 17
7 179
8 1299
9 2599
10 24999
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80
A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house
Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.
Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters N= 80 and m =20.
Then, the probability mass function of a hypergeometric distribution can be defined as:
[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^m_k)(^{N-m}_{n-k})}{(^N_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]
Now; the probability that i out of n numbers chosen by the player among 20 can be expressed as:
[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^{20}_k)(^{60}_{n-k})}{(^{80}_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]
Also; given that ; When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20
So; n= 2; k= 2
Then :
Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]=\dfrac{(^{20}_2)(^{60}_{2-2})}{(^{80}_2)}[/tex]
Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]= \dfrac{20*19}{80*79}[/tex]
Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]=\dfrac{19}{316}[/tex]
Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]=\dfrac{1}{16.63}[/tex]
Thus; the payoff odd for [tex]=\dfrac{1}{16.63}[/tex] is 16.63:1 ,as such fair payoff in this case is $16.63
Again;
Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.
Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters N= 80 and m =20.
The probability mass function of the hypergeometric distribution can be defined as :
[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^m_k)(^{N-m}_{n-k})}{(^N_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]
Now; the probability that i out of n numbers chosen by the player among 20 can be expressed as:
[tex]P(n,k)=\dfrac{(^{20}_k)(^{60}_{n-k})}{(^{80}_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]
From the table able ; the expected payoff can be computed as shown in the attached diagram below. Thanks.

Step-by-step explanation:
The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 255.4 and a standard deviation of 63.9. (All units are 1000 cells/muL.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 63.7 and 447.1? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 191.5 and 319.3?
Answer:
a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
b) [tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following properties for the random variable of interest "blood platelet counts"
[tex]\mu = 255.4[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 63.9[/tex] represent the population deviation
Part a
From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
Part b
We want this probability:
[tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Which is the better buy?. Store A $180 at 1/3 off Or Store B $110 at 10% off
Answer: Store B
Step-by-step explanation:
180 / 3 = 60. 180 - 60= $120. Store A cost is $120.
110 * 0.9 = $99. Store B's cost is $99.
Answer:
Store B
Step-by-step explanation:
Store A the price would be about $120.60
Store B price would be about $99
To find store a price, you first find the discount, so
0.33 x 180 = 59.40
Then subtract this from the original price to know the total after the discount
180-59.40=120.60
Do the same thing with the other Store
110 x 0.10 = 11
110-11=99
Rasheeda sees a garden in a book. She changes the scale because she wants a garden with different dimensions. The figure below shows both scales and a scale drawing of the garden.
Book scale: 1 inch = 2 feet. Rasheeda's Scale: 2 inches = 3 feet. A rectangle with length A of 18 inches and width B of 6 inches.
Which statements about the gardens are true? Select three options.
Answer:
B. Length A of Rasheeda’s garden is 27 ft.
C. Length B of the book’s garden is 12 ft.
E. Length A of the book’s garden is 9 ft longer than length A of Rasheeda’s garden.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the dimension of the book's garden
we know that
Book scale: 1 inch = 2 feet
That means
1 inch in the drawing represent 2 feet in the actual
To find out the actual dimensions, multiply the dimension in the drawing by 2
so
Length A of the book’s garden
Width B of the book’s garden
step 2
Find the dimension of Rasheeda’s garden
we know that
Rasheeda's Scale: 2 inch = 3 feet
That means
2 inch inches the drawing represent 3 feet in the actual
To find out the actual dimensions, multiply the dimension in the drawing by 3 and divided by 2
so
Length A of Rasheeda's garden
Width B of Rasheeda's garden
Verify each statement
A. Length A of the book’s garden is 18 ft.
The statement is false
Because, Length A of the book’s garden is 36 ft (see the explanation)
B. Length A of Rasheeda’s garden is 27 ft.
The statement is true (see the explanation)
C. Length B of the book’s garden is 12 ft
The statement is true (see the explanation)
D. Length B of Rasheeda’s garden is 6 ft.
The statement is false
Because, Length B of Rasheeda’s garden is 9 ft. (see the explanation)
E. Length A of the book’s garden is 9 ft longer than length A of Rasheeda’s garden.
The statement is true
Because the difference between 36 ft and 27 ft is equal to 9 ft
F. Length B of the book’s garden is 3 ft shorter than length B of Rasheeda’s garden.
The statement is false
Because, Length B of the book’s garden is 3 ft greater than length B of Rasheeda’s garden.

Imagine you have a rectangular wooden block with dimensions of 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm (L x W x H). Required:a. What is the volume of your wooden block?b. What is the density of this wooden block if it has a mass of 168 g?
Answer:
a) The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.
b) The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the rectangular wooden block can be calculated as the multiplication of the length in each dimension: length, wide and height.
With dimensions 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm, the volume is:
[tex]V=L\cdot W\cdot H = 10\cdot 3\cdot 8=240[/tex]
The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.
If we know that the mass of the wooden block is 168 g, we can calculate the density as:
[tex]\rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{168}{240}=0.7[/tex]
The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.

Heights of Women. Heights of adult women are distributed normally with a mean of 162 centimeters and a standard deviation of 8 centimeters. Use the Table B.3 Areas under the Normal Curve (page 519 of the textbook) to find the indicated quantities: a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Answer:
a) 6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) 58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 162, \sigma = 8[/tex]
a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 150. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668
6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 180 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 160.
X = 180
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9878
X = 160
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.4013
0.9878 - 0.4013 = 0.5865
58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Solve the equation.
5x + 8 - 3x = -10
x = -1
x=1
x=9
Answer:
x=-9solution,
[tex]5x + 8 - 3x = - 10 \\ or \: 5x - 3x + 8 = -10 \\ or \: 2x + 8 = -10 \\ or \: 2x = -10 - 8 \\ or \: 2x = -18\\ or \: x = \frac{-18}{2 } \\ x = -9[/tex]
hope this helps..
Good luck on your assignment
Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8 - 3x = -10
Rearrange.
5x - 3x + 8 = -10
Subtract like terms.
2x + 8 = -10
Subtract 8 on both sides.
2x = -10 - 8
2x = -18
Divide 2 into both sides.
x = -18/2
x = -9
Choose the ratio that you would use to convert 1.5 feet to miles. Remember
that there are 5,280 feet in one mile.
Answer: B, 1 mile / 5280 ft.
Step-by-step explanation: If you need to convert feet to miles the unit multiplier (ratio) that you use should have miles on top and feet on the bottom so that the feet cancel when you multiply, leaving miles as the unit. B is the only answer that has miles on top and feet on the bottom as well as the correct amounts (1 mile and 5280 ft).
