Two fair dice are rolled 3 times and the sums of the numbers that come up is recorded. Find the probability of these events. A) the sum 10 on each of the three rolls? B) the sum is 10 exactly twice in three rolls?

Answers

Answer:

A) P(10 on three rolls) = 1/1728 = 0.0005787

B) P(10 in two of three rolls) = 11/1728 = 0.0063657

Step-by-step explanation:

Each die has 6 possible values, so a pair of dice have a total of 6*6=36 outcomes.

To find a sum of 10, the cases are:

(4,6), (5,5) and (6,4).

So to have a sum of 10 we have 3 cases among the 36 possible, therefore the probability is:

P(10) = 3/36 = 1/12

A)

If we want the sum of 10 in each of the three rolls, the probability is:

P(10 on three rolls) = P(10)^3 = (1/12)^3 = 1/1728 = 0.0005787

B)

If the sum is 10 in two of three rolls, in one roll we need the probability of the sum not being 10:

P(not 10) = 1 - P(10) = 1 - (1/12) = 11/12

So we have:

P(10 in two of three rolls) = P(10)^2 * P(not 10) = (1/12)^2 * (11/12)

P(10 in two of three rolls) = 11/1728 = 0.0063657

A jar consists of blue, red and green marbles. The probability of each of them is 2/7 , 3/k and 5/2k. Find the value of k.

Answers

Answer:

k = 77/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The jar consist of blue, red and green marbles . The probability of each of them can be described as follows.

probability of blue marbles = 2/7

probability of red marbles = 3/k

probability of green marbles = 5/2k

The sum of the individual probability is equals to 1. Therefore,

2/7 + 3/k + 5/2k = 1

collect like terms

(6 + 5)/2k = 1 - 2/7

11/2k =(7 - 2) /7

11/2k = 5/7

cross multiply

10k = 77

divide both sides by 10

k = 77/10

The​ half-life of a certain tranquilizer in the bloodstream is 47 hours. How long will it take for the drug to decay to 93​% of the original​ dosage? Use the exponential decay​ model, Upper A equals Upper A 0 e Superscript kt​, to solve.

Answers

Answer:

It will take 4.84 hours for the drug to decay to 93​% of the original​ dosage.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the half-life of a certain tranquilizer in the bloodstream is 47 hours.

The given exponential model is: [tex]A = A_0 e^{kt}[/tex]

Now, we know that A becomes half after 47 hours which means that;

[tex]A = 0.5 A_0[/tex]

Using this in the above equation we get;

[tex]A = A_0 e^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]0.5 A_0 = A_0 e^{(k\times 47)}[/tex]  where t = 47 hours

[tex]\frac{0.5 A_0}{A_0} = e^{(47k)}[/tex]

[tex]0.5 = e^{47k}[/tex]

Taking log on both sides we get;

[tex]ln(0.5) = ln(e^{47k})[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.5) =47k[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{ln(0.5)}{47}[/tex]

k = -0.015

Now, the time it will take for the drug to decay to 93​% of the original​ dosage is given by;

[tex]0.93 = e^{kt}[/tex]  where t is the required time

[tex]0.93 = e^{(-0.015 \times t)}[/tex]

Taking log on both sides we get;

[tex]ln(0.93) = ln(e^{-0.015t})[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.93) =-0.015t[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{ln(0.93)}{-0.015}[/tex]

t = 4.84 hours

Hence, it will take 4.84 hours for the drug to decay to 93​% of the original​ dosage.

You are getting on an elevator that is already filled with several people. You wonder if your weight will put the elevator over the maximum weight limit. You know that your weight is 132 pounds. In the equation below, p is the weight of all the people already on the elevator, and t is the total weight inside the elevator after you get on. The relationship between these two variables can be expressed by the following equation: t=p+132. What is the dependent variable?

A.The total weight inside the elevator after you get on.
B.The weight of all the people already on the elevator.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

T is the dependent variable

a dependent variable means it depends on something so if a number changes it will change the end result for T.

T is dependent on P since if the weight on the elevator changes the total weight will change. That is what makes it dependent.

Answer:

They are both dependent variables.

Diana serves 8 kg of fried rice for 12 persons. How many persons can eat 20 kg of
fried rice?

Answers

Answer:

30 persons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create a proportion using the following setup:

persons/rice=persons/rice

We know that 12 persons can eat 8 kilograms of fried rice.

12 persons/ 8 kg of rice= persons/rice

We also know that x (unknown) persons can eat 20 kilograms of fried rice.

12 persons/ 8 kg of rice= x persons/ 20 kg of rice

12/8=x/20

x is being divided by 20. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the equation by 20.

20(12/8)=(x/20)20

20*12/8=x

20*1.5=x

30=x

30 persons can eat 20 kilograms of fried rice.

Answer:

30 people

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Set up a proportion, 8kg/12 = 20kg/x

2) Do cross multiplication to solve for x

3) x = 30 people

Abigail wants to make a tapestry in the shape of a parallelogram that is 24 inches across the bottom and 36 inches tall. If she pieces smaller similar parallelograms that are 2 inches at the base and 3 inches tall, how many will she need to make the tapestry?

Answers

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

Abigail wants to produce a tapestry that will be in the shape of a parallelogram

The tapestry is 24 inches across the bottom and 36 inches tall

She pieces smaller simlar parallelograms that are 2 inches wide and 3 inches tall

The first step is to find the area of the whole tapestry

Area = base × height

Base= 24 inches

Height= 36 inches

Area= 24×36

= 864 square inches

The next step is calculate the area of the smaller pieces

Area= base × height

Base= 2 inches

Height= 3 inches

Area= 2×3

= 6 square inches

Therefore, the value needed to produce the tapestry can be calculated by dividing the area of the whole tapestry by the area of the smaller pieces

= 864/6

= 144

Hence Abigail will need 144 smaller similar parallelograms to make the tapestry.

Which polynomial was factored? x2 – 2x – 8 x2 + 2x – 8 x2 – 2x – 4 x2 + 2x – 4

Answers

Answer:

x² - 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebra tiles are tiles used to represent variables or numbers and are rectangular or square shaped.

1 is labeled + x squared, this gives x²

2 are labeled + x, this gives +x × 2 = +2x

4 tiles below + x squared are labeled negative x, this gives - x × 4 = - 4x

8 tiles below the + x tiles are labeled negative, this gives -1 × 8 = -8

Therefore to get the polynomial that was factored, we add all the terms. This gives :

+x² + (+ 2x) + (-4x) + (-8) = x² + 2x - 4x - 8 = x² - 2x - 8

Answers

Answer:

the first step to eliminate d is to multiply equation B by 5

second :(m,n) (-6,-11)

value of a can be substituted into equation D to solve the system of equations is 7b-1

Step-by-step explanation:

first equation:

4c=d-8 or 4c-d=-8

c=5d+8 or c-5d=8

so the first step to eliminate d is to multiply equation B by 5

second equation :

n=3m+7 or n-3m=7

n-2m=1

n-3m=7

solve :

1-eliminate n by subtracting two equation : : n-2m-(n-3m)=1-7

-2m+3m=-6

m=-6

substitute m: n-3(-6)=7 , then n+18=7

n=7-18=-11

Answers

Answer:

The box-and-whisker plot of this distribution is presented in the attached image to this solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

A box plot gives a visual representation of the distribution of the data, showing where most values lie and those values that greatly differ from the rest, called outliers.

A box and whiskers plot shows 5 major information about the distribution of data. It shows:

- The maximum variable.

- The minimum variable.

- The Median.

- The first quartile.

- The third quartile.

Further info such as the range and Inter quartile range can then be obtained from this 5-number summary.

The elements of the box plot are described thus;

The bottom side of the box represents the first quartile, and the top side, the third quartile. Therefore, the width of the central box represents the inter-quartile range.

The horizontal line inside the box is the median.

The lines extending from the box reach out to the minimum and the maximum values in the data set, as long as these values are not outliers. The ends of the whiskers are marked by two shorter horizontal lines.

Variables in the dataset, higher than Q3+(1.5×IQR) or lower than Q1-(1.5×IQR) are considered outliers and are usually shown using dots above the top whisker or below the bottom whisker.

The required boxplot for this question is given in the attached image to this solution.

The median for the boxplot isn't provided, but it was assumed to be midway between the first and third quartile.

Use the rational zero theorem, which of the following could not be a rational zero of: 6x^5+ax^3=bx+12? 1/2 -3/4 -2

Answers

Answer: x = -3/4 can not be a rational zero of the polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the polynomial:

6x^5 + ax^3 -bx -12 = 0.

The theorem says that:

If P(x) is a polynomial with integer coefficients, and p/q is a zero of P(x) then p is a factor of the constant term (in this case the constant term is -12) and q is a factor of the leading coefficient (in this case the leading coefficient is 6.).

The factors of -12  (different than itself) are (independent of the sign).

1, 2, 3, 4 and 6.

So p can be: 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 4, -4, 6, -6.

The factors of 6 are:

1, 2 and 3, so q can be 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3.

Then the option that can not be a zero of the polynomial is

x = -3/4

because the number in the denominator must be a factor of the leading coefficient, and 4 is not a factor of six.

Step-by-step explanation:

t = tennis balls

g = golf balls

70 = 5t+3g

85 = 2t+5g

Multiply the first equation by -2

-2(70 = 5t+3g)

-140 = -10t -6g

Multiply the second equation by 5

5(85 = 2t+5g)

425 = 10t + 25g

Add these new equation together to eliminate t

-140 = -10t -6g

425 = 10t + 25g

-------------------------------

285=0t+19g

Divide by 19

285/19 = g

15 = g

Now find t

85 = 2t+5g

85 = 2t +5(15)

85 = 2t + 75

10= 2t

t =5

Let the cost of a can of tennis balls be $x and that of a sleeve of golf balls be $y.

5x + 3y = 70

2x + 5y = 85

(5x + 3y) x 2 = 70 x 2

10x + 6y = 140

(2x + 5y) x 5 = 85 x 5

10x + 25y = 425

10x + 25y -10x - 6y = 425 - 140

19y = 285

y = 15

2x + 5y = 85

2x + 75 = 85

2x = 10

x = 5

Therefore the cost of a sleeve of golf balls is $15 and that of a can of tennis balls is $5.
