A bookshelf contains 9 mysteries and 7 biographies books. A book is randomly selected and not replaced.
What is the probability that the first book is mystery and the second is the biography?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 7/30

Step-by-step explanation:

According to counting rules, we use permutation when we want to choose successively and without replacement, as given in this problem

Rule of permutation: nPr = n! /(n-r)!

where: n:objects and r:sample

n of mysteries=9  ;   r of mysteries=1  ;  ⇒ 9P1

n of biographies=7  ;  r of biographies=1  ;  ⇒ 7P1

n of total books=9+7=15  ;  r of total books=2  ;  ⇒15P2

Probability=( 9P1 x 7P1 ) / 15P2 = 49/210 = 7/30

Hope this helps :)

the radius of a circle is 10.8ft the length of a chord is 12ft what is the approximate distance of the chord from the center of the circle

Answers

Answer:

9.0 ft (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The chord is the base of an isosceles triangle with sides of the radius.

To calculate the approximate distance of the chord from the center of the circle, we need to find the height of this triangle.

[tex]\sf height=\sqrt{s^2-(\frac{b}{2})^2}[/tex]

(where s is the side length and b is the base length of an isosceles triangle)

Given:

s = radius = 10.8 ftb = chord = 12 ft

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies \sf height & =\sqrt{10.8^2-\left(\frac{12}{2}\right)^2}\\ & = \sqrt{116.64-36}\\ & = \sqrt{80.64}\\ & = 8.979977728...\\ & = 9.0\: \sf ft\:(nearest\:tenth) \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hypotenuse=10.ftHalf of chord=Base=12/2=6ft

Apply Pythagorean theorem

Answers

The true statement for f(x)=b^x is the function is always decreasing function.

We have given,

f(x)=b^x where 0<b<1

What is the domain?

Domain is all possible values of x for which any function is defined

We can select any values of x for which function

It will be defined for all real x

So, the domain is [tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

The range is all possible values of y for which x is defined

we are given that b is positive

The value of the function will always be positive

So, the range is  [tex](0,\infty)[/tex]

y>0

The x-intercept:

Set f(x)=0 and then we can solve for x

f(x)=b^x=0

x is undefined

The x-intercept does not exist

Increasing or decreasing:

Since, 0<b<1

The b is a positive value less than 1

Ian's house and land have a market price of $225,000 and an assessed value of 55% of that amount. his state has a property tax rate of 0.088. how much does ian pay in property tax every year? a. $19,800 b. $18,900 c. $10,890 d. $8,910

Answers

Ian pay $10,890 in property tax every year if the assessed value of 55% of that amount and his state has a property tax rate of 0.088 option (c) is correct.

What is property tax?

It is defined as the amount paid by the owner of the property such as land, buildings etc.

We have:

Lan's house and land have a market = $225,000

Assessed value = 55% ⇒ 0.55

Property tax rate = 0.088

We know the formula for property tax is given by:

Property tax = tax rate×assessed value×market value

Put the values in the above formula, we get:

Property tax = 0.088×0.55×225000

= $10,890

Thus, Ian pay $10,890 in property tax every year if the assessed value of 55% of that amount and his state has a property tax rate of 0.088.

Use the function f(x) = x2 – 2x + 8 and the graph of g(x) to determine the difference between the maximum value of g(x) and the minimum value of f(
2.

Answers

Answer:

3 or 4, I am confused

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll assume that f(x) = x2 – 2x + 8 is meant to be f(x) = x^2 – 2x + 8

Find the value of f(x) for x = 2:

f(x) = x^2 – 2x + 8

f(2) = (2)^2 – 2*(2) + 8

f(2) = 4 - 4 + 8

f(2) = 8

=============

From the graph, we can find that g(2) = 11

The differece between g(2) and f(2) is thus:

   11 - 8 = 3

3 is not an option, so I wonder if the question is asking for the difference between the absolute maximum of g(x) and f(2).  If so, the maximum for g(x) is 12, at x = 3.  

This would lead to a difference of 12 - 8, or 4.  This is still not an option, so I'm confused.  Perhaps you can find my error and find the ciorrect answer, or at least one that appears in the options.

interest: $_____
+$2,225.50

=$____(total)

Answers

Answer: $2400

Step-by-step explanation:

$2225.50 x 1.2% =  $26.71 + $2225.50 =  $2252.21  - Year 1

$2252.21 x 1.2% = $27.03 + $2252.21 =  $2279.23  - Year 2

$2279.23 x 1.2% = $27.35 + $2279.23 =  $2306.58  - Year 3

$2306.58 x 1.2% = $27.68 + $2334.26 =  $2334.26  - Year 4

$2334.26 x 1.2% = $28.01 + $2362.27 =   $2362.27  - Year 5

$2362.27 x 1.2% = $28.35 + $2362.27 =  $2390.62  - Year 6

$2390.62 x 1.2% = $28.69 + $2390.62 =  $2419.31  - Year 7

$2419.31         x 1.2% = $29.03 + $2419.31 =  $2448.34  - Year 8

Rounded to the nearest 100th = $2400

The population standard deviation for the price of the Big Mac is six cents. If

we want to be 82% confident that the sample mean price is within three cents

of the true population mean price, how many randomly selected stores must

be analyzed?

Round your answer up to the whole number, i. E. , 4. 02 stores will be rounded

to 5 stores.

Answers

Using the z-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the population, it is found that 8 stores must be analyzed.

What is a z-distribution confidence interval?

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation for the population.

The margin of error is given by:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In this problem, we have an 82% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.82[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.82}{2} = 0.91[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.34.

The standard deviation for the population is of [tex]\sigma = 0.06[/tex], and we want a margin of error of M = 0.03, hence we solve for n to find the sample size needed.

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03 = 1.34\frac{0.06}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.34 \times 0.06[/tex]

Simplifying by 0.03:

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.34 \times 2[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.34 \times 2)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 7.2[/tex]

Rounding up, 8 stores must be analyzed.

5x= 180- 40

Our solution starts from here :

Step 1 : Cancelling π with π :

[tex] \longmapsto \: \cancel{\pi} \: r {}^{2} h = 225 \cancel{\pi}[/tex]

Step 2 : Substituting value of radius which is 5 cm in the formula :

[tex] \longmapsto \: 25h = 225[/tex]

Step 3 : Transposing 25 to right hand side :
