A classmate walks into class and states that he has an extra ticket to a chamber orchestra concert on Friday night. He asks everyone in the class to put their name on a piece of paper and put it in a basket. He plans to draw from the basket to choose the person who will attend the concert with him. If there are 38 other people in class that night, what is your chance of being chosen to attend the concert

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.56% chance of being selected

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 39[/tex] --- you and 38 others

Required

Chance of you being selected

To do this, we simply calculate the probability using:

[tex]Pr(x) = \frac{n(x)}{n}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]n(x)= 1[/tex] --- i.e you are just 1 person

So:

[tex]Pr(x) = \frac{1}{39}[/tex]

[tex]Pr(x) = 0.0256[/tex]

Express as percentage

[tex]Pr(x) = 2.56\%[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{-2}{x-1}+5\\\\[/tex]

The graph is shown below.

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

Explanation:

Notice that if we multiplied the denominator (x-1) by 5, then we get 5(x-1) = 5x-5.

This is close to 5x-7, except we're off by 2 units.

In other words,

5x-7 = (5x-5)-2

since -7 = -5-2

Based on that, we can then say,

[tex]g(x) = \frac{5x-7}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = \frac{5x-5-2}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = \frac{(5x-5)-2}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = \frac{5(x-1)-2}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = \frac{5(x-1)}{x-1}+\frac{-2}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = 5+\frac{-2}{x-1}\\\\g(x) = \frac{-2}{x-1}+5[/tex]

This answer can be reached through alternative methods of polynomial long division or synthetic division (two related yet slightly different methods).

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

Compare the equation [tex]g(x) = \frac{-2}{x-1}+5\\\\[/tex] to the form [tex]g(x) = \frac{a}{x-h}+k\\\\[/tex]

We can see that

a = -2h = 1k = 5

The vertical asymptote is x = 1, which is directly from the h = 1 value. If we tried plugging x = 1 into g(x), then we'll get a division by zero error. So this is why the vertical asymptote is located here.

The horizontal asymptote is y = 5, which is directly tied to the k = 5 value. As x gets infinitely large, then y = g(x) slowly approaches y = 5. We never actually arrive to this exact y value. Try plugging in g(x) = 5 and solving for x. You'll find that no solution for x exists.

The point (h,k) is the intersection of the horizontal and vertical asymptote. It's effectively the "center" of the hyperbola, so to speak.

The graph is shown below. Some points of interest on the hyperbola are

(-1,6)(0,7) .... y intercept(1.4, 0) .... x intercept(2, 3)(3, 4)

Another thing to notice is that this function is always increasing. This means as we move from left to right, the function curve goes uphill.

Step-by-step explanation:

2.4 Mbps in the sort data set is the 30th data point. Therefore 29 numbers out of 50 are less than 2.4 Mbps.

[tex]=\frac{29}{50} = 0.58 =58\%\\\\[/tex]

B. (0, 3), (-2, 5), (-3, 2)

C. (3, 0), (5, -2), (2, -3)

D. (-5, -2), (-7, 0), (-4, 1)

Answers

Answer:

A. (-2, -5), (0, -7), (1, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The following transformation is applied:

[tex](x,y) \rightarrow (y + 2, -x - 4)[/tex]

To find the range:

We apply the transformation to the points in the domain. Thus:

[tex](1,-4) \rightarrow (-4 + 2, -1 - 4) = (-2, -5)[/tex]

[tex](3,-2) \rightarrow (-2 + 2, -3 - 4) = (0, -7)[/tex]

[tex](0,-1) \rightarrow (-1 + 2, 0 - 4) = (1, -4)[/tex]

Thus the correct answer is given by option a.

If f(x) =4x2 - 8x - 20 and g(x) = 2x + a, find the value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).

Answers

Answer:

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

The composite function of f(x) and g(x) is given by:

[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 20[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 2x + a[/tex]

So

[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x + a) = 4(2x + a)^2 - 8(2x + a) - 20 = 4(4x^2 + 4ax + a^2) - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 + 16ax + 4a^2 - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 +(16a-16)x + 4a^2 - 8a - 20[/tex]

Value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).

This means that when [tex]x = 0, f(g(x)) = 25[/tex]. So

[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 20 = 25[/tex]

[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 45 = 0[/tex]

Solving a quadratic equation, by Bhaskara:

[tex]\Delta = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(-45) = 784[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-(-8) + \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = \frac{36}{8} = 4.5[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-(-8) - \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = -\frac{20}{8} = -2.5[/tex]

The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.

aulo uses an instrument called a densitometer to check that he has the correct ink colour.

For this print job the acceptable range for the reading on the densitometer is 1.8 ± 10%.

What is the acceptable range for the densitometer reading?

Answers

Answer:

The range is from 1.62 to 1.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve for the percentage of the particular value if the range of the answer should be +/- 10% of the particular value.

The value given is 1.8, we thus want to find 10% of that: 1.8 * 10/100 = 0.18

Then, add this value to the original value of 1.8: 1.8+0.18 = 1.98

Furthermore, subtract .18 from from the original value of 1.8: 1.8-0.18 = 1.62

The range will be between these two numbers, so the range is from 1.62 to 1.98.

Forces of 9 lbs and 13 lbs act at a 38º angle to each other. Find the magnitude of the resultant force and the angle that the resultant makes with each force.

Answers

Answer: [tex]R=20.84\ lb\quad 22.57^{\circ},15.43^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two forces of 9 and 13 lbs acts [tex]38^{\circ}[/tex] angle to each other

The resultant of the two forces is given by

[tex]\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{a^2+b^2+2ab\cos \theta}[/tex]

Insert the values

[tex]\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{9^2+13^2+2(9)(13)\cos 38^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{81+169+184.394}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{434.394}\\\Rightarrow R=20.84\ lb[/tex]

Resultant makes an angle of

[tex]\Rightarrow \alpha=\tan^{-1}\left( \dfrac{b\sin \theta}{a+b\cos \theta}\right)\\\\\text{Considering 9 lb force along the x-axis}\\\\\Rightarrow \alpha =\tan^{-1}\left( \dfrac{13\sin 38^{\circ}}{9+13\cos 38^{\circ}}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow \alpha =\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{8}{19.244})\\\\\Rightarrow \alpha=22.57^{\circ}[/tex]

So, the resultant makes an angle of [tex]22.57^{\circ}[/tex] with 9 lb force

Angle made with 13 lb force is [tex]38^{\circ}-22.57^{\circ}=15.43^{\circ}[/tex]

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.

a) Find the odds in favor of getting a red king.

b) Find the odds against getting a red king.

Answers

Answer:

(a)So, there are 2 kings in red- one of hearts and the other of diamonds. Therefore, the probability of selecting a red king from a deck of cards= 2/52 or 1/26.

(b) There are 6 red face cards in a 52-card deck (so 46 other cards). PROBABILITIES compare the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes: The PROBABILITY of getting a red face card is 6/52 = 3/26.

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be 1/26. And the odds against getting a red king will be 25/26.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.

Total events = 52

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be

Favorable events = 2

Then the probability will be

P = 2/52

P = 1/26

The odds against getting a red king will be

q = 1 – P

q = 1 – 1/26

q = 25/26

Determine the angles of b and c . Let a =40’ if b is a compliment of a and c is a supplement of b find these measures

Answers

Answer:

b = 50°

c = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles A and B are complementary if:

A + B = 90°

And two angles are supplementary if:

A + B = 180°

Then, we know that:

a = 40°

b is a complement of a (this means that a and b are complementary angles)

c is a supplement of b (this means that b and c are supplementary angles).

From the first statement, we have that:

b + a = 90°

Replacing the value of a we get

b + 40° = 90°

b = 90° - 40° = 50°

b = 50°

And now we can use that b and c are supplementary, then:

b + c = 180°

replacing the value of b we get:

50° + c  = 180°

c = 180° - 50° = 130°

c = 130°

Then the values we wanted are:

b = 50°

c = 130°
