Answer 2

The probability that exactly 5 are sedimentary is from a shipment which contains 9 igneous, 7 sedimentary, and 7 metamorphic rocks is 21/33649.

What is combination?

Combination is the way of arrangement or the collection of items in the particular order. The order of this group of items does not matter in the combination type of arrangement.

A shipment contains 9 igneous, 7 sedimentary, and 7 metamorphic rocks. If 7 rocks are selected at random, find the probability that exactly 5 are sedimentary.

Number of ways to choose 5 sedimentary from 7  sedimentary is,

[tex]^7C_5=\dfrac{7!}{(7-5)!5!}\\^7C_5=\dfrac{7\times6\times5!}{2!5!}\\^7C_5=\dfrac{7\times6}{2\times1}\\^7C_5=21[/tex]

There are total 23 rocks (9+7+7). Number of ways to choose 7 rocks from 23 rocks is,

[tex]^{23}C_5=\dfrac{23!}{(23-5)!5!}\\^{23}C_5=\dfrac{23!}{18!5!}\\^{23}C_5=33649[/tex]


Thus, the probability that exactly 5 are sedimentary is,

[tex]P=\dfrac{21}{33649}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that exactly 5 are sedimentary is from a shipment which contains 9 igneous, 7 sedimentary, and 7 metamorphic rocks is 21/33649.

This is Pythagorean theorem.

When I say ^2 I mean to the power of 2.


The question is asking me to solve for a.


Then give me b and c which is b = 17 1/3 and c = 16.


How do I solve for a when b is greater than c? Won’t that give me a negative a? You can’t have a negative a right?

a = 23.588

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 23.588 (I rounded to thousandths but you can round to whatever)

Hello there,

I just looked into the question and you are absolutely right whatever you inferred.I think the question might be wrong.The value of c should be greater than b.I guess it will like this:[tex]b = 16 \: \: \: c = 17 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]The values should be like this.I am solving the equation by this:[tex] {a}^{2} = {c}^{2} - {b}^{2} \\ = > {a}^{2} = {(17 \frac{1}{3}) }^{2} - {(16)}^{2} \\ = > {a}^{2} = {( \frac{52}{3} )}^{2} - {(16)}^{2} \\ = > {a}^{2} = ( \frac{52}{3} - 16)( \frac{52}{3} + 16) \\ = > {a}^{2} = ( \frac{52 - 48}{3} )( \frac{52 + 48}{3} ) \\ = > {a}^{2} = \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{100}{3} \\ = > {a}^{2} = \frac{400}{9} \\ = > a = \sqrt{ \frac{400}{9} } \\ = > a = \frac{20}{3} \\ = > a = 6 \frac{2}{3} [/tex]So, the value of a is [tex]a = 6 \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

what is -12x<60

Answers

Answer:

x > -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-12x < 60

To solve the equation for x, we want x to be by itself on one side.  Let's start by dividing both sides by -12:

-12x/-12 < 60/-12

When dividing or multiplying by a negative number, we have to turn around the inequality sign, so now we have:

x > 60/-12

And 60/-12 = -5, so:

x > -5

A bicycle has a listed price of $660.95 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 7.25%, find the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax included.
Round your answer to the nearest cent, as necessary

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $708.87

Step-by-step explanation:

The price with tax included is ...

  660.95 + 0.0725×660.95 = 660.95(1 +0.0725) = 708.87

The total cost of the bicycle with tax is $708.87.

Answer:

$ 708.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Think that, a bicycle has listed price of $ 100,

Listed price              Tax rate            Total cost of the bicycle with sales tax

$ 100                           7.25                       107.25

$ 660.95                                                     x

Let the Total price of the bicycle be x

Now you can create a equation like this,

[tex]\frac{100}{660.95}=\frac{107.25}{x}[/tex]

Use cross multiplication, and find out the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax.

[tex]100x=660.95*107.25[/tex]

[tex]100x=70886.8875[/tex]

[tex]\frac{100x}{100} =\frac{70886.8875}{100} \\[/tex]

[tex]x=708.8688[/tex]

Therefore, the total cost of the bicycle with sales tax is,

≈ $ 708.87

A stockbroker estimates that at the end of the year, there is a 40% chance a stock will be worth $50,
a 35% chance it will be worth $60 and a 25% chance it will be worth $70. What expected value
does this broker assign to this stock's end-of-the-year price?

Answers

The expected value  that  this broker assign to this stock's end-of-the-year price is $58.50.

Using this formula

Expected value=Stock worth at $50+ Stock worth at $60+ Stock worth at $70

Where:

Stock worth at $50=40% chance

Stock worth at $60=35% chance

Stock worth at $70=25% chance

Let plug in the formula

Expected value=(40%×$50)+($35%×$60)+($25%×$70)

Expected value=$20+$21+$17.5

Expected value=$58.50

Inconclusion the expected value  that  this broker assign to this stock's end-of-the-year price is $58.50.

If the pitcher threw just 6 pitches in the fifth inning, what is the greatest number of pitches the pitcher can throw per inning he wishes to pitch nine innings? Write and solve an inequality to answer this part.

Answers

Answer:

at most 17 pitches per inning

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a baseball pitcher makes 53 pitches in the first 4 innings of a game and plans to pitch in the next 3 innings.

We need to write and solve an inequality to find the possible average pitches per inning the pitcher made in the next 3 innings if the pitcher is assigned a maximum of 105 pitches.

From part (a) we know  3 p + 53 3p+53 represents the total number of pitches made if the pitcher makes an average of  p pitches per inning in the next 3 innings.

If the pitcher can make at most 105 pitches, then:

3 p + 53 ≤ 105 3p+53≤105 ​  

To solve the inequality, first subtract 53 on both sides of the inequality to isolate the variable term:

3 p + 53 − 53 ≤ 105 − 53 3 p ≤ 53      

3p+53≤105 [tex]p\leq 17\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

at most 17 pitches per inning

2sin(θ)[4cos(θ)-1] = 0

2sin(θ) = 0

sin(θ) = 0

θ = πk

4cos(θ)-1 = 0

4cos(θ) = 1

cos(θ) = 1/4

θ ≈ 1.318+2πk, 4.965+2πk

How do I determine z ∈ C:

[tex](\frac{3-2i}{1+i} - \frac{5+3i}{1+2i} )z = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{5}i[/tex]

Answers

Simplify the coefficient of z on the left side. We do this by rationalizing the denominators and multiplying them by their complex conjugates:

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{3-2i}{1+i}\cdot\dfrac{1-i}{1-i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i}\cdot\dfrac{1-2i}{1-2i}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{(3-2i)(1-i)}{1-i^2} - \dfrac{(5+3i)(1-2i)}{1-(2i)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{3 - 2i - 3i + 2i^2}{1-(-1)} - \dfrac{5 + 3i - 10i - 6i^2}{1-4(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{3 - 5i + 2(-1)}2 - \dfrac{5 - 7i - 6(-1)}5[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{1 - 5i}2 - \dfrac{11 - 7i}5[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{1 - 5i}2\cdot\dfrac55 - \dfrac{11 - 7i}5\cdot\dfrac22[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = \dfrac{5 - 25i - 22 + 14i}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3-2i}{1+i} - \dfrac{5+3i}{1+2i} = -\dfrac{17 + 11i}{10}[/tex]

So, the equation is simplified to

[tex]-\dfrac{17+11i}{10} z = \dfrac12 - \dfrac{2i}5[/tex]

Let's combine the fractions on the right side:

[tex]\dfrac12 - \dfrac{2i}5 = \dfrac12\cdot\dfrac55 - \dfrac{2i}5\cdot\dfrac22[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac12 - \dfrac{2i}5 = \dfrac{5-4i}{10}[/tex]

Then

[tex]-\dfrac{17+11i}{10} z = \dfrac{5-4i}{10}[/tex]

reduces to

[tex]-(17+11i) z = 5-4i[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -1/(17 + 11i) :

[tex]\dfrac{-(17+11i)}{-(17+11i)} z = \dfrac{5-4i}{-(17+11i)}[/tex]

[tex]z = -\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i}[/tex]

Finally, simplify the right side:

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} \cdot \dfrac{17-11i}{17-11i}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{(5-4i)(17-11i)}{17^2-(11i)^2}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{85 - 68i - 55i + 44i^2}{289-121(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{85 - 68i - 55i + 44(-1)}{410}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{41 - 123i}{410}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{41 - 41\cdot3i}{410}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{5-4i}{17+11i} = -\dfrac{1 - 3i}{10}[/tex]

So, the solution to the equation is

[tex]z = -\dfrac{1-3i}{10} = \boxed{-\dfrac1{10} + \dfrac3{10}i}[/tex]
