Tom plants 3 seeds.
The probability that a seed will germinate is 4/5.

A) Calculate the probability that all 3 seeds will germinate.
B) Calculate the probability that at least one of the seeds will germinate.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 64/125

B. 124/125.

Step-by-step explanation:

A).  As the events ( germinate or not germinate) are independent we multiply the probabilities.

Prob(All seeds germinate) = 4/5*4/5*4/5 =  64/125.

B). Probability of at least one germinating =  1 - probability that none germinate

Probability of  1 seed not germinating = 1 -45 = 1/5.

So Prob(at least one germinating)

= 1 - (1/5 * 1/5 * 1/5)

= 1 - 1/125

= 124/125.

Answer 2

The probability that all 3 seeds will germinate is 64/125 and the probability that at least one of the seeds will germinate is 124/125.

What is probability?

The probability of an event occurring is defined by probability.

Probability is also called chance because if you flip a coin then the probability of coming head and tail is nothing but chances that either head will appear or not.

(A)

The probability of all seeds will germinate will be the product of individual probability since all events are independent.

4/5 × 4/5 × 4/5 =  64/125.

B)

Probability of at least one germinating =  1 - the probability that none germinate

The probability of  1 seed not germinating will be given as,

1 -4/5 = 1/5

Thus, the probability of all three seeds not germinating = 1/5 ×  1/5 ×  1/5

Thus, the probability that at least 1 of the seeds will germinate.

⇒ 1 - (1/5 × 1/5 × 1/5)

⇒ 1 - 1/125

⇒ 124/125

Hence "The probability that all 3 seeds will germinate is 64/125 and the probability that at least one of the seeds will germinate is 124/125".

Sparkle Cleaners uses 2/3 of a jug of window cleaner in 3 weeks. How much window cleaner do they use in 1 week?

Answers

Answer: 2/9th of a bottle

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of a jug = 3 weeks

1 week =( 1 x 2/3) / 3

= 2/3 x 1/3 = 2/9

They use 2/9 of a jug of window cleaner in 1 week.

What is a fraction?

Fractions represent the parts of a whole or collection of objects.

A fraction has two parts. The number on the top of the line is called the numerator and the number on the top of the line is called the denominator.

Now it is given that,

Cleaner used =  2/3 of a jug

Number of weeks = 3

So, Cleaner used in 1 week = Cleaner used / Number of weeks

Cleaner used in 1 week = (2/3) / 3

Cleaner used in 1 week = 2/9 of a jug

Thus,they use 2/9 of a jug of window cleaner in 1 week.

Answers

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the scale factor by 39 / 30

Take that times 10

1.3 x 10 = 13

Since the questions states these two shapes are "similar" the side will have identical scale factors.

Divide the longest side of the bigger shape to the smaller shape.

39 / 30 = 1.3

The scale factor is 1.3.

Now, multiply the shortest side if the smaller shape by the scale factor.

10 * 1.3 = 13

Therefore, the length of w is 13mm

Given a right triangle with leg a = 6 and hypotenuse c = 10. Find the three heights, the three medians, the three bisectors, and the radii of the inscribed and circumscribed circles.​

Answers

Answer:

The three heights are 4.8, 6, 8The three medians are 5, 2√13, √73The three angle bisectors are (24/7)√2, 3√5, (8/3)√10The radii of the incircle and circumcircle are 2 and 5, respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The other leg of the right triangle is ...

  b = √(10² -6²) = √64 = 8

The area of the triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh = 1/2(6)(8) = 24

Then the height to the long side is ...

  h = 2A/c = 48/10 = 4.8

The three heights are 4.8, 6, 8.

__

b) The medians to the hypotenuse is half its length, because that is also the radius of the circumcircle: 10/2 = 5.

The medians to the legs are computed from the Pythagorean theorem:

  median to "b" = √(4² +6²) = √52 = 2√13

  median to "a" = √(3² +8²) = √73

The three medians are 5, 2√13, √73.

__

c) The angle bisectors to the legs can be found in a fashion similar to the medians, using the angle bisector theorem to locate the point of intersection on the leg.

The angle bisector to "b" divides it into segments in the ratio 6:10, so the point  of intersection is 6/(6+10)×8 = 3 units from the right angle. Then its length is ...

  bisector to "b" = √(6² +3²) = √45 = 3√5

The angle bisector to "a" divides it into segments in the ratio 8:10, so the point of intersection is 8/(8+10)×6 = 8/3 units from the right angle. Then its length is ...

  bisector to "a" = √(8² +(8/3)²) = (8/3)√10

I find it easier to compute the bisector to the hypotenuse by considering the hypotenuse to be a line with x- and y-intercepts at 8 and 6. Then its equation can be 3x+4y=24, and its intersection with the line y=x will be x = y = 24/7. The  length of the segment to that point is ...

  bisector to "c" = (24/7)√2

The three angle bisectors are (24/7)√2, 3√5, (8/3)√10.

__

d) The radius of the inscribed circle can be found from the formula ...

  r = √((s-a)(s-b)(s-c)/s) . . . .  where s is the semiperimeter = 24/2 = 12

  r = √(2×4×6/12) = 2

The hypotenuse is the diameter of the circumscribed circle, so the radius of that circle is c/2 = 5.

The radii of the incircle and circumcircle are 2 and 5, respectively.

Circumscribing a rectangle around the triangle SQR, as shown in the figure, we see that the rectangle has dimensions 3 by 6, so its area is 18 square units.


We can also see that the area between the rectangle and the triangle SQR consists of 3 right triangles with dimensions 2 by 3; 6 by 2, and 1 by 4.

The area of there 3 triangles is (2*3)/2 + (6*2)/2 +(1*4)/2 = 3+6+2=11. 


Thus, the area of the triangle is what is left from removing the areas of the 3 surrounding triangles from the area of the rectangle:

A greenhouse contained both 6-inch high geraniums and 3 inch high geraniums. The 6-inch high geraniums were taken out of the greenhouse in early spring and grew at a rate of 1 inch per week. The 3 inch high geraniums remained in the greenhouse and grew at a rate of 1 (1/2) inches per week. After the 6-inch high geraniums were taken outside, in how many weeks were both groups of geraniums the same height.

Answers

Answer:

6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of weeks be x.

Then we have an equation:

6 + 1*x = 3 + 1 1/2 x6 + x = 3 + 1.5x1.5x - x = 6 - 30.5x = 3x = 3/0.5x = 6 weeks

So after 6 weeks both 6-inch and 3-inch geraniums will have same height

4x-k=17 solve for x

Answers

Answer:

k = -17 + 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4x + -1k = 17

Reorder the terms:

-1k + 4x = 17

Solving

-1k + 4x = 17

Solving for variable 'k'.

Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4x' to each side of the equation.

-1k + 4x + -4x = 17 + -4x

Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0

-1k + 0 = 17 + -4x

-1k = 17 + -4x

Divide each side by '-1'.

k = -17 + 4x

what is the solution for x^2 +14x +15​

Answers

...................................

Step-by-step explanation:

the solution are

x = 1 or x = -15

x^2 + 14x - 15 =0

x^2 + 14x = 15

to write the left hand side as a perfect square we add 49 to both sides :

x^2 + 14x + 49 = 15 + 49

x^2 + 2.x.7 + 7^2 = 64

using the identity (a^2 + b^2) = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

(x + 7)^2 = 64

x + 7 = √64 or x + 7 = -√64

x = 8 - 7 or x = - 8 - 7

= 1 = - 15

At the Boxer carnival, you can exchange 40 tickets for various assortments of
prizes. Some of those assortments are below. How many tickets does it take
to get a single tacky mirror?
1 goldfish, 2 tacky mirrors, 1 stuffed tiger
5 goldfish, 1 stuffed tiger
2 goldfish, 3 tacky mirrors

Answers

Answer:

g = number of tickets for goldfish

t = number of tickets for tacky mirrors

s = number of tickets for stuffed tiger

1g + 2t + 1s = 40

5g +     + 1s = 40

2g + 3t         = 40

using the second equatin we can find a value for s

1s = 40 -5g

now substitute in the first equation to get rid of s

1g + 2t + (40-5g) = 40

-4g + 2t         = 0

now use this new equation with equation 3 and solve for one of the values

-4g + 2t = 0

2g + 3t  = 40

multipy the second equation by 2 and then combine

-4g + 2t = 0

 4g + 6t = 80

8t = 80

t = 10  (so it takes 10 tickets to get a takcy mirror)

2g + 3(10) = 40

2g = 10

g = 5  (five tickets to get a goldfish)

s = 40 -5(5)

s = 15  (fifteen tickets for a stuffed tiger)

1(5) + 2(10) + 1(15) (substitute back in the first equation)

5 + 20 + 15

40                    it works!
