In a box of highlighters there are 8 which have dried up and will not write. the box contains 10 red, 15 blue, 5 green and 10 yellow highlighters. Two
highlighters are randomly picked without replacement in succession from the
box. Find the probability that the highlighters are of the different colours.

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that it will be a blue highlighters is 3 / 10.

In statistics, what does a probability mean?

Simply put, probability is the likelihood that something will occur. When we don't know how an event will turn out, we can discuss the likelihood or likelihood of several outcomes. Statistics is the study of events that follow a probability distribution.

the highlighters which are dried up and will not write or eight

number of red highlighters = 10

number of blue highlighters 15

number of green highlighters = 5

number of yellow highlighters = 10

therefore the total number highlighters in the box

= 10 + 10 + 15 + 5 + 10 = 50

probability of Blue = number of blue highlighters

Total number of highlighters

= 15 /50 = 3/10 = 0.3

the probability that it will be a blue highlighters is 3 / 10

Oscar is building a fence and purchases three boards that each measure
2.91 meters long. How many meters of fence board did Oscar purchase?

Answers

Oscar bought 8.73 meters of fence board to build the fence.

The metric system and the International Systems of Units both use the metre (m), also spelt as meter, as the basic unit of length (SI). In the British Imperial and American Customary systems, it is equivalent to roughly 39.37 inches.

A fence is a building used to enclose a space, usually outdoors. It is often made of posts joined by boards, wire, rails, or nets.

Oscar purchases three boards that measure 2.91 meters long each to build a fence.

Let say the length of one board be x = 2.91 meters.

Then the total length of fence board Oscar purchases is:

= 3x = 3 × 2.91 meters = 8.73 meters

Hence Oscar purchased 8.73 meters of fence board.

Use the fact that 1 kilometer = 0.62 miles to convert 3,070 meters to miles.

Round to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer: 1.90 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion rate for meters to kilometers is 1 meter for 0.001 kilometers. Using this rate you can do, [tex]3070m*\frac{0.001km}{1m}[/tex]. The m units cancel and you're left with 3.07km. Since we are given the conversion rate of 1 kilometer = 0.62 miles, we can do, [tex]3.07km*\frac{0.62mi}{1km}[/tex]. again the km units cancel and you're left with 1.9034 mi. Rounded to the nearest hundredth to get 1.90.

simplify (3 * -8) plus (2x+5)-(4x-8)​

Answers

The simplified value of the given expression is  -11 - 2x.

BODMAS stands for Brackets of Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

Here, we are given an expression as follows-

(3 * -8) + (2x+5) - (4x-8)​

According to the rules of BODMAS, brackets must be solved first. Hence, we simplify the terms in brackets first as given below-

(-24) + (2x + 5) - (4x - 8)

Opening up the brackets we get-

-24 + 2x + 5 - 4x + 8

= -24 + 5 + 8 + 2x - 4x

= -24 + 13 -2x

= -11 - 2x

A ball was thrown off a bridge. The table relates to the height of the ball above the ground in feet to the time in seconds after it was thrown. Use the data to enter a quadratic model in vertex form and convert it to standard form. Use the model to find the height of the ball at 1.5 seconds.​

Answers

The peak height reached at 144 feet, and the graph passing through points (0, 120), (1, 144), (2, 120), gives;

1. The vertex form of a quadratic equation is f(x) = a•(x - h)² + k

Where;

a = The leading coefficient

(h, k) = The coordinates of the vertex.

Let t represent the time of travel of the ball and let h represent the height.

From the given table, we have;

f(t) = a•(t - h)² + k

f(0) = 120 = a•(0 - h)² + k = a•h² + k

120 = a•h² + k

f(1) = 144 = a•(1 - h)² + k = a•(h² - 2•h + 1) + k

f(1) = a•(h² - 2•h + 1) + k

f(1) - f(0) = 144 - 120 = 24 = -((2•h - 1)•a

24 = -((2•h - 1)•a

f(2) = 120 = a•(2 - h)² + k

f(2) - f(1) = -24 = -((2•h - 3)•a

(f(1) - f(0)) - (f(2) - f(1)) = 48 = -2•a

Therefore;

a = -24

24 = -((2•h - 1)•a

24 = -((2•h - 1)×(-24)

-1 = -((2•h - 1)

2•h - 1 = 1

h = 2/2 = 1

h = 1

120 = a•(2 - h)² + k

120 = (-24)•(2 - 1)² + k

k = 120 + 24 = 144

k = 144

Which gives;

The vertex form is y = -24•(x-1)² + 144

From the vertex form, we have;

y = -24•(x-1)² + 144 = -24•(x²-2•t+1) + 144

y = -24•(x²-2•tlx+1)+ 144 = -24•x²+48•x - 24 + 144

y = -24•x²+48•x + 120

y = -24•x² + 48•x - 24 + 144 = -24•x²+ 48•x + 120

y = -24•x² + 48•x + 120

The height of the ball after 1.5 seconds is

y = -24×1.5² + 48×1.5 + 120 = 138

The height of the ball at t = 1.5 seconds is 138 feet

What is −10 + |−4| − |−12|?

Answers

Answer:

-18

Step-by-step explanation:

-10 + |-4| - |-12|       Since there are the | |, then any negative number inside would become a positive as it will become its absolute value, which for -4, would be 4, because it is 4 spots away from the 0 on a number line and vice versa.

-10 + 4 - 12   Answering from left to right,

-10 + 4, if you would rather make it so they are both equal, you change the + to the opposite which would be - and change the 4 back to a negative because that is what it would be if you changed the equation to be subtraction instead to be easier as they would both be negatives now, so you would subtract -10 - -4 and get -6.

-6 - 12. Again, switch the - to the opposite, which is +, and then make 12 the opposite that it was before so they both share the same symbol, making it

-6 + -12, which would be -18.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify ((b^4)^4) / ((b^2)^3).First lets simplify the numerator. ((b^4)^4). The notation is b to the fourth power, to the fourth power, which is multiplying sixteen b’s. That explains why we multiple the exponents, to get b^(16) for the numerator.Similarly we simplify the denominator by multiplying the exponents for ((b^2)^3) = b^6.Putting the simplified numerator and denominator together is (b^(16))/(b^6).The six b’s in the denominator cancel six b’s in the numerator for (b^(16))/(b^6) = b^(10). Final answer b^(10).Note, another way to view (b^(16))/(b^6) = (b^(16)) * (b^(-6)) then add the exponents to have the same answer (b^(10))

in a class of 25 students, 15 of them have a cat, 16 of them have a dog and 3 of them have neither

Answers

Answer: The probability that a student chosen at random has a cat and a dog is; P(cat and dog) = 9/25.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, the total number of students is; 25.

15 of them have a cat

16 of them have a dog

while, 3 of them have neither

The information above are drawn in a Venn diagram in the attached image.

where, x = number if students who own a cat and a dog.

Consequently, the total number of students who own a cat, a dog, both or neither is as follows;

15-x + x + 16-x + 3 = 25.

-x = 25 - 34

In essence, x = 9

Therefore, the number of students who own a cat and a dog is 9.

The probability that a student chosen at random has a cat and a dog is therefore;

P(cat and dog) = 9/25.

Tristan used his graduation money of $2000 to set up a savings account. He wants to determine which investment would make the most money.
Find the amount of money each investment would yield after 5 years.

How much would Tristan earn with Account A: 5.7% interest compounded monthly

Answers

The amount that Tristan would earn in 5 years is  $657.30.

How much would Tristan earn?

When an amount is compounded monthly, it means that both the amount invested and the interest that has already accrued increases in value every month or 12 times in a year.

The first step is to determine the future value of the investment.

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^nm

Where:

FV = Future value P = Present value R = interest rate : 5.7% / 12 = 0.475%m = number of compounding = 12N = number of years

$2000 x (1.00475)^(12 x 5)

$2000 x (1.00475)^60

= $2,657.30
