8 0

Answer:

80 × 30 = 2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily round 79 up to 80 and round 31 down to 30. This would make our expression 80 × 30, which is much easier to compute. We just take 8 × 3 (which is 24) and add two zeros onto the end of the number. This yields us an answer of 2,400 which is very close to the actual multiplication of 79 × 31 which is 2,449 (only 49 more than our estimation).

Given circle P, which of the following options are major arcs?

MakcuM [25]

If your asking to select all that apply,

The formula is arc length = θ ( r ) {\displaystyle {\text{arc length}}=\theta (r)} , where equals the measurement of the arc's central angle in radians, and r {\displaystyle r} equals the length of the circle's radius. Plug the length of the circle's radius into the formula.

A marketing firm would like to test-market the name of a new energy drink targeted at 18- to 29-year-olds via social media. A st

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b) The probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

X = an US adult who does not uses social media.

Y = an US adult between the ages 18 and 29.

Z = an US adult between the ages 30 and above.

The information provided is:

P (X) = 0.35

P (Z) = 0.78

P (Y ∪ X') = 0.672

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media as follows:

P (US adult uses social media (X')) = 1 - P (US adult so not use social media)

$=1-P(X)\\=1-0.35\\=0.65$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult uses social media is 0.35.

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 as follows:

P (Adults between 18 - 29 (Y)) = 1 - P (Adults 30 or above)

$=1-P(Z)\\=1-0.78\\=0.22$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is aged 18–29 is 0.22.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media as follows:

P (Y ∩ X') = P (Y) + P (X') - P (Y ∪ X')

$=0.22+0.65-0.672\\=0.198$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult is 18–29 and a user of social media is 0.198.

Identify the vertex of the quadratic function

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

(-2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

On the graph, the vertex is where the bottom of the U is. In general, it's always that same place on the U, but the U could be turned upside down or left or right. Looking at the bottom of the U, count on the x axis first (left 2, which is negative). That's your first number. Then count on the y axis (down 1, again, negative). That's your second number. Hope this helps!
