There are 26 prize tickets in a bowl, labeled A to Z. What is the probability that a prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen, n

ot replaced, and then another prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen? Does this represent an independent or dependent event? Explain.

Using it's concept, there is a 0.0308 = 3.08% probability that a prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen, not replaced, and then another prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen. Since the letter is not replaced, the number of outcomes change, hence they are dependent.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

For the first ticket, since 5 out of 26 letters are vogal, the probability is:

5/26.

For the second ticket, since there is no replacement, the probability is:

4/25.

The probability of both tickets is:

p = \frac{5}{26} \times \frac{4}{25} = 0.0308

0.0308 = 3.08% probability that a prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen, not replaced, and then another prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen. Since the letter is not replaced, the number of outcomes change, hence they are dependent.

Answer:

  4. Nelson: 14; Alison: 36

  5. May: 12; April: 18

  7. Student: 7; Instructor: 27   --   caveat emptor

Step-by-step explanation:

4. Quick answer: The time between Alison being 2 times her son's age (age ratio = 4:2) and 3 times her son's age is 11 years. That means each "ratio unit" stands for 11 years. 3 years ago, when Alison was 3 times her son's age, he was 11 and she was 33. Now, he is 14 and she is 36.

<em>Check</em>

In 8 years, he will be 22 and she will be 44, twice his age.

__

If you want to write a system of equations, you can use A for Alison's age and N for Nelson's age.

  A+8 = 2(N+8) . . . . relation of ages in 8 years

  A -3 = 3(N -3) . . . . relation of ages 3 years ago

We can equate expressions for A:

  2(N +8) -8 = A = 3(N -3) +3

  2N +8 = 3N -6

  14 = N

  A = 2(14 +8) -8 = 36

Alison is 36; Nelson is 14.

____

5. Quick answer: The sum of ages 6 years from now will be 36. Then April will be twice May's present age. That is, May's present age is 1/3 0f 36 = 12. April is 30 -12 = 18. Now, April is 18 and May is 12.

<em>Check</em>

10 years from now, April will be 28. That is 4 years more than 2·12 = 24.

__

Once again, you can write a system of equations:

  A + M = 30

  A +10 = 2M +4

Again, equating expressions for A, we have ...

  30 -M = A = (2M +4) -10

  36 = 3M . . . . . simplify, add M+6

  12 = M

  A = 30 -12 = 18

April is 18; May is 12.

_____

7. Makes no sense. The first sentence says the age difference is 20 years. The second sentence says the age difference is 5 years. It can't be both. Something is missing somewhere.

__

If we assume the word "twice" is missing, then the system of equations for Instructor and Student can be ...

  I = S + 20

  I + 8 = 2(S +8) +5

Substituting for I, we have ...

  S +20 +8 = 2S +16 +5

  7 = S . . . . . . subtract S+21

  I = 7+20 = 27

The instructor is 27, the student is 7.

<em>Check</em>

In 8 years, the instructor will be 35 and the student will be 15. At 35, the instructor will be 5 years more than twice the student's age.

__

We have essentially written our own problem statement here. Your problem statement, and your answer, may vary.

Punkt p (1;2k+1) należy do wykresu funkcji f(x)=-4x2+7. Oblicz k
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

k = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

Find k if the point P (-1, 2k + 1) belongs to the graph of the function f (x) = - 4x^2 + 7.

The function is given as

y = f(x) = -4x² + 7

and point (-1, 2k+1) lies on the graph.

This point means that, at x = -1, y = 2k+1

y = -4x² + 7

Substituting the values in

2k + 1 = -4(-1)² + 7

2k + 1 = -4 + 7 = 3

2k = 3 - 1

2k = 2

k = 1

Hence, the point (-1, 2k+1) is (-1, 3)

To check,

y = -4x² + 7

3 = -4(-1)² + 7

3 = -4 + 7

3 = 3

So, this is truly correct.

Hope this Helps!!!
