7 elements will be compared to find 25 using linear search

<h3>What is linear search?</h3>
  • A linear search, also known as a sequential search, is a technique used in computer science to locate an element inside a list.
  • Up until a match is discovered or the entire list has been searched, each element of the list is successively checked.
  • In worst-case linear time, a linear search performs at most n comparisons, where n is the length of the list.
  • A linear search has an average case of n+1/2 comparisons if each element is equally likely to be searched, but the average case can be impacted if the search probability for each element differ.
  • Since other search algorithms and schemes, such the binary search algorithm and hash tables, provide substantially faster searching for all but short lists, linear search is rarely practical.

The length of a rectangular driveway is five feet more than three times the width. The area is 350ft2. Find the width and length
crimeas [40]

Answer:

  • width -- 10 ft
  • length -- 35 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let x represent the width. Then the length will be represented by (3x+5), a value 5 more than 3 times the width.

The area is the product of length and width, so is ...

  A = (3x +5)(x) = 3x^2 +5x

To make the area 350, we can find the value of x from ...

  3x^2 +5x = 350

This can be solved a number of ways. One of them is "completing the square".

  3(x^2 +5/3x) = 350

We choose to divide by 3 and add the square of half the x-coefficient.

  x^2 +5/3x +(5/6)^2 = (350/3) + (5/6)^2

  (x +5/6)^2 = 4225/36 . . . . simplify

  x +5/6 = ±√(4225/36) = ±10 5/6 . . . . take the square root

  x = 10  or  -11 2/3 . . . . subtract 5/6

The positive solution is the one of interest: x = 10.

The driveway is 10 ft wide and 35 ft long.

Mrs. avery is going to randomly select one student from her class to read a poem out loud. there are 151515 boys and 131313 girl
arlik [135]
P(boy) is asking for the probability that a boy will be chosen to read a poem out loud. Since there are 15 boys, we can get the probability by dividing this with the total number of students. This is because out of all the students, there is an equal possibility that each of the 15 boys will be chosen.

\frac{15}{15+13}= \frac{15}{28}=0.5357

ANSWER: The probability that a boy is selected is 0.5357 or 53.57%
