Answer is 7/15 rope remains

We know we start with 900 cm of rope

We know we use 1/5 and 1/3 of the rope

Let’s add 1/5 and 1/3 by finding the lowest common denominator - it’s 15

1/5 = 3/15

1/3 = 5/15

Total 8/15 used of 900 cm

Subtract 8/15 from the whole 15/15

(15/15 is one whole with a common denominator)

15 /15 - 8/15 = 7/15 rope remains

Consider a bag containing four red marbles, three green ones, one transparent one, three yellow ones, and three orange ones.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of red marble = 4
number of green marble = 3
number of transparent marble = 1
number of yellow marble = 3
number of orange marble = 3

Total number of marble except red and green = 3 +3+1

= 7

So, the total number of possible sets of five marbles such that none of them are green or red can be given by

$n\ =\ ^7C_5$

$=\ \dfrac{7!}{(7-5)!.5!}$

$=\ \dfrac{7!}{5!.2!}$

$=\ \dfrac{42}{2}$

= 21

So, the required number of possible sets are 21.

Given the directrix of y = -1 and focus of (0, 3), which is the equation of the parabola?

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the vertex is right between the vertex and the directrix, the y value of the vertex must be (3+(-1))/2=1. The x coordinate will just be the same as that of the focus, or in this case 0. This means that the vertex will be at (0,1). Since the graph opens toward the focus, it will be opening up, and since its vertex is at (0,1), it will have an equation of:

$y=\dfrac{1}{8}x^2+1$

Hope this helps!
