Let`s assume that points M, N and P are the touching points of those 3 circles:Then:Y M + M Z = 14,Z N + N X = 20X P + P Y = 18And also: M Z = ZN, Y M = P Y and N X = X P.Now we have a system of 3 equations ( Y M, M Z and X P  are the radii of each circle ):Y M + M Z = 14M Z + X P = 20X P + Y M = 18 Y M - M Z = - 14+X P  + Y M = 18 X P - M Z  = 4Y M - M Z = - 14+M Z + X P = 20 X P - Y M = 6  /* ( - 1 )X P  - M Z = 4 X P + Y M = - 6  X P - M Z = 4    Y M - M Z = - 2           Y M + M Z = 14            2 Y M = 12  =>  Y M = 6M Z - 6 = 2  =>   M Z = 8X P + 6 = 18 
 X P = 12
Radii of the circles are: 12, 8 and 6.

If y varies directly as x and y = 42 when x = 6, find the equation that gives the relationship between x and y.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

since K is constant ( the same for every point) we can find k when given any point by dividing the y-coordinate by the x-coordinate.

Use the coordinate grid to determine the coordinates of point A;
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of point P are (-1.4,0.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given A coordinate grid shown from negative 2 to positive 2 on x-axis and negative 2 to positive 2 on y-axis. There are 4 grid lines between a whole unit of the grid.

that means each grid has a value of 0.2.

" A point labeled P is shown at the intersection of 7 grid lines to the left of the y-axis and 3 grid lines above the x-axis "

As P lies on the left of the y-axis and above the x-axis hence the x-value will be negative and y-value will be positive.

According to the given information P lies 7 grid lines to the left of y-axis.

i.e. it has x-value -7×0.2= -1.4

and 3 grid lines above the x-axis i.e. it has y-value:

y-value= 3×0.2=0.6

Hence, the coordinates of Point P are (-1.4,0.6).

katovenus [111]

Complete question :

It is estimated 28% of all adults in United States invest in stocks and that 85% of U.S. adults have investments in fixed income instruments (savings accounts, bonds, etc.). It is also estimated that 26% of U.S. adults have investments in both stocks and fixed income instruments. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places. (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?

Answer:

0.929 ; 0.306

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information:

P(stock) = P(s) = 28% = 0.28

P(fixed income) = P(f) = 0.85

P(stock and fixed income) = p(SnF) = 26%

a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places.

P(F|S) = p(FnS) / p(s)

= 0.26 / 0.28

= 0.9285

= 0.929

(b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?

P(s|f) = p(SnF) / p(f)

P(S|F) = 0.26 / 0.85 = 0.3058823

P(S¦F) = 0.306 (to 3 decimal places)
