2 answers:
we know that
To Round a number
a) Decide which is the last digit to keep
b) Leave it the same if the next digit is less than (this is called rounding down)
c) But increase it by if the next digit is
or more (this is called rounding up)
In this problem we have
We want to keep the digit
The next digit is which is greater than
, so increase the digit
by
to
therefore

Answer: n = 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the bag, we have n counters.
4 of the counters are red.
the rest are blue, then we have:
(n - 4) blue counters.
Now, the probability that Ross takes a blue counter from the bag is equal to the quotient between the number of blue counters (n - 4) and the total number of counters, n
Then the probability is:
p1 = (n - 4)/n
Now he draws another, and it must be blue again, then we can calculate the probability in the same way as above, but he already take a blue counter, so the number of blue counters is (n - 5) and the total number of counters is (n - 1)
The probability of this event is:
p2 = (n - 5)/(n - 1)
The joint probability (the probability that Ross takes two blue counters) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, and we know that this is equal to 1/3, then we have the equation:
1/3 = ( (n - 4)/n)*((n - 5)/(n - 1))
Now let's solve this for n.
n*(n - 1)/3 = (n - 4)*(n - 5)
(n^2 - n)/3 = n^2 - 4*n - 5*n + 20
n^2 - n = 3*(n^2 - 9*n + 20)
n^2 - n = 3*n^2 - 27*n + 60
0 = (3*n^2 - n^2) - 27*n + n + 60
0 = 2*n^2 - 26*n + 60
The two solutions of this equation can be found with Bhaskara's equation:
Then the two solutions are:
n = (26 - 14)/4 = 3
This is not an option, because we know for sure that we have 4 red counters, then this option can be discarded.
The other solution is:
n = (26 + 14)/4 = 40/4 = 10
Then we have n = 10, 10 counters in total.
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the radius of the circle is 12 units, we can calculate the circumference.
2 * pi * r = 2 * pi * 12 = 24 * pi = 24pi.
The arc angle is 240 degrees, and the whole circle would be 360 degrees. So, we can set up an equation.
1 * x = 4 * 4 * pi
x = 16pi
So, your answer is C.
Hope this helps!
