In a box of marbles, the ratio of red marbles to total marbles is 2:5. the ratio of green marbles to total marbles is 3:10. if t

Ratio:

Red : Total 
  2   :    5
 (x2)    (x2)
  4   :   10

Green : Total
  3   :       10

Total of red and green marbles = 4 + 3 = 7

Blue marbles = 10 - 7 = 3

10 parts = 40 marbles
1 part = 40 ÷ 10 = 4
3 parts = 4 x 3 = 12

Answer: There are 12 blue marbles.

In a large population of college-educated adults, the mean IQ is 118 with a standard deviation of 20. Suppose 200 adults from th
cricket20 [7]

Answer: 0.0793

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the IQ of the educated adults be X then;

Assume X follows a normal distribution with mean 118 and standard deviation of 20.

This is a sampling question with sample size, n =200

To find the probability that the sample mean IQ is greater than 120:

P(X > 120) = 1 - P(X < 120)

Standardize the mean IQ using the sampling formula : Z = (X - μ) / σ/sqrt n

Where;  X = sample mean IQ; μ =population mean IQ; σ = population standard deviation and n = sample size

Therefore, P(X>120) = 1 - P(Z < (120 - 118)/20/sqrt 200)

                                 = 1 - P(Z< 1.41)

The P(Z<1.41) can then be obtained from the Z tables and the value is 0.9207

Thus; P(X< 120) = 1 - 0.9207

                          = 0.0793

Choose all that give the correct equation of the line parallel or perpendicular to the given line passing through the point.
andriy [413]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are lines which have the same slope. Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

For the options:

A. Both equations have 7/5 as the slope. They are parallel.

B. The slopes are 1 and -1. These are perpendicular.

C. The slopes are 9/2 and are parallel.

D. The slopes are 7/3 and -3/7. They are perpendicular.

The solution is A and B.

Express the quotient of z1 and z2 in standard form given that <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z_%7B1%7D%20%3D%20-3%5Bcos%28%5C
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Solution : -\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{4}i

Step-by-step explanation:

-3\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{4}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{4}\right)\right]\:\div \:2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi \:\:}{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:\:\:}{2}\right)\right]

Let's apply trivial identities here. We know that cos(-π / 4) = √2 / 2, sin(-π / 4) = - √2 / 2, cos(-π / 2) = 0, sin(-π / 2) = - 1. Let's substitute those values,

\frac{-3\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i\right)}{2\sqrt{2}\left(0-1\right)i}

=-3\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i\right) ÷ 2\sqrt{2}\left(0-1\right)i

= 3\left(-\frac{\sqrt{2}i}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right) ÷ -2\sqrt{2}i

= \frac{3\left(1-i\right)}{\sqrt{2}}÷ 2\sqrt{2}i = -3-3i ÷ 4 = -\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{4}i

As you can see your solution is the last option.
