Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

Gavyn has £18 more than Alex

—› G - A = £18

—› 4u - 1u = 3u = £18

1u = £18 ÷ 3

= £6

total units = 4 + 1 = 5

5u = 5 × £6 = £30

Answer:

$\dfrac{11}{30}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Urn U1: 3 red and 2 yellow marbles, in total 5 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{3}{5}=0.6.$

Urn U2: 3 red and 7 yellow marbles, in total 10 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{3}{10}=0.3.$

Urn U1: 1 red and 4 yellow marbles, in total 5 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2.$

The probability to choose each urn is the same and is equal to $\frac{1}{3}.$

Thus, the probability that the marble is red is

$\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.6+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.3+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.2=\dfrac{1.1}{3}=\dfrac{11}{30}.$

Compute the values of dy and Δy for the function y=e^(2x)+6x given x=0 and Δx=dx=0.03.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

dy = 8·dx
Δy = 0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The derivative of your function is ...

y' = dy/dx = 2e^(2x) +6

At x=0, the value is ...

y'(0) = 2e^0 +6 = 8

dy = 8·dx

Δy = y'(0)·Δx

Δy = 8(.03)

Δy = 0.24
