Given the points A(-1, 2) and B(7, 8), determine the coordinates of point P on directed line segment that partitions in the ratio 1/3. Solution: Method 1: A 1/3 ratio divides the segment into 1 + 3 = 4 equal parts. The direction is from A to B, so use the ratio k from A/P which is 1/4 of the line segment. Hope this helps

I need help with question 6 please, and thank you so much! ;)

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

A) Ms. Hynnes'

B) Mr. Charles'

Step-by-step explanation:

I start by finding the LCM (lowest common multiple) of 5, 9, and 7, which is 315. Then, to calculate the top number, I divide 315 by the denominator to determine how many times I need to multiply the numerator. For 5, it's 63, giving us a numerator of 126. For 9, it's 35, giving us a numerator of 140. For 7, it's 45, giving us a numerator of 135. I then compare the numbers to find the answer.

PLEASE HELPPP ASAPP!! Combine and simplify the following radical expression.

Greeley [361]

After demonstrating the procedure by algebraic means, the expression $(2\sqrt[3]{12} )\cdot (3\sqrt[3]{2} )$ is equivalent to $6\cdot \sqrt[3]{24}$ .

In this question we proceed to simplify $(2\sqrt[3]{12} )\cdot (3\sqrt[3]{2} )$ by algebraic means into a single radical expression when possible, whose procedure is shown below and explained by appropriate definitions and theorems:

$(2\sqrt[3]{12} )\cdot (3\sqrt[3]{2} )$ Given.
$(2\cdot 3) \cdot (\sqrt[3]{12} \cdot \sqrt[3]{2} )$ Commutative property/ Associative property.
$6\cdot \sqrt[3]{24}$ Definition of cubic root/ $\sqrt[n]{a} = \sqrt[n]{b}$ /Result

After demonstrating the procedure by algebraic means, the expression $(2\sqrt[3]{12} )\cdot (3\sqrt[3]{2} )$ is equivalent to $6\cdot \sqrt[3]{24}$ .

A bag contains tiles number 1-10. What is the probability of first selecting a PRIME number, replacing it, then selecting a numb

andrezito [222]

Answer:

0.12 = 12% probability of first selecting a PRIME number, replacing it, then selecting a number less than or equal to 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Probability of independent events:

Suppose we have two events, A and B, that are independent. The probability of both happening is given by:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)$

In this question:

Event A: Selecting a prime number.

Event B: Selecting a number less than or equal to 3

Probability of selecting a prime number:

Between 1 and 10, we have 4 prime numbers(2,3, 5 and 7), out of 10. So

$P(A) = \frac{4}{10}$

Probability of selecting a number less than or equal to 3:

Three numbers(1,2,3) out of 10. So

$P(B) = \frac{3}{10}$

Probability of both:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B) = \frac{4}{10} \times \frac{3}{10} = \frac{12}{100} = 0.12$

0.12 = 12% probability of first selecting a PRIME number, replacing it, then selecting a number less than or equal to 3
