Probability AGAINST a spinner landing on green ...
if 3 are green, then 5 are not green...

Answer:

The answer is 63%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of sections in the spinner = 8

Total number of green sections in the spinner = 3

Hence, the Probability against a spinner landing on a green space if the spinner had 8 sections & 3 of them are green is = $1-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{5}{8}$

= 0.625 ≈ 62.5% rounding to 63%.

The following function represents the value of a house, in dollars, after x years: f(x) = 242,000(1.04)x What does 1.04 represen

zmey [24]

The number 1.04 represents the rate at which the house appreciates, or increases in its price annually.

As according to the values of an exponential equation, which is represented by this: y=ab^x, the a value represents the original price, the b value represents the rate of growth/decay (if growth, you add 1 to the rate, if decay, you subtract the rate from 1), and x represents the amount of times it decays or grows.

As according to the function <span> f(x) = 242,000(1.04)^x, 242,000 is the original price and 1.04 is the rate of growth since 1 has been added to the the 4% annual growth.</span>

The area of a triangle is 45.5 cm2 and the base is 10 cm.

blondinia [14]

The area of a triangle is A=1/2b*h
You have the base (b) and you have the area (A)
So, if you plug in what you know, you get this:
45.5=1/2*10*h
Simplify it:
45.5=5h

Now solve for h
Divide by 5 to get h alone:
9.1=h

Your height is 9.1cm
Hope this helps :)

A triangle is graphed in the coordinate plane. The vertices of the triangle have coordinates (–3, 1), (1, 1), and (1, –2). What

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle is $12\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

$A(-3,1),B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

we know that

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

$P=AB+BC+AC$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance AB

$A(-3,1),B(1,1)$

substitute in the formula

$AB=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AB=4\ units$

step 2

Find the distance BC

$B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$BC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1-1)^{2}}$

$BC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$BC=3\ units$

step 3

Find the distance AC

$A(-3,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$AC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AC=5\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=AB+BC+AC$

substitute the values

$P=4+3+5=12\ units$

Miki has 104 nickels and 88 dimes. She wants to divide her coins into groups where each group has the same number of nickels and

pochemuha

Given :

Miki has 104 nickels and 88 dimes.

She wants to divide her coins into groups where each group has the same number of nickels and the same number of dimes.

To Find :

Largest number of groups she can have .

Solution :

In the given question we need to find the largest number of groups she can have i.e we have to find the LCM of 104 and 88 .

Now , factorizing both of them , we get :

$104=1\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 13$

$88=1\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 11$

Form above , we can say that common factors are :

$HCF=2\times 2\times 2=8$

Therefore , the largest number of groups she can have is 8 .

Hence , this is the required solution .

I don’t understand this someone pls help me! (Question 10)

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

a. f(n) = n(n+1)/2

b. 351

c. 19

d. no; n would not be an integer for f(n) = 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The terms are 1, 3, 6, 10, ...

Each term has the term number added to the previous term. That is, first differences are 3-1 = 2, 6-3 = 3, 10-6 = 4. These differences have a constant difference of 1.

When the 2nd differences are constant, a 2nd degree polynomial can describe the sequence. It is a little bit of trouble to find that polynomial.

For the polynomial ...

$f(n)=an^2+bn+c$

We can substitute values for n and f(n) to get 3 equations in 3 unknowns:

$1=a\cdot1^2+b\cdot1+c\\\\3=a\cdot2^2+b\cdot2+c\\\\6=a\cdot3^2+b\cdot3+c$

Solving these equations by your favorite method gives ...

(a, b, c) = (1/2, 1/2, 0)

That is, the function representing the relationship is ...

f(n) = n(n+1)/2 . . . . the function describing the relationship

b. f(26) = 26(27) = 13(27) = 351 . . . . the number of squares in term 26

c. The number of the term having 190 squares can be found by solving ...

n(n +1)/2 = 190

n(n +1) = 380 = 19(20)

The 19th term will have 190 squares.

d. Terms 5 and 6 are 15 and 21.

17 is not the value of one of the terms in this sequence.
